Dr Stevens was very cordial and direct, addressing my immediate concerns. He talks to you at your level of understanding. I had some previous experience with some treatment so he was able to dispense with some of the elementary basics of treatment. I found Dr Stevens understanding and optimistic about the treatment I will be receiving. In my case I also have some arthritic knee issues that will require knee replacement. He was very willing to work in conjunction with my orthopedist.

Dr. Ken Stevens is clearly knowledgeable, double board certified, and appears to be keenly interested in the physical facts related to his patients' health. He appears to be quite busy, which could be interpreted to be disinterest in his patients, but he seems to nice for that to be true. As a result of visits, a patient should feel very confident in his diagnoses and recommended treatments. However, the personal, emotional component that is an important element of a patient's health care is largely ignored in the typical appointment, and communication in lay terms is difficult to elicit from Dr. Stevens. This is particularly important as it relates to Life Style choices which are significant for patients to alter to improve health. More time spent on ensuring patient understanding, with empathy, and investigation into social/psychological reasons for patient behavior would result in superior results for both doctor and patient.

Have been coming to Dr. Stevens office for years. Out of multiple doctors he was the first to diagnose the correct symptoms and come up with a comprehensive plan to get me well again. During the entire time, his staff, from the receptionist to the nurses to the managers and book keepers have all been friendly and courteous during the entire time. I have gotten to know them all very well and we have a light conversation experience every time. I have seen quite a few come and go, but they all have been so wonderful to be around and are genuinely concerned about my well being. Some of them have harder names to remember and pronounce than others, especially Marisol, took me forever to get her name right. Would highly recommend Dr. Stevens and his courteous staff to anyone who needs his type of care.

I have had several procedures to my veins by Dr. Stevens. I am a seventy-year-old runner. I probably would not be running if not for his help.
