"My first impression of Dr. Steward was that he was very compassionate towards MO people and that his main interest is in helping us to reach our weight loss goals. He is in this to help people.
My impression of Dr. Steward only got better. Whenever I visited his office he always took the time to answer all of my questions and he never made me feel like he was rushed to move on to the next patient. I felt that I was the most important focus of his day whenever I was there! Awesome!
I did have some complaints about his office staff. Some of them can be a little rude and they don't really act like they have time to answer your questions. Not all have been like that but one especially. I simply learned to ignore her rude attitude because Dr. Steward is an excellent Dr. and I thought it was worth putting up with. I do think he could do better with a few of his staff though. However, the one thing that I was VERY impressed with is that a nurse from his office visits every day you are in the hospital. Even when I had to go back they usually stopped by to see how things were going. I really liked that.
I don't really think there was anything that I didn't like about him.
Future patients should know that Dr. Steward will take the time to answer all your questions and he will not put you down or make you feel bad for what you weigh or that you haven't been able to lose the weight on your own. I think he's a great Dr.!
I would like to see a little bit better information given out to patients before surgery but they do follow you very well after surgery and are concerned with your vitamins/minerals intake etc.
Dr. Steward's office has a great support group. I have only been to it a couple of times but I always got a lot out of it when I did go.
Dr. Steward is very upfront about the risks of surgery and covers that information very well.
Dr. Steward is an excellent Dr. in my opinion. I had great care from him and his nurses. I think he has both excellent surgical competence and bedside manner. He's a great Dr.!"
