Very professional. She was thorough and helpful.
Aug-2024
I felt like I did a lot of waiting even though I had an early appointment. The doctor could’ve had warmer facial expressions and relatability. I would say overall, it was a neutral experience. And it seemed like she was in a rush to get out the door.

Best shoulder surgeon I’ve ever had!!!

I had a great experience with front desk, and my Initial visit with a PA. However my follow up with Dr Stabile left me feeling let down. I felt she was annoyed I had questions, and her mannerism was condescending.
Apr-2024
I was worked into the schedule in a timely way. Dr Stabile was personable and knowledgable about my issue. However i did feel i had unanswered questions and she seemed rushed at the appointment.
Apr-2024
I like the doctor's no-nonsense, clear and concise approach to explaining what the patient needs.
Mar-2024
Appointment felt rushed. Options presented, no real discussion. Felt like I was talked to instead of with. She left the room without a goodby. Did not show X-rays, just said they did not look too bad.
Mar-2024
Very friendly when you’re at the appointment, but terrible follow through. Her office NEVER initiates contact unless you owe them money! Don’t wait for them to call after you’ve had a test or imaging. They never will.

I appreciated not having to wait long!
Dec-2023
Visit with doctor was less than 5 mins.. I appreciate someone who takes the time to listen and gets a whole picture of my needs and how everything could be contacted to the current issue.

Dr. Stabile has worked with me for the last 2 years, from successfully operating on my broken shoulder through managing my proper healing. She is currently helping identify the cause of severe pain in my shoulder and arm, and assuring a successful recuperation. She is the proper mix of a professional with knowledge, skill, empathy, and friendliness in dealing with her patients. I am more than happy to have her on my team.
Sep-2023
I think she is a great doctor
Sep-2023
I have been told Dr. Stabile is an excellent orthopedic doctor she was recommended to me by a very satisfied friend. So I believe she is good at what she does. However on my first visit with her she spent 5 minutes at most. Didn’t even ask about my regular physical activity and how it is affected by my pain, and didn’t ask if I had any questions. She made a quick diagnosis (which I’m fine with), ordered a steroid injection, and gave me a choice about exercise at home or PT. I chose PT. She left the room quickly and I thought she would be back in when I would be able to ask questions about my activities, but that was the end of my visit with her. When I checked out, I was scheduled for the injection and given a list of home exercises. I had to ask to have the PT ordered. I know they are very busy, but I think she needs to slow down and listen, and give her patients a chance to ask questions.
Sep-2023
Dr. Stabile is a great surgeon. She explained everything in advance. Her expectations were clear. My recovery has been smooth and she continues to answer questions as they come up!
Aug-2023
Kathryn was soft spoken but very confident and direct with her direction and support. I found her approach to work well for me. Her surgical capability is evidenced in my recovery and shoulder improvement. My incisions are barely noticeable.
Thank you Doctor!
Aug-2023
Was more concerned about my weight than my broken leg. Yes, I’m a little bit heavier but I am active and lead a full healthy life. She made rude comments and insinuations about me based on my weight.
Aug-2023
My favorite shoulder Engineer. As far as I’m concerned she did a wonderful job
Aug-2023
Excellent. Quick and to the point.
Aug-2023
Dr. Stabile is thorough, friendly, and she takes her time. She explains the why's and what to consider for now and possibly in the future.
Aug-2023
Dr. Stabile had poor bedside manner. She rushed through my visit and we had to stop her as she was halfway out the door to ask her a question. She seemed very rushed and I did not feel as though I received the best care that I could have had I seen another provider.
Jul-2023
She’s a lovely Dr.
Jul-2023
Dr. Stabile is a great surgeon. She has fixed both my shoulders over a 5 year period. I couldn't have asked for a better results, she's the best.
Jun-2023
Very poor, was in the room less than 5 minutes. only interested in surgery. No discussion of alternative therapies. Never talked to me like a human being. I don't care how great she is with shoulders, she is not qualified to interact with people.
Jun-2023
Dr. Stabile explained my X-ray and further care in detail. She made me feel comfortable about the progress of my injury and future care.
Jun-2023
Fast, efficient and friendly and diagnosed the issue quickly. Dr. Michael V Palasz
May-2023
Dr. Stabile went what we consider above and beyond to help get our son evaluated for an ankle injury and for his rehab back into his sports season.
May-2023
Dr Stabile quickly assessed my problem and my motivated nature and put me quickly back on track with my ultra-distance training. Thank you!
Mar-2023
Excellent visit
Mar-2023
She was pleasant and reassuring
Feb-2023
Dr. Stabile is very strong skills and an attentive doctor to patient’s health.
Feb-2023
I greatly Dr Stabile's comprehensive review and physical examination of my shoulder, the drawing showing me the proposed repair, as well as not being rushed but feeling I had adequate time for the doctor to address all of the questions I had for her during my visit... and if she leaves medicine she can have a future as an artist in the medium of "pen and ink"!
Jan-2023
Dr. Stabile was dismissive. When I tried to ask about the plan to immobilize my daughter's finger, she did not give me time to ask, and failed to provide thorough information. When my school-aged daughter asked how she'll be able to write with it on, the doc said "You'll figure it out" and left the room. She clearly did not want to spend any time in the room with us. It was the worst experience of a seemingly uncaring provider that I've ever had.
Jan-2023
Knowledgeable, courteous, efficient.
Jan-2023
Very kind and attentive. Ready to help in any way!

Nov-2022
Not only a great doctor but a wonderful person
Nov-2022
Very knowledgeable but we did not see the doctor until an hour past our appt time.
Oct-2022
Good listener, answered questions and was gentle but not condescending to elderly.
Oct-2022
Physician talked over me, I felt as if I couldn’t finish a sentence. Seemed as if she was rushing me through appt. I’ve been in healthcare my entire professional life-majority of it in the OR; I certainly understand how days can be. But, that was how it was for that particular appointment.
Oct-2022
Dr. Stabile was friendly and explained everything clearly. She mapped out a clear plan for me to get back to normal. I would recommend her and the whole team at OAL.
Oct-2022
Very nice and very kind tells me all the facts and what happened took time to show me pictures that’s very awesome thank you so much!!!!!
Oct-2022
Very pleasant and explained things well.
Oct-2022
My child was saddened by her pretentious, downright rude demeanor. Her attitude was off putting and curt. If this is how she treats all children she is teaching them they don’t matter.
Sep-2022
Was not thorough enough after MRI .
Too many weeks between visits. I was injured on 7/3/22. On 9/8/22 she is now sending me to another doctor.
Sep-2022
Was very late to her appointment and said nothing about it. Gave very little time to go over any diagnosis. And then simply did not help further and passed the batton to another specialist. Tried several messages in order to come to a solution temporarily for pain management. And was told Tylenol and turmeric. Went to primary care Doctor Who immediately sent us to a pain management specialist. Multiple request made to send referral paperwork over and has yet to be done. Highly unprofessional. Very little concern for her patient. Bedside manner nonexistent.
Sep-2022
Seemed very busy -not much time to answer questions
