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.

Dr. Stephen treated me many years ago and I was truly blessed because he identified and treated me for a very serious ailment! I appreciate his services so much and would definitely use his services again!

His staff are unprofessional. For over 4 years I have been trying to get life insurance and his staff will not respond to the calls or faxes of the insurance specialists. I have seen it first hand. Always some excuse of them changing their systems. HELLO??!! It has been nearly a year and no follow up to my personal visits to the office.

Dr. Stephens is a quack and negligent. Unfornately he has been treating my 87 year old father for the last 4 years. My family has tried to get my dad to change doctors. My dad ended up in emergency and should have been release to a Skilled Nursing Facility for Occupational and Physical Therapy. Dr. Stephens and his Care Coordinator, Ron will lie to your face about the status of paperwork. They will send you on a wild goose chase only to find out they lied about what they have done and what they are going to do. It is hard to contact him, no one answers the phone at his office. I would not recommend him and his team to treat a fly.

Long story short went to Doctor Stephens over two months ago for a sever pain in left foot, during this time only saw the doctor in person about three times with a grand total of about 10 minutes face time. Have had four blood tests and two x rays, one of which was wrong. No closer to resolving my issue then the day I walked in. His staff is totally incompetant and I feel I wasted a lot of time. Still in a lot of pain and it seems he couldn't care less.

Dr. Stephens is a great Dr., but his office/staff are ridiculous. 20+ minute wait times ON THE PHONE, just trying to contact a human being. While on hold, am asked to leave a message EVERY TEN SECONDS but nobody has EVER returned a call from this office.
