Dr. Steiner is the most complete provider I have had in years. He didn't use a nurse, but rather did my vitals himself, which I prefer. He had read my previous complicated history, so upon meeting me, already knew much about me. This made it easier to detail my past and current needs. He was VERY thorough in his exam, both verbal and physical.
