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.

Dr.Stack performed two parathyroidectomies on me at the age of 17. He told me and my family on two occasions he had found the adenoma and would remove. Both surgeries were 4 hours of exploratory not 30 min as he advised us. Even after the first he told my parents if he did not see the adenoma he would come out. He did not and proceeded with another 4 hour surgery. Results of this surgery were taking out 90% of my good thyroid. Making me Hypo-thyroidal and on meds the rest of my life while, also not finding the adenoma or tumor that was the actual problem. I would not recommend this man as a doctor or a person after what I’ve been through.

Just had parathyroid surgery. Dr. Stack was extremely courteous to my wife and family post op. He and his team are tops, very profession and my recovery has been much less painful than I had anticipated and the food here at the hospital has been very good. Summary: Very happy and pleased with my experience.
