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. Steele apparently has a problem with patients asking questions as I believe she views this as a challenge to her authority. In addition, she has trouble speaking on the patient’s level in a manner that is both clear and professional. I am glad she ‘fired’ me as a patient. This is too important to invest in a physician who cannot communicate in layman’s terms and does not appreciate patients who do their research.

Dr Steele is a dedicated and excellent Doctor. She is a good listener and provides answers to patient’s and care giver’s questions. Dr Steele doesn’t sugar coat the facts. She will tell you the truth and let you know where you stand. She takes the time to asks questions herself so that she understands your situation.

Dr. Steele does what she thinks is best, but she tried to talk me into treatments, chemotherapy, etc., that I feel are not best for me. Her thinking is rigid and protocol-based. I had Stage 3 cancer and severe anemia. I had two surgeries and declined chemo for good reasons and declined IV iron. I did not go back to Dr. Steele after the first visit because she was rude to me and made me feel unwelcome because I did not want chemo. It has been a year since diagnosis. I am doing fine.

I absolutely loved Dr. Steele and had full confidence in her. She was thorough and very professional. She answered my questions and made sure every scan, test, or necessary medical attention was given to me in a quick and urgent manner. She did not try to sugar coat anything , but I felt very comfortable with her and felt she would do everything she could to determine the source of my cancer. I would highly recommend her to anyone.
