He explained what he thought was best for my problem. He seemed very concerned and was very helpful explaining things to me. It was my first visit with him and my friend and I really liked him.

Took ample time discussing my condition and explaining what would happen in the appointment and future appointments. Took extra time to address my concerns and educate me about the issues. I am extremely satisfied with both the level of care and the time the provider spent with me. Dr. Stephan and Emily (PA) went out of their way to put me at ease and explain everything. Exceeded my expectations!

Not sure I will use Dr Stephan for my surgery due to lack of trust that he will follow original surgical plan from earlier this summer. Dr did not listen to my questions & only talked about what he wanted to discuss. He never answered my one critical questions & all his answers were very vague. I am skilled at communicating & getting down to the precise point of a conversation, but the Dr would not comply to my requests for concise answers. I left very frustrated & confused!
