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 Doctor
I have been a patient of Dr. Stella's for several years, he always takes the time to explain everything. Great doctor I would recommend to anyone needing a cardiologist.

Dr. Stella is one of the most thorough Dr’s I have met yet. As they say a heart attack is the ‘silent killer’ and that was almost the case with my father and my family had the ‘best’ care for him at Silver Cross Hospital essentially on the spot clearing out 2 arteries that were clogged almost 98 and 99%. Now my mother sees him as well and I fully trust him with his protocols and recommendations for the ones I love most!

Went to visit Dr. Stella on 10/27. No one in his office was wearing a mask, from the receptionist, to the nurse, to Dr. Stella. When I asked Dr. Stella why he wasn't wearing a mask, he told me that the "virus" was not that bad and to stop listening to scientists. I left without being examined. Had a conversation after that with a doctor who would not give me his name and told me that Dr. Stella was told to wear a mask but it was up to him if he wanted to wear one. I find this terrible, especially since I am a senior citizen with a mitral valve problem. Will never go back.

Terrible. Performed an angiogram on my leg on Dec. 20th. Told me my fema rol artery was blocked and needed a by-pass. Did not recommend anyone. Said he would notify Dr. Bliley my regular cardiologist, who is in the same group. Feb. 4th still have not heard from either. These 2 Drs. are more interested in generating revenue from testing, that is done at the their offices, than caring for patients health.
