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 Stucky explains the problem and proposed solution and how he does it in very clear terms. He understands the nature of my autoimmune disease and how it interacts with my specific care. I feel so confident before, through, and after the surgery especially the healing process.

Dr. Stucky gave an accurate preview of the procedure/surgery which he was required to repair my fractured wrist. His manner and conversational description helped to reduce my anxiety over my injury. The day of the surgery, Dr. Stucky and the hospital staff kept me informed and calm. He explained clearly what I should expect following my surgery. I was assured that if any questions or problems arose that help would be readily available. At my post-op appointment, Dr. Stucky answered questions and recounted what had been done to repair my wrist. Wow! Those nerve blocks are amazing. The numbness lasted twenty-six hours which was a relief. Recovery will take a few more weeks, but I know that if I need anything help is just a phone call away.

Dr. Stucky is always pleasant. His staff are as well. He explains everything about the procedures he is going to do. He did a knee replacement and I did very well. He is now taking care of my other knee. I have confidence he will take care of it as well as he did the other knee. I highly recommend Dr. Stucky
