Patient Review

Dr. Steiner was rude. He did not want to hear what I had to say and consistently talked over me. I couldn't explain anything to him without him interrupting me. He wants me back in 6 months...I will not be keeping that appointment.

  The resident was better to talk to. He listened and offered suggestions/answers but, the doctor - not so much. I felt like he was blaming me for not losing weight.

  I made a point to inform surgical team about my severe allergy to tape on areas ex... my abdomen. But I still woke up from surgery with tape bandages on which created a miserable experience.
