Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Caring, Thorough, and Highly Competent
Dr. Stumacher has been my primary care physician for many years, since the days when she first worked with Dr. Milligan. She is extremely thorough, kind, and patient. I like how she completes follow-up calls whenever I am ill or needs to report lab results. I highly recommend Dr. Stumacher. She has treated all my family members.

So caring and knowledgeable
Dr Stumacher is incredible. She is kind, patient and extremely thorough. She is very passionate and has treated me for years with such compassion. I suffer from anxiety and get nervous going to any doctor but she puts me at ease every time. I trust her whole heartedly. My husband sees her as well and we couldn’t be happier to have found a doctor like her!

Dr. Stumacher always takes the time to review your past history, past prescriptions and discuss how you feel. She will always follow up test results with a personal phone call day or night. No doctor I've had does this. Would recommend her to everyone.
