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.

Awful patient care
Waited for 30 plus minutes and when she finally came to the room she was short and didn’t seem to care. I felt like just a number! Good thing there are plenty more doctors to choose from because I would sooner die than have to deal with her again!

Provider scheduled two procedures instead of one and when questioned as to why, I was met with hostility. Waited weeks for a call and then had to call them to get answers.

Dr. Steimle is kind, thorough, and down to earth. She treated me with respect and used terminology that I could easily understand. She performed surgery on my hand for me and I'm really grateful for her.

My care involved assessment for venous disease followed by procedures to resolve my circulation issues. Since I had the experience of a previous medical assessment , prior to scheduling with this physician. I need to alert patients to the necessity of a thorough ultrasound assessment of your veins both standing and sitting. Most importantly you need to go to a board certified cardiovascular surgeon. Dr Steimle and her office staff consistently demonstrate expertise and skills at all levels. You can trust your care experience with by seeking a qualified professional which results in a positive outcome.

2 months of medical care including 2 stays in the hospital and yet my problem was not diagnosed. A referral and visit to Dr. Steimle and 5 days later, including a laser vein procedure, I was diagnosed, treated and almost back to normal. I found Dr. Steimle to be very knowledgeable and informative. She took her time and explained everything to me. Her staff and facility are first class, clean, caring and organized. I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Steimle and her practise.

I was in critical condition with my heart at 8 percent ejection fraction-if it hadn’t been for my surgical team I wouldn’t b here 13 years later-she is simply amazing and my cardiologist at Loyola said one of the best in the surgical field-never any issues with her answering questions, bedside manner, etc-would highly recommend her-I am extremely fussy about dr, and definitely going to her -would not question her surgical ability-she literally brought me back to life!

No I would not recommend Dr. Stemle as she never followed through after my initial visit. She was going to research some information and get back to me which she never did. We called her office numerous times but she never followed up with me and I still have no answers to my problem. If she could not do anything for my condition all she had to say was I'm not comfortable or qualified to handle you situation. But no follow up is not professional. The only thing I got was a bill.
