    Dr Stakelin is the absolute best doctor I have ever had (and I have had a lot in my 72 years!). She is thorough, extremely knowledgeable but she communicates in a way that issues are totally clear. She is so personable and always makes me feel like we are 2 friends talking. I have a better understanding of my diabetes. I can't praise her enough!

      I love Dr. Stakelin. She always discusses what she is thinking with me and includes my opinion in the treatment. She is very knowledgeable and I have had great results since the first time I went to her. Only one time had my A1C gone above the target numbers and that was my fault.
