My initial contact with Dr. Giesler was a phone call. I inquired about my qualifications for HIFU, a treatment for prostate cancer. He advised me to get a procedure to reduce the size of my prostate and then, 3 months after the procedure, come to see him to determine if it worked and if my cancer could be treated with HIFU. I scheduled the appointment, as advised, and drove 1.5 hours to his office for the evaluation. Dr. Giesler did not show up. His PA came to see me. I inquired about checking the size of my prostate and was told the machine was broken. This was the entire purpose of the appointment, but, NO Giesler, NO ultrasound. The PA said to come back in 6 months. I have cancer, and want it treated before it reaches the point where some treatments are no longer feasible. I drove 1.5 hours home, having learned nothing. Dr. Giesler's office seemed to be completely ignorant of the purpose of my appointment. They could have rescheduled if the machine was down.

I'm seeing Gordon for my follow ups since bladder surgery in 2018. He is great. Always reassuring, knows what questions to ask, and has a good sense about where you are physically and emotionally. Yes, men there is an emotional side to this. Dr. Geisler did my surgery and he was great. Had seen another urologist and switched to Dr. Geisler after one meeting with him. He and Gordon know how to put you at ease but let you know the importance of your decision. They are a great team! So glad I switched to Dr. Geisler for surgery-great surgical hands and a warm heart that listens to patients. Gordon's follow-up work could not be better. He even helped me remove a very aggressive unfeeling female prep person (Ki) prior to my scope up the private area which was a great relief to me. It difficult enough to work in that area, and then to have an inappropriate unfeeling prepper about to clamp the big boy way too roughly. Ki, don't let her in your room if she is still there. No Way. The Guys are the Best, Surgeons, and Scoping and Follow-up (Dr Eric Geisler and Gordon Lang!!). They care deeply about your health and your recovery, guaranteed.

Felt we were treated rudely and disrespectfully. Getting phone calls returned is a nightmare. Records include so much wrong info and ended up with no helpful treatment

After 4 other urologists and benign, benign and bph diagnosis again and again....I found the DR. that found the cancer . The grade 5 cancer. It was always like a spark plug was going to ignite my bladder unless 10 times a day i passed 4 oz. Finally 5 years after demanding an MRI I by divine providence that I found the only surgeon in the Austin Texas area that could operate by the guide of a 4K 3D MRI and kill it... out patient. 1 month afterward, 20 oz. without any sudden urge and a PSA that crashed from 22 to 1.1 that remains a success at the one year post op point tells me that DR. Giesler is the precise solution to the rest of my life! He found it where no one else looked. Don't mess with this stuff, it will kill you! Thank you sir for being beyond the quick answers. I'm 72 years old and have the urinary system of 50 years ago. Roger in round Rock.

I have no choice but to vent here. Worse service EVER. no return phone calls, unprofessional nurses, never met the Dr. after three visits. enlarged Prostate but never suggested a drug (that I found out from my niece (a physician assistant) that there was a drug to decrease the size of the prostate. Why would they not have suggested it?
