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.

Doesn't know organs
I had a cyst on my female organs. He told me it was on my kidney. I went to my main doctor and that doctor told me it was on a female organ. Not the kidney.

A great doctor .
After reading this previous review I feel it is unfair . I searched a question on google . Can a kidney cyst be mistaken for an ovarian cyst? Ko et al5 reported an unusual case of hydronephrotic pelvic kidney mimicking an ovarian cyst. Neena et al6 similarly reported an ectopic hydronephrotic kidney masquerading as an ovarian cyst during pregnancy.Nov 30, 2015 So there is at least one reported instance. Probably thousands . Without a mri how would a person know . Could be a number of things . I have had great experience with Dr StecKelberg . He has come off as someone who is highly intelligent. I can understand at the time someone being mad . But drs have to decide what they think something is . And even Drs are human . He went with what he was told was hurting and based his opinion on that . I trust him with my life . He’s my Dr .

I hate to even give him one star. I was in the Emergency Room at the hospital with abdominal pain. He had a x ray done and told me that I had a cyst on my kidney. I went to my main doctor at Syracuse and that doctor told me, " It isn't on your kidney. It is on your ovary." Needs to go back to medical school and learn the female organs!
