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.

FANTASTIC SURGON !!
Had a hip replacement surgery done by Dr. Stefl on March 7th 2021. He tryed a few injections , first. Then decided a replacement was best. Well I ran the Chicago Marathon this past October 9th. 2022. And live an active life. The surgery was life changing. It took 3 different doctors to finally give me pain relief. Dr Stefl was the Doctor. I have only good things to say about him and his staff. I hope this helps anyone considering replacement. It's well worth doing. No more sharp pinching in my groin.

He has a hard tIme listening to the patient - he did not acknowledge what I told him about my symptoms. He ordered an X-ray the day of my appointment, which was unnecessary, since I had a current MRI. Evidently he did not review my case prior to ordering the X-ray. He lacked in professional appearance. I definitely would not recommend him.
