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. He saw me within 10 minutes of my arrival. He was congenial, knowledgeable and interacted well with his staff and with me as a patient. When I left I had a better understanding of what was going on with my. hip and of my options for treatment. I would recommend Dr. Stiefel highly.

I can’t say enough about Dr. Stiefel! I am only 29 and I have had to have very extensive surgeries on both knees for multiple dislocations. He took the time to explain to me every single detail about my injury and every option I had. It’s hard to find a doctor who actually takes time and listens. Dr. Stiefel addressed every concern and put my mind at ease. My surgeries went great and I haven’t had any issues with my knees since. He solved my issue of knee dislocations that I had for 10 years. After my surgeries I received the best care with physical therapy at VOA. They were so encouraging and took such great care of me to make sure I recovered well. Thank you again VOA for such great care.

I am an experienced ER RN who has been around more doctors than I can count. When I experienced a potentially career ending injury, Dr Stiefel is the one I turned to. I could not ask for better care. His clinical skills and bedside manner are both excellent . You will not go wrong if you are looking for excellent care.
