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.

HORRIBLE: This Dr. is part of the medical industrial complex. My 90 y.o. mom had a "mild" heart attack and was 100% better the next day. SADLY for her, Dr. Stechel was on duty (NS Hospital) and claimed she needed Angioplasty and stent. In our conversation he denied EVIDENCED-BASED research that showed no benefit to surgery over drugs for a patient like my mom existed. READ THE FACTS (2019): A large, international study led by Stanford and New York University found that invasive procedures are no better than medications and lifestyle advice at treating heart disease that's severe but stable. She survived the Angiplasty procedure and it was determined NO STENT NECESSARY! These Dr.s need a dose of IMPLEMENTATION SCIENCE. Stop relying on 30 year old info...rely on EVIDENCE BASED MEDICINE!!! Don't know if Docs like Stechel are stubborn old school or if there is an overwhelming profit motive. Either way, WATCH OUT!

I was totally impressed with Dr. Stechel. He took so much time with me and explained all of my concerns. He knew I was very anxious and treated me with so much patience...I am so happy he was recommended to me.
