I've been living with pain for almost 3 years. My job as a dentist--especially the surgical work I…read moredo--has taken a real toll on my back after more than 20 years. I had seen 5 different specialists, searching for answers and options. When I met with Dr. Stem, I knew my search was over. He took the time to listen, explain my options, and walk me through what he thought would be the best course of action. I even showed him other treatment plans I had been offered, and instead of dismissing them, he respectfully explained why he would take a different approach. That professionalism and thoughtful care really stood out to me. Fast forward, 6 weeks post-op--I am pain-free. I haven't been able to say that in nearly 3 years. I'm still seeing patients, but now I can work without pain. Even better, I've been able to return to my physical activities with no worries and no limitations. I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Stem and his team. If you're looking for someone who truly cares about his patients and delivers results, look no further. Thanks again, Doc-- I'm ecstatic with the results and grateful to have my life back! --Brian

I cancelled all future appointments but kept getting a referral from, I guess, the oblation doctor. Obviously, this doctor does little talking.

I recently sought care from Dr. Brown and her team at SpinePain & Orthopedic Injury Center for a…read moreserious and complex condition. Dr. Brown is highly competent in her field. Another doctor in the BayCare system told me, "Oh, Dr. Brown? She's excellent." Based on her diagnosis and treatment, I believe it. She's action-oriented, determined, and clearly committed to making a positive impact. I also received exceptional care from one of her nurses, Jessica, who called me after hours to check on my condition. Unfortunately, my experience gets mixed from there. You'll see negative reviews of this practice, and here's my read on why. Dr. Brown is brilliantly competent, but she can come across as cold and unempathetic. I say this as a leadership psychologist (Dr. Brown -- you should reach out to me; I can help). I noticed the same thing with another assistant of hers: highly competent, but no warmth in the communication. That's not uncommon in medicine. It's unfortunate, because this team is brilliant with the Xs and Os. It's the Jills and Joes part that could use some elevation. Then came the moment I lost some trust. I had a flare-up and was in a lot of pain. I called and asked for a same-day appointment. The person at the front desk said, "I think we can get you in here or at our other facility. I'll call you back with a time." She never called. I'm guessing it was a simple oversight by someone overwhelmed with other tasks, and I could have called back myself -- that's on me. But the follow-through was Dr. Brown's responsibility. She's the leader. It was disappointing, and I lost some trust. I'm still rooting for Dr. Brown and her office, and I will try them again. Everyone makes mistakes. But this time, it will be with hesitation.
