Steven Tooze, M.D.

Dr Tooze makes you feel comfortable and he is one of the best doctors I have never had.

He got right to my problem and gave me a clear diagnosis

Dr. Tooze is pleasant, and makes his patient feel comfortable and confident in his evaluations and recommendations. He has proven to be a dedicated physician to my family.

Dr. Tooze was great - office staff not so good except check-in personnel. Others have no personality, very robotic. Did not appear to care about the patient - just want to process you through as quickly as possible.

Wonderful as always!! Dr Tooze and Lori are the best!

Dr. Tooze is steadfast. Excellent bedside manner, terrific surgeon, and has a genuine care for his patients.! I dread the day he retires, he'll be sorely missed!

Dr. Tooze and his team are professional, compassionate, kind, caring... We have turned to Dr. Tooze many times over the years and he has always been there for us :)

Dr Tooze is very knowledgeable and personably.

??

Very patient, friendly and thorough.

Dr. Tooze has been my Orthopedic Dr. for many years. He has always taken excellent care of me and continues to do so. Two weeks ago I had a total knee replacement . I have been in Physical Therapy since the day after surgery. In talking to my Physical Therapist and other knee patients, I have learned that I am way ahead of patients sent there by other surgeons. This speaks volumes for Dr. Tooze, his knowledge and excellent surgical procedures! I recommend him every chance I get. Thank you Dr. Tooze! You are TRULY, THE BEST!

As always, Dr Tooze pays attention to my concerns, explains things understandable and discusses options! The whole organization is outstanding!

I only gave 4 stars because of the checkin procedures. Why do I have to fill out my whole life history when I have been there numerous times and had surgery. Wouldn’t it be more efficient to print out my history and make changes. Other doctors do. On the plus side, Dr Tooze is excellent and I would highly recommend him and the practice .

The whole staff was great. Very pleasant experience.

Excellent physician. One of the hardest working people I know. Excellent results on both knees he replaced at different times.

Works with the patient to achieve optimal results. Wonderful bedside manner!

Very comfortable visit. Showed me my x-rays with explanations. Dictated findings to his assistant—never lost eye contact in order to type notes himself—I think that is most important to me.

I have always enjoyed coming to Dr Tooze's Office. Dr. Tooze is great. Girls are every friendly except I don't think the checkout girls enjoy being there. Not a happy bunch but of course that is the feeling I get.

Dr. Tooze is the best. I will choose him everytime

Dr. Tooze can tell what is going on inside a knee just using palpation. He is unfailingly cheerful & optimistic. He shares information with the pt. (an excellent thing in doctors.

Dr. Tooze's reputation as the best in Delaware is an understatement. His willingness to share and discuss the facts and gentle administration of medication make him second to none.

Very pleasant, cordial and competent.
