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.

Excellent Doctor
My experience with Dr Stewart has always been excellent. I recommend him to my friends whenever they have orthopedic problems. He cares about his patients!

Dr Stewart is an extremely knowledgeable professional that takes the time to explain conditions thoroughly. He has performed 3 ACL reconstructions for my children and is now treating myself for a knee injury. I would highly recommend him.

Recommend to all - from another HCP
Dr. Stewart has many years of clinical knowledge and experience in his profession. He is straight to the point, listens well, performs rigorous and in-depth exams, and offers advice and medical judgment regarding the next steps that need to be taken. I trust him to take care of my children and if necessary perform needed procedures, knowing and trusting they are in capable hands.

Pleased
Met Dr. Stewart yesterday after he consulted my ED visit on Sunday at Zeeland Hospital. I did not understand why I couldn’t see him vertically since he had my x-rays and CT Scan. But when I was able to get an appointment the day after my injury to my knee and found him to have a good sense of humor I was pleased. I was more pleased he was able to show 3 fractures not one on the CT scan and that he did not predict the future and took a wait and see attitude till our next appointment and see how I am healing. Glad he was on call and I did not have to go to Grand Rapids with my pain level.

Knee Surgery
We have been watching my knee for more than a few years but I knew surgery was inevitable. Dr. Stewart explained the procedure and made sure I was comfortable going forward. No pressure to have the procedure done. Fully confident in his abilities.

Shoreline orthopedic understaffed
Went 29 Aug 2023 for a review of my medical records to schedule a surgery for my injury. After poor communication and a 1:15 wait I decide to switch locations to an area that can meet a timeline. It’s been a week and they still haven’t transferred my information to the new location. Unreal how the medical field has such a double standard for timely customer service. A week to send over some Information that is digital is unreal. Like I said you guys are understaff and need to fix this slow turn over rate. My time matters to me. I wish it mattered for shoreline orthopedic.

I had an interior and anterior meniscus tear. Wife said I was on the table for all of 12 minutes. She couldn't even finish calling my Mom to let her know that I had just gone into surgery, and I was back. Was cleared on 10 day follow up visit, and hiked to the top of Diamond Head in Waikiki on day 12. Dr. Steward knows his stuff, and rocks it!!

Dr Stewart performed arthroscopic surgery on my left knee to fix a torn medial meniscus. Long story short: surgery was successful- the pain, which I had lived with for six months, is gone. Every aspect of this experience was absolutely top notch: original appointment, scheduling, pre-op, hospital personnel, post-op including helpful series of informative texts, calls from both hospital and Dr Stewart , follow-up appointment, referral to PT, etc. 100% Recommended!!

Dr Stewart and his team provided exceptional care and support. Facing surgery is an anxious time. Dr Stewart and his staff made me feel well cared for. All my questions were answered in a timely manner. I found the post-op texts extremely helpful. Having the exercises and videos made it easy to follow. One of the greatest things I appreciated must was the encouragement to stay positive. Understanding my healing process and what I might be experiencing made this personal, which was helpful.

Two weeks ago today Dr Stewart performed knee arthroscopic to repair a torn meniscus on my right knee. Today I am pain free and walking normal once again. I had the same surgery on my left knee three years ago and I never once hesitated to call his office this time around. His staff are very nice, helpful, and caring individuals. The automated text I received before and after my surgery were extremely helpful and timely.
