Dr. Stein exemplifies many of the most important things I look for in a doctor. He reviewed records ahead of time but then wanted to hear details from me. He was clear about the limits of his knowledge of my condition and helped me find a provider better suited to my case. He has insight into frustrating aspects of medical care. And most important he didn’t seem to be rushing on to the next thing on his plate. I felt important which it seems like you should always feel but sadly this is missing so often in healthcare.
