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.

Completely disappointed
Dr Stengler was fine until he wasn’t. His receptionist is very rude. He is focusing on money more and more. It’s sad to see an office I once liked is now a place I have left because of completely avoidable things. Good luck getting refills on prescriptions if the Dr is away since apparently they don’t have that figured out. I was rudely hung up on for absolutely no reason.

Trustworthy Doctor
Dr. Stengler has been my PCP for a number of years, and I'm so glad he is. He listens, and bases his knowledge and treatment on well-founded research and studies. I trust him and he has helped me a lot with hormone and digestive issues. Sometimes it takes trying a couple of different things before we find out what works, but I always feel that he has my best interest at heart.

Digestive Problem after R Knee Surgery
Dr Stengler was quick to zero in on my digestive issues. I had been to Urgent Care and Emergency Room , but was not properly diagnosed. Dr Stengler took blood and I provided a stool sample. As soon as the Stool Lab results were received, Dr Stengler prescribed a antibiotic that cleared my problem in three days. Thanks Dr Stengler!

Helps Keep Me in Good Shape
Almost every time I see Dr. Stengler, we go over my latest blood test results together, and I learn something new about my body or myself to improve or correct in order to keep in good health and good shape. Sometime those results may lead to changes in prescriptions and supplements, and maybe also in diet and behavior. Although my other medical or health professionals may ask about what (food) supplements I take, he is the only one of mine who looks favorably at using supplements at an optimum (not deficiency) level for health promotion. While in the waiting area, I have often checked out copies of his books that have helped with, for example, specific supplements for medical issues and their dosage and timing. He’s a good listener and usually very soft-spoken.

I've been a patient of Mark Stengler, N.M.D for well over a decade and for good reason. He's an excellent physician and diagnostician. The care he provides is highly individualized and specific for each patient (so no one size fits all approach). He's always very kind and takes his time to answer any questions to be sure you're well informed about either your condition and or treatment. Having previously worked in the medical field myself, I highly recommend this very astute and professional doctor.

I have been a patient of Dr Stengler for 10 yrs. I contacted his office after seeing him on a TV show and new I wanted him as my Dr. I live out of state so my first appointment was by phone and that was my first step to healing. (I do also make in office visit) I was taking a prescription drug for panic attacks and wanted help with getting off of them. I will forever be grateful to him for helping me to achieve that and also with other health issues. I’m thankful for his knowledge, thoughtfulness and understanding throughout the years. I believe everyone should have a Dr like him as he is a Dr who listens.

Every time I visit, the staff is always extremely welcoming and helpful. They are very prompt, professional, and kind. Dr. Stengler has helped me solve many health problems and genuinely cares about his patients. He works with you to get to the bottom of your health problems using natural tools instead of prescribing you generic pills like other doctors do. Overall, would highly recommend him!

Dr. Stenger is an amazing physician. What I appreciate about Dr. Stengler so much is his concern to treat an illness or symptom at the root cause. He is highly knowledgeable on all the latest natural approaches to wellness as well as open to conventional methods when needed. Dr. Stengler truly does care about his patient and takes the time needed to help them understand their condition and the plan to treat it. He has helped me with female hormonal issues as well as weight loss. I can't thank him enough for his care that he has given me!

Dr. Stengler has been my personal naturopath for over 20 years. He is brilliant and has helped me address various health concerns naturally and effectively. His knowledge of scientific studies related to health concerns and natural supplementation has helped me stay in peak health. At 69, I feel like I'm 49.

I would trust Dr. Stengler with my life. My family and friends have been seeing Dr. Stengler for years. He has helped me and many others overcome difficult health obstacles. Recently, my son had a perforated ear for years. After seeing ENT after ENT, we were preparing for surgery. Yet, after a week of Dr. Stengler’s homeopathy, the hole closed! He has helped with hormone balance and getting to the root problems for me and others I’ve referred. He has saved lives and I will continue to go to Dr. Stengler for all of our health needs. His scope of knowledge is incredible! He is a great listener and not only helps with healing, but gets to the root of the problem. He has treated my kids for hyperactivity, focus and we have seen incredible results! He has helped identify allergies and help with overall health. I highly recommend Dr. Stengler!

I have been seeing Dr. Stengler for about 14 years for hormone balancing, thyroid issues and any other health issue that arise. My 15 year old daughter has been a patient since she was 3 yrs old. Dr. Stengler has been able to resolve long standing health problems that some of my specialists have not been able to. For example, I had been given antibiotics needlessly for many years with no resolution for "throat or ear infections" where Dr. Stengler concluded it was not an infection, prescribed a homeopathic medicine that cleared it up on one day! He resolved my thyroid problem with natural medicine as I could never take pharmaceuticals and get relief. Because of Dr. Stengler my daughter has only had to take antibiotics once for 5 days over her entire life. Today, he gave my daughter an effective healthy alternative to a long standing acne problem where nothing else has worked. And to boot, he is super nice, caring, always in a good mood and his staff is great!! Always recommend him!!

Dr Stengler, has been my doctor for coming up on 10 yrs and he has walked me thru many health issues including Lyme disease. He never gave up on me and and has always treated me with both respect that I know my body well and never gave up! He is the best doctor I have ever been too and is always searching for more ways to help people. So many health challenges these days with diet, spraying, auto immune etc. He is a always open to learning more. I have written very detailed review with updates and such on the other site (can't use the name on here I guess) if you would like to read more. You can't go wrong with Dr. Stengler, from bio identicals to the unknown, he's you doctor! God Bless!

Dr. Mark Stengler and his office are the Best...hands down! I’ve been a patient since Sept., 2018 while I’ve been healing stage 4 BC. From the first moment of our first appointment we felt taken care of. Dr. Stengler really listens and cares about your well being. He never tired of our many questions that first visit and even welcomed more. He never hesitates to pop in the infusion room with a kind word and a smile for everyone. His front office staff is top notch, with some much deserved shout outs going to Roxana, Deidre, Regina and Tiffany. They are angels working the front desk, very patient, very organized and very professional. A well oiled machine, that is for sure! Nurse Peggy and NP Heidi are God’s healers here on earth. They work with so much passion and love for what they do, you can’t help but smile even when you’re not feeling well. I don’t know what I’d do without this amazing team of people helping me heal my cancer.I feel you’ll be very happy with The Stengler Center

Dr. Stengler has provided me with sound, sensible, effective advice and prescriptions since 2007, especially with regard to Bio-ID HRT and DHEA for hormonal balance, adrenal strength and overall health. His advice and prescriptions are backed by meticulous, far-ranging research including current studies and his own clinical experience, well-considered judgment and prudent assessments. Dr. Stengler approaches problems with common sense and an open mind. He is ethical and empathetic. The best.
