PATIENT COMMENTS

Learn about our survey

9/9/2022 He appears very capable, but I had just one visit with him.
9/10/2022 Dow to earth doctor. Didn’t blast me with medical terms
8/12/2022 Because he seems very knowable with questions asked.
7/20/2022 Dr. Stengel was thorough and professional. Willing to answer any questions I had. Seemed interested in me as a person as well as as a patient.
9/11/2022 The Dr. Answers all my questions and explains what I don’t understand
8/24/2022 Relatively speaking, he still is my 'new' doctor after being with the one who retired a very long time, which Stengel replaced.
11/7/2022 I do not know if this is an issue with Dr. Stengel as much as it is with the clinic and billing. However, Dr. Stengel did not make me aware that a physical exam does not include speaking with the doctor. My bill should have been $0 for a physical. Instead I received a $131 bill because it was coded as a visit for "back pain." I scheduled my appointment as a preventative care physical. I checked in/out with reception as a physical. The only reason I am being charged $131 is because I replied to Dr. Stengel's line of questioning with the fact that I have chronic back pain. I was not aware I had to refrain from disclosing any medical issues with my doctor during a physical exam.
