He is a genius that gave me back my life. I am forever grateful to God for allowing me to find Dr. Steward. he is now in Bartlesville OK doing general surgery. I am trying to convince him to do Bariatric surgery again. We have a horrible epidemic of obesity here and his talents are greatly needed. HE IS A hEALER!!!!

I met Dr. Stewart on Friday 8/22. I think he is marvelous. I am going to have a revision from a Failed VBG to a BPD/DS. He was very patient kind and personable. I really like him already. His nurse Rachelle is a gem!!! the staff at the Tallgrass surgery center treated me with care and respect. ( I had to have a EGD) they checked on me at the hotel and after i got home. I am excited about my surgery. His bedside manner is AAAA+++++. I am trusting his surgical skills will be the same.
I am over three years post op and I still think the world of my surgeon. He continues to be supportive and I have had several complications that are not typical. So my impression has not changed. His staff is great as well. I can't think of naything I don't like about him--other than he is about 90 minutes away.
They have a great aftercare program and they work hard to make sure the patients are very well informed and prepared.
On a scale of one to ten...he is over a ten. I have never had such a great doctor. He has great bedside manner and competence so I would say both are great.

Just checking back in. I lived on this site but its been over 6 years. I am dealing with the lovely issue of regain. Dr. Steward moved to Oklahoma last year, so now I am going to Dr. Berntsen. She is very nice too.
I really like Dr. Steward, he has been so possitive, caring, and optimistic. He has done everything possible to help me. He worries because I lost too much weight too fast, so I have not had a fill yet. But since the appetite is increasing and the weight is slowing down, I'm sure it will be soon. His nurse has been just great!For awhile my family wondered if he knew what he was doing when the bleeding took place. But he was there for me, called in a blood specialist and they did everything possible to help me.
The thing about Brent is he seems to actually care about his patients, and he is very easy to talk with. He left me and my family feeling secure about my decision. I had some complications with my surgery, but I do NOT believe it was because of him. My body overreacted to the blood thinners, and I had to have five units of blood. As far as aftercare, so far I have not seen a lot of interaction from him or his staff, but then again at this time I do not require it. Both his surgical competence and bedside manner are wonderful and I would suggest checking him out as a possible surgeon.
Dr. Steward is really kind, and I feel very comfortable talking with him. I have been in the health field for 21 years now and I feel that the Tallgrass physicians and staff are a wonderful group of people. rnrnI would say that the most stressfull issues I had was making and going to required appointments before insurance submission, insurance denial after first submission, and scheduling my surgery due to it taking several weeks to schedule. rnrnSt. Francis Health Center in Topeka, Ks. has a FANTASTIC bariactric manager, Stacy. She is very kind and knowledgeable. She and the Turning Point surgical unit staff are a great group of people. Stacy has called me at home after my surgery and helped me with a couple of questions that I had. rnrnMy overall satisfaction of my experience, so far, is very positive. It is only the first week after having my surgery, but I feel good and I have my first checkup tomorrow.
Dr. Steward is the best! I am so grateful. He is just so down to earth with his great sense of humor and overall sweet disposition. I remember meeting him for my initial visit and thinking...he's so young! Young he may be, but he does know his business. I immediately felt comfortable, and have ever since. His nurse Rachelle is just as great. Any questions or concerns that have ever come up have been answered by her over the phone. She is always patient. Again, I am so grateful for my experience thus far. I couldn't ask for a better Doctor!
My first impression of Dr. Steward was that he was very professional. He had an excellent bedside manner and I liked him very much. Also, the surgical team was excellent to me both before and after my surgery.
I am just so happy with my experience with Dr. Steward and Dr. Dunshee. I've read so many people here at OH where folks had a negative experience along the way. I can't believe that some of these doctors and their staff don't treat this like the business that it is. The entire group at Tallgrass gets a 5 star rating on my behalf. Dr. Steward is so very kind and shows such a genuine interest in his patients. I can't think of anything else to expand upon because the whole thing was just great from start to finish.
Dr. Steward was kind, compassionate, and truly concerned about me and the outcome and success of my surgery. He emphasized MY role in succeeding in my weight loss journey and helped me to have realistic expectations. I have been very successful in my weight loss and feel so much more healthy and energetic...I am truly blessed to have such a dedicated, professional surgeon who is also a compassionate human being who truly cares about his patients.
