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.

Great physician. Very through and personable.

Dr Sterman is an amazing doctor. She is kind, caring and very medically sound. She spends as much time as needed with you and listens to every word you say. Always willing to help if there are any problems.

One of the rudest, most dismissive and curt physicians I have ever known. This practice is phenomenal as a whole and I love all of the other providers and staff there, but I will NEVER see Dr. Sterman again nor would I recommend her. It is particularly disconcerting when a woman treats another woman like her concerns are foolish, especially when the patient is also a medical provider. You should always feel comfortable seeing your health care provider, but I've always felt this to be especially true in women's health. Comfort and confidence are the last words I would use to describe my experience with Dr. Sterman, which is really unfortunate in a group this lovely.

Dr. Sterman is one in a million! The time she takes at each appointment to make sure you are doing ok, explain whatever diagnosis or concern you have is unbelievable. I never felt rushed or like I was just another patient. I have a very complex issue that is tied to my Chron's Disease and she totally puts me at ease. If I had to do it all over again, my only wish is that I would have found her years ago.
