This is the guy all over the news, getting mad heat due to his poor negligence and practices. A bunch of cases are popping up all over the place. There is the case about the girl who is in a coma from having her wisdoms removed, the case about a man who said the doctor abandoned him in the middle of his eyelid surgery, and another case of someone dying days after the doctor pulls his tooth. I'm surprised the state hasn't revoked his license for such malpractice. The yelper who just rated 5 stars (J. Willard W)... What a coincidence that you so happen to pop in here and rate 5 stars in spite of all the negative media attention. An even bigger coincidence is that you just happened to start yelping this month... Talk about fishy!!! Anywho, regarding this doctor and his practice... Don't go here! If the media is wrong, let them prove his innocence, but honestly, how are you going to make yourself look like a decent practice after this. Don't do it! Too bad yelp can't give ZERO stars! read more

I wish there was a negative zero button for this monster. Tons of complaints, malpractice suits and negligence. A young mother lays in a coma after a root canal done by stover. Another man died after a extraction done by stover. Stover didn't have the proper licensure to administer the lethal dose of meds. He's not even a licensed anesthesiologist. He's now packed up and left Hawaii. Unable to ever practice medicine in Hawaii ever again. Prayers go out to the family of the young beautiful woman still in a coma. This should've have never happened. Stover may god have mercy on your soul for your greed. Life is priceless. read more

Horrible customer service. They are frequently running behind schedule, that is if they even know you're scheduled to come in. I was treated by the receptionist, including getting incorrect instructions for necessary supplements. One time I was told that they didn't have my medicine and that I would need to come back. When I called days later I was told they forgot to get it and that I would have to drive back into town the following day to get it. Like I said, horrible customer service. read more

Doctor and staff is friendly. Oral surgeon skills may be a little questionable, but probably okay. Bedside manners are mediocre at best, doesn't take time to prepare your or answer questions. Maybe it's his exaggerated optimism, but his calling everything "fabulous" comes across as a little fake and makes me worried. Doctor and staff is terrible at prepping you for oral surgery, so do all of your research beforehand and try to get answers beforehand if you can. Don't really recommend the office, but you don't have any other choice in Hilo. read more

Dr.Stover has performed a lot of specialty procedures for me the past several years. What a pleasure it is to have someone who so so professionally competent as well as such a caring attitude toward his patients. He has done treatments for facial wasting and several surgeries for skin cancer. I live here half time but always wait to have this kind of work done until I return here from the East Coast. My Dermatologist and Primary Care Phisicians are very impressed with the work that he has performed. What a wonderful caring physician with great patient skills. He follows up with personal phone calls and provides you with a personal cell phone number to call in case of any questions or problems. He is also a great supporter of the community especially in the arts area both monetarily and the giving of his time. I completely trust Dr. Stover and believe any patient will be proud and happy for any specialty work that he performs. I know this feeling is shared by many of my friends. read more
