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.

Outstanding doctor
I will start off by saying I would definitely recommend Dr. Stein but this review is to give credit where credit is due. Earlier this week I had an appointment right after lunch (which to me is the best time to go) and was greeted by a nice young lady. Appointment went well but at check out the person was clearly on the phone getting insurance benefits and did not even acknowledge I was there. After a few minutes the same young lady that checked me in noticed and took it upon herself to check me out. I made sure to get her name so that I could praise her for her hard work. Thank you Anna. Thank you for taking your time checking me out while also checking in patients.

Exceptional Doctor - 5 stars
Dr Stanley Stein is is an exceptional gastroenterologist. I highly recommend him. Dr Stein was very professional, thorough, and took time to review my health history and figure out what had caused anemia. My primary care physician thought I’d need 2 procedures. Dr Stein recommend a colonoscopy and did not push additional tests or procedures. The consultation gave me information and reassurance I’d chosen the right doctor. I did not have a long wait but it would have been worth it for the time he spends with his patients. I got to see his office and interacted with a number of his staff. All were helpful, courteous, and Covid safe. I remember Jackie’s name. My procedure was yesterday. It was very easy. A number of polyps were removed potentially saving my life. It was the right decision to have the procedure and the best decision to chose Dr Stein. H. Harris

I had my first colonoscopy at age 65 when I first started on Medicare. I was nervous as I know I was a late starter, but Dr. Stein and his staff eased my apprehensions. Dr. Stein was personable, knowledgeable, kind and caring : everything amyone could want in a physician. His wit and humor allayed my fears and put me at ease. Highly recommended!

Absolutely the best! Have been going to him for years- very prompt, professional, to the point and very knowledgeable. Have many friends who have started to see him and continue to go back. Feel completely safe when having my procedures done.

I rattled off a list of complaints I had and he asked me if anything I ever swallowed got stuck in my throat. I said once a vitamin did but washed down with some water. All of my symptoms were stricken and he became fixated on diagnosing me with dysphagia. I DO NOT have difficulties swallowing, AT ALL! Then he tells me that I should have an endoscopy and colonoscopy at almost $600 out of MY pocket. Took me into his office and started by telling me what I don't have. If I don't have it, then I don't care. Then proceeded to tell me about dysphagia and esophageal strictures. I literally had to look this up again to see if I was missing anything and I have ZERO symptoms of either of these issues. What the heck?!

Dr. Stein saved my life (or so I like to tell people that). Dr. Stein's staff is always welcoming and kind. They treated me like they actually took the time know me...because they did! Dr. Stein is incredibly professional! He calls you into his office and sits you down to discuss ALL that is going on with you. And he actually LISTENS! Even if it's not GI related, he will be so quick to recommend you to someone that will "fix you right up". He's passionate about helping people. He loves what he does. He loves his patients. And he loves his staff. I've been going to Dr. Stein for 11 years since he diagnosed me and I will never go to another GI doctor as long as he still practices. I even live 1.5 hours from him now and I still make the drive because he's worth it! Thank you Dr. Stein for changing my life and saving my life!

The colonoscopy process was unbelievably easy, as compared to what was expected. Dr. Stein was caring and explained the procedure, as well as called personally to follow-up. I was very impressed with him and his entire staff.

I have been seeing Dr. Stein for quite some time now and he is a great doctor but this review is for one of his staff members. I have had issues with my insurance lately and Ana has helped me so much in figuring everything out. She’s been very patient with me and I appreciate that so much.
