Dr. Thomas Stauch, MD

Dr. Stauch is always upbeat and very personable, as well as professional. He listens and gives honest suggestions/recommendations. All of my trigger finger surgeries were successful and fairly easy. I highly recommend Dr. Stauch. (His staff is also friendly and personable and I am always seen promptly.)

We were able to get an appointment very quickly. Our wait time was extremely short. The office staff were friendly and competent. We loved Dr. Stauch. He was willing to listen to my husband go on way too long, explained very clearly what the problem was and was very clear about what we could expect and how to deal with the issue. Highly recommend.

I visited Dr. Stauch on 6/3/20 to obtain a shot for a"trigger finger" malady. The entire process of checking in, completing account details and the visit with Dr. Stauch was superb. The appointment was scheduled for 3:20 pm and that was the exact time the Dr. met with me. Given the extra precautions necessary due to the pandemic, executed in a timely manner by all employees, was indicative of a well trained and organized operation. The most pleasant development was after the finger shot was given I informed Dr. Stauch I had yet another malady: a bruised shoulder. Without hesitation, he ordered X-rays be taken, after which he made an examination informing me nothing was broken but appeared to be a rotator cuff malady. From there he proposed additional steps. In brief, Dr. Stauch did a great job, with a high degree of professionalism and orthopedic expertise.

Not impressed. I went to him for what he may have considered a minor issue, but it was important to me. I use my hands for detailed , precision work. He dismissed my earnest questions with an air of arrogance and laughed at my concern that it might be connected to another health issue I have. Recently, in doing research in Pubmed I found out that there was indeed a connection between both my health conditions. He said, "You're going to need surgery". Maybe, but not by him.

I moved to the area with a fracture which had not healed after a year of treatment. Stauch was recommended. I was informed by the office he would not see me until I provided all xrays, records which I did along with current status of continued swelling and pain and inability in regard to any activity involving lifting, range of motion, weight bearing, etc. I received a call from his office saying he could not help me tho he provided no assessment or xray. No explanation was provided.

Dr. Stauch is very knowledgeable, professional, intellegent and kind. He gives treatment options, explains them well and proceeds according to patient wishes. I chose the less painful treatment option, leaving open the possibility of the more painful options if this does not solve my problem. I would not go to another hand/arm/shoulder doctor or surgeon, I trust him completely.

I am nearing 60 and have been seen by a lot of doctors in my lifetime. Dr. Stauch is one of the most caring and friendly doctors I have ever met. He did a great job of diagnosing my shoulder problem and repaired it through surgery. In addition, his team in the surgical room are as friendly and caring as Dr. Stauch is.

DT. Stauch was very upfront and open about my medical issue. He recommended options for treatment, explaining each one. He had a friendly, yet professional demeanor. I had two office visits and am going back for a surgical consultation.
