My first impression of Dr Steinberg was wow he's shorter than I expected...lol...and he's cute. All jokes aside he seemed very concerned about making sure that I new all of the facts good, bad, and ugly of having WLS. Very nice and personable.rnrnDr Steinberg's office staff is the best those ladies are on top of their game, they let you know what you need and response times are usually withing 24hrs. Four stars for them and their service ****.rnrnAftercare is a big factor with Dr.S, he strongly emphasis that this is a lifestyle change not a miracle cure, and it has to be maintained every single day with exercise, proper diet, daily vitamins, and support groups.rnrnOverall on a scale of 1 to 10 Dr Steinberg and his staff rates an 11!!
Knowledgeable, Honest. I've met him 3 times so far. Once at the initial introductory meeting. Once when I had my first consultation and the most recent when I saw him after I was approved and signed the paperwork. He's a busy person but took the time to discuss what I wanted answers to. His staff is friendly and caring, again very busy. I am waiting out the weeks between being approved and the actual "event." I'll have a better opinion after that point. But so far I feel I am in good hands. It's not what I saw on some of the TV shows that explore this process, but again it's TV.
Close enough though, just that the pace in the office is faster. More to come!
The first impression of him was admiration. I had already heard great things and when we first me, he grabbed my hand and smiled and I felt totally comfortable. The office staff are kind and responsive. For me, surgical competence and bedside manner are BOTH important and he has it all. My PCP referred me to him after I mentioned Dr. Duncan and it was the best referral I ever received because the organization and responsiveness is hands down 100% better. If my experience is this good out of the blocks, I can't wait to have surgery because I know God will protect me and guide the hands of this wonderful man to a successful recovery.
When I first met Dr. Steinberg, I was totally impressed and ready for my insurance approval. I felt at the end of the siminar that I had made a WONDERFUL decision. He made sure everyone's questions were answered and the answers were very thorough. His office staff has been as helpful as possible and I have only heard positive reviews from his patients.rnrnOne area Dr. S made sure to emphasize were the risks involved with surgery. I have told my best friend and step dad of my wonderful experience with Dr. S and they are both considering going to him if all else fails.rnrnIf I had to do this over again, I'd do it in a heart beat and not change a single thing. Dr. S made my mother and cousin feel secure and assured that everything was well. He's overall just a great surgeon! I'd recommend everyone to him! =)
Dr. Steinberg and the rest of his team are absolutely WONDERFUL! My initial meeting was great. I was immediately put at ease by Dr. Steinberg and the office staff. At times, I can be a bit goofy. In one day I have called about four times. My questions and concerns were always and are always addressed in a very caring, patient way. I never feel rushed when I go up to an appointment. I knew I was in excellent hands and was not even nervous on the day of my surgery. Dr. Steinberg is always warm, friendly, funny, kind, and genuinely seems to care. He is the total package having both surgical competence and an excellent bedside manner. Before I made the choice to have the surgery, I was very well informed of all risk, expectations, etc. I relly feel like this office is pulling for me every step of the way. I could go on and on about dr. Steinberg and his staff. I thank everyone of them. I would encourage anyone who is considering a WLS to contact Dr. Steinberg's office at once. You won't be disappointed. I do not have anything negative to say and I have never had an unpleasent visit.
My surgeon is the Greatest. He is so caring and he is so concerned about his patients. I just love him so much. He takes time with you, and that is so important to me and I know to others.
His staff is also so caring also. Kathy is always there when you need to ask a question. She is so sweet.
I am so glad to have Dr. Scott Steinberg. I am so blessed. He is my ANGEL.
He was very nice, and very good speaker.rn Not once did it change. rnVery nice, and have a amazing office, and very knowledgeable. He should be in your list to check out. rn I would say he is about a 7 on aftercare. He makes sure you are set up at home. rnI don't live close enough to go to his WL Groups. rn I am a nurse, I know there are risks, I addressed them with him.rn I would rate him a 10!rnBoth surgical competence and bedside matter are a must... he has both!
