This doctor did not seem interested in my back pain or even stalling the problem. He even said “we never know the reason” in regards what’s causing the pain. The entire visit gave me the impression that I could try the same 4 treatment options that he offers all of his patients, but nothing will ever solve this back pain and he really couldn’t care much about it anyway.I am a new mother who can’t even pick up her own baby without severe pain who is desperate for help. I do not find the help I needed with Dr Steinke.

Will not. Surgery is the last step, but by the time you are 60-65 and cannot recover properly from surgery, then you can have surgery. “We see your issue, but insurance will not pay because it’s not bad enough.” THE PROCESS IS BROKEN!!

Nice doctor as well as his nurse Sharon. However, very confused with how I’m instructed to treat my severe hip pain. PT prior to finding the root of the pain utilizing X-Rays is confusing. I fear prolonging the severe symptoms potentially making it worse.

The doctor lied on the notes. It said he did test that he never did. He never looked at my back. He only took X-rays. He told me that my spinal fusion was a non fusion but put in the notes that it was satisfied fusion. He lied on all the notes from what he told me in the office.

I just feel like he was quick and dismissive, although “nice” I felt like he minimized my problem. He told me maybe I was “noticing my pain more” while I slept.

Completely unprofessional, made joke references before even introducing himself to me. Laughed and made jokes about me and my concerns to his staff right on the other side of the patient room door. Did not take my concerns seriously, bad bedside manner, and couldn’t wait to move on to the next patient ($$$). After all he’s a back surgeon, and he doesn’t know why some people are recommended to him but he will see whoever they send to him, even if he can’t help, (his words). A formal complaint was already made with the practice manager. Several office staff are very aware of this incident because they were witnessing it.

He was very rude . He didn't look at my health history. I couldn't do several of his tests and he marked I could on his visit notes.

He's caring, knowledgeable and takes time to explain things in a simple way that's easy to understand. He's personable and makes me feel at ease regardless of how much pain I'm in.
