William Stevens, M.D.

Dr. Steven’s

He was very professional and explained everything to me.

I felt that he was not personable or sympathetic with my problem. He gave me a hopeless outlook without even trying to help me. If I wasn’t there for surgery, he was done with me!!!!

Very professional. Direct and did not recommend surgery.

Absolutely very professional and kind. Very thorough.

Very professional

Always a complete discussion of my issues. Staff efficient also

Warm friendly professional.

Dr. Stevens was great. The only reason this is not a 5 star rating is because I didn't see him until an hour after my appointment time. They likely need more MD's on staff so Dr. Stevens is not running around like crazy to handle things.

He’s so well

Actually listens to you!

Excellent doctor

Very honest and thorough !

Honest and knowledgeable.

He listened to me and answered all my question that I needed answered. He did not make me feel rushed and he showed compassion.

It would have been more helpful if the doctor had gone into some level of details and offer some explanation to my problem. When I asked questions, I felt like I was stalling or keeping the doctor from moving on. The truth is I didn't get a overall picture why my back problem occured, why it was not a big concern and how it fits in the overall spectrum of back problems. Also, the doctor seemed unaware of how and when my problem started which I had provided in the long Questionary form before I was even seen by his assistant several weeks ago. The doctor is a nice person, but seemed uninterested in offering medical advice.

Excellent.

Dr. Steven's always addresses my concerns.

Can Do Attitude

Muy mal servicio. Estuve esperando en el room por mas de una hora pregunte a la secretaria de atencion al cliente y me mandaron una physician assistant y me trato muy mal no me dio la atencion requerida. Estoy muy decepcionada del servicio que me otorgaron con el Dr.William Stevens en Ortho Arizona.

He is the best surgeon for any neck/back issue.

Dr Steven’s is inadequate. Surgeon in NJ saw a compression fracture, concurred by another physician. He should check Amy’s X-ray

Made me feel comfortable and heard

Awesome doctor and he took very good care of me from surgery to final follow up appointment. Thank you so much for your great care Dr. Stevens.

A fantastic doctor who tells you like it is. His honesty is so refreshing and his performance of 2 surgeries on my back made me feel like a new man!! I'm now at 73 able to physically exercise and not be in pain. Thank you Dr.Stevens! 😊

I felt like he was late for some other appointment. If I tried to ask a question, he'd cut me off and say "it's due to the arthritis. I wanted a cortizone shot - but he said I had to take a weeks medicine, go to therapy, get an MRI, then go to Pain Management, who would give me a cortizone shot.

Very straight forward and helpful, I hope!!

He did not have a very good bedside manner. Was super quick when he came in the room to talk to me and it felt like he just wanted me to hurry and leave. Shirt with my asking questions. I would definitely want to see someone else.

Saw the PA not the Dr

Great work doctor! Thank you.

The only problem was I felt very rushed.

I've been with him since 1999. He is THE MOST HONEST physician I've EVER had and I'm grateful for his care and guidance and most of all Honesty And Integrity

Very professional. He made us comfortable with his diagnosis and plan.n

Dr. Stevens is an amazing surgeon & listens to his patients. He performed major back surgery on my wife & myself with great success. We certainly recommend him.

Awesome job, thanks for everything.

I thought he Great! He went through everything! Very good with communicating. The only I would have liked to see the x-rays. He could have explained the problem with my back! Other than that I really liked him!

very personable.

Great man

Did not meet with Dr. Stevens, only with his Medical Assistants,

Dr Stevens was thorough and made me feel relaxed and at ease.

Quick & on point.

Enjoyed meeting with Dr. Steven’s!

Efficient and professional. Lots of info!

Always a pleasant visit.

Top notch!!

he listened! he asked appropriate questions. He didn't overprescribe.

Very personable and attentive

Outstanding!!!!! Dr Stevens , made me feel so comfortable explaining the process.

Did not have bedside manner. Had appointment at1:30. Did not see him until 3:00. Didn’t introduce himself. Sounded like he had a bad day. Was very short with me. Not sure if I want him to operate on me. By listening to his recordings, You need to feel comfortable with your doctor and trust in them. Well I felt very uncomfortable. Had a rough voice and did not like it all.

I wish he had reviewed the MRI results with me and and pointed out visually the problems

I think Dr. Stevens is a great doctor. I have had not 1 but 2 neck surgeries that Dr. Stevens did. If I didn’t trust or think he wasn’t a great doctor I sure would never had had the 2nd surgery with him.

Very pleasant to talk with.

Very good doctor to review your aches and pains with and he sure does know how to cure your ills or in my case pain twice!

This is my second surgery with Dr. Stevens because I was happy with him the first time. Again he did not disappoint me.

Very much a perfectionist. Did an excellent surgery!

Despite more than one appt, I know zero about my spinal condition other than "it's very bad." No explanation whatsoever. I had to ask for basic care such as PT. Just wow.

Very knowledgeable and made me feel that he was the right doctor to help me with my back problem.

Very professional and friendly...

I cannot accurately rate him because in the 2 appointments I had I only saw him once for maybe 5-10 minutes. I saw his physicians assistant, Amy

Exc

Dr. Stevens is kind and very professional. He listens and gives the time to answer questions. I have full confidence in him.

Very friendly and professional

Spent the money for a specialist for him to speak 5 word to me! Answered 0 of my questions and gave me no options for relief even after asking for suggestions.

Dr. Stevens is THE BEST! in my book.

Excellent doctor. Makes you feel comfortable 😌,

Dr Stevens is very real… He will tell you exactly how it is. He is a very good surgeon that I highly recommend.

Not only is he a great surgeon but, he has taken the time to explain and answer all my questions. I highly recommend Dr Stevens

Dr. Stevens was nice to talk with, easy going. He referred me to a pain management doctor.

Bad news delivered ok.

Dr.Stevens is a fine surgeon. I am very pleased with the surgery. The post op care team at Oasis Hospital is second to none. All of the team deserves 5 stars.

Very competent and personalized care.!! Very helpful!

bedside manner was lacking

Amazing experience from the moment I walked into the office... Very professional... Incredibly organizing... Plus the Dr. Was thorough, clear in explaining everything... Thank you!!!

Although this was my first visit with Dr Stevens, I was impressed with his knowledge and professionalism.

Dr. really impressed us in a positive way. He was very helpful in giving advice.

Staff was great too

Very honest and trusting. Surgery wasn’t an option but gave me very good advice for help in relieving severe back pain for arthritis. Would highly recommend. Staff is excellent also.

He eliminated all my lumbar pain after performing surgery on me in January. Forever grateful.

Totally love his work ethic! He advised me to go to therapy and wait 2 months and it turned out to be an excellent plan! My neck works perfectly, no pain in arms or on down to my hands! Perfect

He helped me out and set me up with therapy and everything is good I feel better and continue my home exercises and and I'm feeling good thank u very much

All around pleasant experience from start to post op.

Real nice and very knowledgeable doctor. Made me feel apart of the decision making process by showing me the MRI! Took time to go through all alternatives. PA and staff very nice!

Prompt, courteous service.

Dr. Stevens is, for lack of a better word, a miracle worker. He and his team seriously got my life back.

Really like Dr Stevens! I'm starting my road to a pain free recovery....

Great sense of humor. Took time to explain my issues.

Never introduced himself and yawned repeatedly.. Made me feel like I was of no interest to him.

Dr Steven's and entire staff are great, will defiantly recommend!!

Very good experience here.

The greatest Doctor and his staff is the best.

Great full fir his service

Dr. Stevens listens and has offered sound treatment for my lower back issues. I have been able to address my pain as a result with a satisfactory outcome.

Dr.Stevens is an amazing surgeon. Office staff is great also. Thank you for getting me out of pain!!!

Got to the problem quickly.

I think he is knowledgeable.

Very caring and professional. Straight shooter who tells it like it is. A very good physician

I saw Amy Knighton and she was very thourough, knowledgeable and helpful.

He used to be friendly, he seemed to be very aloof and in a hurry today. Got a quick we need to schedule for an MRI and out the door.

Excellent doctor. Good review of my medical situation.

Would never recommend. Might be a great surgeon, however, I would never go that far with him.

He gave me bad news about my back.When I left I was disappointed I didn't ask more questions because he really didn't explain enough.He let me know he would not operate on my back. I still do not understand which disc are causing all this. Please send a report to Dr Kramer and he will explain it to me.

never got to see the doctor. only his PA.

No nonsense. I trusted his advice

Dr Stevens has a great reputation as an orthopedic surgeon specializing in complex procedures. I also found him very kind and personable.

Straight forward with honest assessments..

I was so impressed by their thoroughness n kindness. Thank you all.

This was my first appointment with Ortho Arizona. After waiting 3 weeks for the appt. and over 30 min. to get in once I arrived, I found the first 2 nurses who came in to be helpful but they both advised that I save all information and questions for the Dr. since he would go over my MRI and decide on treatment etc. When he finally came in , it took him less than 10 min to tell me he was a spine specialist and it sounded like I needed a shoulder specialist so there was nothing he could do. He said he would give me a referral to yet another Orthopedic surgeon he knew, however he walked out and did not do so. This was a complete waste of my time and money after driving across town for the appointment.

Very knowledgeable with a great personality. Took all the time that we needed and he answered every one of my questions would highly recommend this doctor to anyone that needs a surgeon

Didn't see dr. Williams today but everything went well

Didn't see him not more the like 3mins

Dr Stevens is a FANTASTIC doctor! I highly recommend him. He LISTENS and has a good sense of humor.

As always, professional and straight to the point.

Great surgeon has done wonders for me

Dr. Steven’s was great as well as the PA. The reason for the 4 stars is the wait time to see providers.

Dr. Steven's was very professional, he addressed my concerns and was respectful to my individual needs. His staff was very professional as well Thank you!

Rumors are true. Feel very safe with my life in his hands.

Dr Stevens and his team are real fantastic! I appreciate the care they take from check in to check out.

Dr Stevens is hands down the most considerate and capable physician I’ve ever had the pleasure to work with. His bedside manner and ability to explain my daughters condition and surgical options was a blessing and gift. I hope we will be able to work with him when she’s ready. Top doc does not begin to describe this man.

Awesome experience thank you

Dr. Stevens os a very good doctor. He’s a very knowledgeable physician and surgeon.

Thorough and he has a sense of humor!!!

Very thorough in his explanation & concerned for my wellness ??

Doctor Stevens was very informative and upfront with me what needs to happen

Dr Stevens is great. He took the time to listen to my problems, answer all my questions, and consulted me on treatment. He fuses my L5 S1. It has been 3 months and the pain I had is gone!

A tough day for the Dr. I was last but he took the time to go over the solution for me.

Didn't seem like anyone was listening to my issues. Saw the Dr. for about 2 minutes and had waiting to see him for an hour and a half. He did not even touch my back or look at my back. He gave me prescription for physical therapy. I had waited for the appt for a few weeks and left more lost than when I had arrived. Poor bedside manner.

Good advice. Not overly friendly but cares how you feel.

Dr Stevens is the best and his office staff is the kindness group you could ask for.

Excellent doc, staff is always friendly and helpful. Dr. Stevens is my husband’s spine doctor and has done 2 surgeries and he is doing fantastic. I trust Dr. Stevens and his knowledge

Dr. Stevens is a caring and very skilled surgeon who looks at the entire patient, not just the spine. He looks at all treatment alternatives, not only surgery. He is the best in my book

Highly respect Dr. Steven, wish he could of helped me.

A tremendous Surgeon as well as a caring individual. He saved my life

Condescending and rude. I love my other surgeons at OrthoArizona...such a shame

Great Doc

He just wanted to get rid of me. He was not willing to take the time to ascertain the entire problem. He was dismissive and abrupt.

Dr.Stevens is the best at what he does. Very caring and calm.

Dr. Stevens is my "go to" Dr. for a straight forward and informed opinion.

I have utter confidence in Dr. Stevens. He is straightforward, has a manner that inspires confidence. Liked his office and staff, too.

Very caring, knowledgeable and kind Doctor. Very happy with my spine surgery.

Dr. Stevens is top rate. I was very happy with the level of detail the doctor provided at all times when it came to my diagnosis and plan of care. His has a great sarcastic sense of humor and is very personable.

Fixed my back!!!!

Nice person. Cares. I am confident in his recommendation for surgery. It would be nice if conservative therapy was integrated prior to surgery

I truly was impressed, with Dr. Stevens and his staff

Very pleasant and bluntly honest which I appreciate

Dr. Stevens corrected my spinal problem with only one surgery and ALL of my severe pain is gone. I really like him.

Dr Stevens and his team are very intent on you.

He doesn’t offer any info on my condition, and answers to my questions are brief. I don’t think he likes me.

Very down to earth explains your problem in easy to understand language

Very friendly and knowledgeable. Saw me right on time. Support staff was great!

Dr. Stevens, listen & put a plan in action! The staff was awesome!

Very personable, up front and knowledgeable! Great doctor

I wish all of my Doctors were as open and straight forward as Doctor Stevens is. Straight and to the point, by far the best Doctor I have ever seen. Just a good guy and truthful! Everything he has told me to do has worked, The best I have seen in my 64 years!

Came to him with hip pain from a skateboarding accident a year ago. He focused on my neck instead. Sent me to PR for my neck… Came back again for hips and said to me “this should be happening to you at 55, not 35… are you a tobacco user?” And proceeded to blame my inability to walk over a mile on me smoking cigarettes…. Never addressed my pain whatsoever. Wonderful receptionists though!!!

Could not be more pleased. Dr. Stevens is the best.

As usual Dr. Stevens was very familiar with my case. He answered all my questions and concerns. I did not feel rushed or hurried.

I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Stevens and his entire staff from beginning to end of my treatment. His staff team always puts the patient at the forefront. Dr. Stevens is an excellent surgeon and I would highly recommend him to family and friends.

Great Surgeon that's surrounded by great medical professionals and staff. If you're looking for the best look no more!

Exceptional service!

He’s a great doctor.

Doc was great, has been for the last 3 years. Today he released me.

Dr. Stevens and his team have been wonderful. He was very patient with me and my questions. He explained in detail my diagnosis and treatment plan. Surgery was successful and I am slowly getting back to my normal life. I am so thankful he was recommended to me. From beginning to end everything was handled with care. He personally calls to check on you and makes time for his patients.

Great visit! Dr. Stevens is really awesome. He made sure I understood my issue and how we would work together to resolve it. BTW, Dr. Stevens is also an excellent photographer. Very enjoyable appointment.

Took time to make sure treatment for my spine problem was appropriate and accurate and conveyed all his findings and treatment concisely to me. Good Dr.- patient interaction!

I felt slightly rushed and did not get a chance to have all of my concerns addressed. For me, I would like to know what the findings are in real time pertaining to in-office evaluations.

He was ok for what l seen of him.

A great service and so much right about my neck problem!

will not recommend.

Love Dr Stevens

Very personable and professional. Has a great bedside manner.

Dr Steven's has been an extremely informative doctor of my health. He has answered all my questions, and has been totally up front with me. I highly recommend him.

He made me feel as I was there wasting is time, when it took more time from my schedule then he did. I have many not nice things about this doctor's bedside manor, but would it make a difference.

professional & provided information not previously divulged by other doctors

Dr. Stevens is a great doctor to have on your staff. He is very knowledgeable in his field and a pleasent man as he speaks to me.

A great man, a great doctor. Glad I have him on my sidelines.

great doctor with terrific skills and sense of humor!

Wanted Dr. again and it worked. Very happy

Dr Stevens is fantastic! He has great bedside manners and will tell you how it is, which I love!

The best!

Very professional, very straightforward and came up with an alternate & viable suggestion. Also congratulations on his PA Amy.

Honest and straight up specialist. Great attitude and excellent recommendation.

Spoke to me in an extremely dismissive manner. Trust his surgical talent and medical expertise. Strongly dislike his communication style.

I Trusted Dr. Stevens with my life in 2005. He saved my life. I trusted him again with my neck surgery on Veterans day. He saved me yet again. I will never look for another orthopedic surgeon. He is without a doubt, the best orthopedic surgeon I have ever met. Thank you Dr. Stevens. Thank you

From the first office visit, through surgery, and post-surgery office visits Dr Stevens and staff were top notch. I never thought I’d be pain free; however after just a few months of therapy and amazing surgery, here I am pain free. Thank you for helping me get my life back!

Thorough and professional.

So experienced and straight forward! Thank you for being so kind and generous with your time!

No real solutions for the money and time...I'm no closer to a solution after this visit. Just experiment more to see what might work.

Each person encountered, from the doc to the front desk, was professional. I liked them all--there's not a slouch in the bunch!

Been seeing Dr Stevens for over 10 years. He’s a great physician/surgeon throughly dedicated to help his patients.

Thorough, patient focused

Gave me options

Dr. Stevens is amazing! His attention to detail about my upcoming surgery and genuine concern for my Health and wellness left me with a positive outlook in the future. I'm fortunate to have him as my Surgeon. MF

Dr. Stevens explained my spine issues & offered his knowledge regarding surgery.

Waited a month to see this specialist. Came in talked with me for all of 5 min. “Whatever reason your back pain is so bad isn’t surgical so there is nothing I can do for you.” Cool that’s it’s? Have fun at Neuro, awesome. Thank you for nothing.

Dr. Steven's is a caring doctor. He is blunt and tells the truth. It drives me nuts but I keep going back. How can he help you if you don't help yourself first? I would recommend him to others who are in need of a spine doctor. Thank you for wanting to help me.

Doctor Stevens and his staff are excellent, professional and very pleasant , I couldn’t ask for better service. Thank you very much

Rude! All they want to do is rush you in and rush you out then later mail you a huge bill. I should have gone with my gut feeling.

Dr. Stevens is fabulous.

Horrible. Unprofessional office staff. PA, Amy was rude and condescending. Dr Stevens refused to see me. saying it was because I was late even though I was still early to my 3:15pm appointment. It took me 3 1/2 months to get this appointment just to be told what I already knew and to not even see the Dr. It was a waste of time. Amy had me in tears sobbing and her attitude was nothing short of a high school bully. She threatened to call security on me because I was upset about them playing games with my appointment. I will post a more thorough review on google and other platforms.

Keeps me knowledgeable about my case; supportive; excellent surgeon.

Dr. Stevens was reassuring and to the point.

Numerous and knowledgeable

As always a great provider explained what is needed and how he thought we should proceed

Does this doctor hate everyone or was it just me or could he be having a very bad day. It should not be taken out on me!

Professional good listener

Very polite and thorough

DOCTOR STEVENS IS THE BEST!!!

Dr Stevens is very nice and straight to the point with great quality and his office and staff are very nice and pleasant. Thank you Dr. for your time

Doctor Stevens showed me images of my neck and explained my issues in a way I understood. He said there was hope for me.??Made some referrals and I was on my way! Very efficient! This was my third consultation for the same issue. This was the very best experience.

Dr. Stevens was amazing from the first moment I met with him. He put me right at ease, explained everything to me with compassion and expertise. We even commented on each other's socks. So glad he was highly recommended to me.

Highly skilled surgeon. I can tell he is very dedicated to his profession and his patients.

Direct and honest.

Dr Willam Stevens,Very knowledgeable

I met Dr Stevens over fifteen years ago for my first back surgery, I followed hi recovery instructions to a T. Everything that Dr Stevens said was exactly what happened and continues fifteen years later, Best Doctor I have ever met. The man is a true genius when it comes to matters of the spine!

Only Dr. I will let touch my spine.

He can’t do what’s needed says

Thorough and very good at explaining my condition and how and what I needed to improve my situation. Looking forward to getting my surgery

I have worked with Dr Stevens for about 6 years. He always answers my questions and takes care to help me understand my options.

I am 70 years of age and I think Dr.Stevens is not only the best orthopedic surgeon but the best the care a patient could desire and I am a Vietnam veteran. Twice in 11 years he has been able to help me walk again and for that I will always have a special place in my heart for him! I'm sure the positive experience and results will be yours too with the care of Dr.William Stevens.

Dr. Steven's is an awesome surgeon! He "gave me my life back" and I very much appreciate his skills. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! You are my rockstar.

Very attentive and answer all my questions

Great surgeon! One yr out feeling great and back to golf!

Saved my life in 2005. He will be saving it again in December 2021

Great. Appt right on time.

He seemed irritated/agitated not sure if it was at me. I had to ask him to look at the x-rays he may have spent 10 seconds doing that. I have no idea what’s wrong with my back or neck and I guess he’s not interested in looking at that until I go to physical therapy. I’m not exactly sure what to do at this point but I’m probably going to seek another doctors opinion.

Dr. Stevens came highly recommended to me, and he lived up to that recommendation. He is a very dedicated and compassionate surgeon. I am so happy that I had my spinal surgery done by Dr. Stevens. Now I can live a pain-free live thanks to him.

I would highly recommend Dr. Stevens to anyone who needs his medical specialty.

Great experience. The Dr. Was very knowledgeable and I felt comfortable. A new appointment was made for 6 weeks.

I had a very enjoyable experience and I find Dr. Stevens to be just a fantastic guy and a great doctor. Thank you to all the folks that work there too for that was a great experience and also God bless

I was very impressed with Dr. Stevens! He’s confident and knowledgeable and yet soft spoken. I trust him and can’t wait to be out of pain!

Best doctor ever.. fixed my neck as good as new!!!!

Terrible bedside manner, argumentative, doesn't believe patient's pain as described based on "x-rays". Upfront and blunt about surgery risks, seems like he isn't very confident in his abilities.

William Stevens is an excellent ortho doctor ans spine surgeon.

Honest doctor who compassionately tells you what’s wrong and what can be done to correct it.

Dr. S is the ONLY PHYSICIAN I trust with my spine revisions and care. I moved back to Arizona so he could be my surgeon again. He did 8 lumbar revisions in 1999-2000. In 20 years of moving and searching I have not found another surgeon who is as HONEST & REAL as Dr. Stevens

Dr. Stevens didn't seem very happy to see me. Maybe he was having a bad day. No breaking the ice, no getting to know you, no friendly small talk. But VERY quick to let me know my mask was not covering my nose!

It was very nice to know that he understood my feelings

He is an excellent doctor and a good man. His office is run in a very professional manner.

Explains everything & is very knowledgeable

Great communicator and did a great job explaining the information that was discovered.

This was my first visit with Dr Steven’s . What a wonderful doctor loved how personable he was my experience would definitely give more than 5 stars??

Find Dr Stevens is the best thing that ever happened to me. Lower back issues forced me into surgery, fifteen years and counting. I have been back on my bike and back to the pool. Could not ask for a better recovery. Listen to what the man says! He walks the walk and talks the talk. Well done Doc Stevens!!

I literally left there in tears because I waited 2 months to see him and then was treated like I did something wrong. Apparently there must have been a lapse in communication from time of scheduling because he wanted to see an MRI I had from the car accident 3 years ago that was taken by ER but that I didnt have. Didnt know I was supposed to have it. They did their own xray, talked to PA as she walked through some exercises and then he came in for 2 mins tops and spent most of the time chastizing me for not having the images. Spent zero time asking about my symptoms, what I thought is wrong, what daily life is like for me trying to modify my life and cope living with this injury. He said "well, your xray doesnt show anything that needs surgery at the moment" and then went on to express his desire to see an MRI I dont have. I left confused, angry, feel like myself and Aetna will be wasting money on absolutely nothing! SimonMed called to schedule MRI and I was so upset I couldnt speak...

Great first impression!

Dr. Stevens is thorough, straightforward and respectful. I appreciate that he took the time to help me figure out the best plan for action. His staff is kind, and I would highly recommend him and wouldn’t want to go to anyone else.

Always thorough

Dr. Stevens has the expertise, experience, and advice that always helps. Thank you!

Upfront and very Honest!

Nice guy. Appreciate his honesty

As a physician myself for nearly 30 years, it was important to work with a surgeon who is knowledgeable and anticipates and communicates the structural consequences that follow spine procedures at different levels. I am completely satisfied with the excellent care provided by Dr. Stevens and his staff.

I have only seen him once. He gave me good advice at that time.

What a nice doctor. Listened and answered my questions. Nice even with the rebukes he game me.

Super Doctor!

I wanted help with my back pain and I was lectured about my weight and was told physical therapy and pain management. Saw this doc maybe 5 minutes. Rest of time some assistant doc never even examined me. What a joke and a waste of money. Would love to get my co pay back.

Dr Stevens has performed numereous surgeries on my back, and I wouldn't let anyone else work on it.

Excellent . He kept me informed every step of the way. Great follow up. Gave me several options regarding my severe sciatica. I chose surgery and here I am 4 months later pain free. THANK YOU DR. STEVENS!!!!!!

Enjoyed his laid back attitude. Very knowledgeable.

Awesome, love Dr. Stevens!

Unfortunately I had a rather disappointing experience on my visit visit. Dr Stevens walked into the room and announce he was in a bad mood today because his knee hurt. Then said I had arthritis in my neck. Gave no explanation even after i asked what was different between x-rays I had taken last November and now. Did not show X-rays or models to indicate his findings. Told I needed PT.. Honestly he made me feel like I was wasting his time since I was not a candidate for surgery. So at least there is that, Hope their PT department is more helpful. Hope Dr Stevens is able to take care of his knee.

Explained options clearly. Appreciated his honesty.

Great Doctor

During my first visit to Dr. Stevens, he and Amy were very informative and provided me with detailed explanations. This visit with Dr. Stevens left me in tears, feeling defeated and humiliated. Dr. Stevens continually cut me off when I was trying to ask a question or explain myself. He showed a complete lack of empathy and compassion for me as a patient who was simply trying to seek assistance from a medical professional. After my initial visit I referred two of my relatives to Dr. Stevens. I now regret having done that if this is the manner in which they will be treated.

Very personable and kind.

Very knowledgeable, as well as personable. Excellent bedside manner, caring attitude. Spent adequate time for questions and discussion.

Friendly, knowledgeable, and an AMAZING Spinal surgeon ! I could hardly walk when I first seen him, and now I'm back riding my horses again.

Dr. Stevens is great, a very smart man with a good attitude. It's nice to have a doctor that will take a minute to make some small talk. I wish I could hire staff like his. Every in the office is very friendly. And the surgery went well too.

Dr Stevens bed side manner was extremely rude, condescending, and every time I tried to ask questions for a better understanding, he appeared to get annoyed. I clearly have back issues in addition to a slipped disk. He sent me home with a script of "take two Tylenol and I'll see you in 6weeks". My recommendation, find another doctor.

Dr. Stevens and his staff are wonderful.

None

Horrible appointment doctor did not listen and refused to treat me.

Dr Stevens is an Amazing Surgeon and Human Being. Completely trust him and recommend him for anyone with spinal issues. The BEST!

Dr. Stevens is a stellar surgeon. After you know him for awhile, he opens up and reveals his humanity. I highly recommend him as the top surgeon in Arizona

Very professional and also down to earth. Really knows his stuff and an artist hands. Highly recommend Dr. Stevens. ????

Short visit but felt that he answered any questions

Very happy with the success of my back surgery as I have friends who have not had the same result from their surgeries. We highly recommend Dr. Stevens. I

He has went out of his way to accommodate my situation

Dr. Stevens is very thorough in explaining what problems you may have

Best damn doctor around let alone great personality and intellect. Most considerate, respectable, cordial, well spoken individual west of the Mississippi. Saved my neck and saved my life. I wouldn’t be who I am today without him.

I went to two appointments and they both were horrible. He doesn’t listen to anything you say. He will cut you off when trying to explain things to him. Will not recommend him to anybody now.

During my first visit Dr. Stevens was personable and thorough. Looking forward to his direction and recommendations after he has had a chance to assess my records and results.

Always confident in his care and advice.

Honest and to the point!

Doctor Stevens is the best and most experienced doctor I have ever met and he directed me to best direction to resolve my pain and discomfort that I was suffering with.

Great Doctor and person

Very positive, informative and thorough, with all my questions answered as well as my husband who he made a video for explaining all the information about my visit. Excellent bedside manners.

He took X-rays and set me up for an MRI to see what needs to be done.

I'm so glad Dr Steven was thorough explained procedure and considered my concerns

Friendly, personable, and genuine.

very nice and to the point. knows what he is doing and i like that about him.

Nice guy I like his personality! Fits my own!

Dr. Stevens is a great surgeon .

Awesome outcome on my surgery!!

This doctor has very bad bedside manners and was very arrogant and rude seriously made me feel i was not important and that i was a waste of his time!

Dr. Stevens was able to diagnose my neck problem quickly and recommend a plan to get my pain under control in one short visit.

Nice gentleman. Easy to talk to and understand. I will see him in two weeks and make a sound decision then.

U for my Masters waI came to him as an senior man(75) to get evaluation of spine prblems and other arthritis related problems-The first item he brought up was I was 120lbs over weight-I am a senior citizen not a full bac at USC in his weight lecture I brought up the fact that he did not consider Genetics-as a student ofGerontologyu I felt hisevaluationwasvery biased against older Americans(my minor at ASU for my Masters degree was Gerontology) Telling people over 60 they are overweight is rather a strange thing coming from a Orthopedict DR. losing weight at 77 is not impossible but very dangerous-some one teach him som Geriatric medicine-thank you

Very good Doctor

Excellent Surgeon

Very caring

Dr William Stevens didn't even bother to have me do a x-ray or anything else when I asked him about the problem with my lower back he told me that I had fat in between and I had arthritis and if I worked out and lost weight it would go away. This has nothing to do with my back problem where I'd fallen at work . All he did was talk and make me feel like I wasn't hurt, his remedy was totally off the wall. he still never brought up anything about my back pain he never discussed any of the doctors that I'd seen before or anything else he avoided the whole problem. I cannot say that I was happy with him he was rude overpowering and it's his way or the highway.

Rude and rushed.

Great doctor but time spent with patient appears to be minimal and hurried

Very quick appointment while maintaining outstanding professionalism and remaining comfortably personable. Took the time to answer all my questions and I left feeling more hopeful about my condition

Dr. Stevens takes the time to talk to you and discuss the situation. He has a good sense of humor though originally he came across dry.

Great job

Didn't seem to add any value - lacking answers and just repeated assessments already provided by referring physician. Office didn't get/collect records from referring physician prior to appointment. I brought the imaging disc as advised.

One of the best for sure, made me feel as I was his only patient... Highly recommend him and his staff.

I could not feel more comfortable at having my neck disassembled and bolted back together :) I've had a fusion before, so this upcoming one is not unexpected, nor was I particularly worried about it. But Dr. Stevens had me completely at ease, and I admire his confidence. I'm looking forward to getting this completed. thnx, Ron Clesen

Dr stevens remembered me from being a patient 5 years ago. His assistant and nurse that helped me made everything easy with informing me on what I needed to know and letting them know of my back pain. Dr Stevens assured me it’s the same process again we did before and should be easier this time.

Dr Stephens is at the top of his field. I’m very comfortable with him. He spends time with me and treats like a human being and not a diagnosis. He answers questions and offers good advice. His staff are very personable also.

Excellent patient communication - Approachable, to the point, common language easy to understand and pleasant. Explained his observations, gave me recommendation, asked if I was comfortable with approach.

Really what was the point of me coming in? Just because I've been in pain for years, doesn't mean that I don't need help or that surgery might help or not help 🤷🏼‍♀️ I really thought that I would get a positive response to my problems and I will go get a second opinion because I can't live like this. No one should live in pain every day of their life especially when you're only 50 years old. Oh well

Doctor was very rude! As if he doesn't want to help me. I wasted my time.

Dr Stevens is an excellent surgeon. He and his staff members have all been great and very professional. They handled my FMLA stuff with my HR Dept to! He fixed my L5 S1 hurniated disk! I’m in PT now and doin great! Thank you Dr Stevens !! God Bless!

Very knowledgeable and very kind. Great Surgeon.

Very impersonal and spent 10 minutes and most of time was with PA. Seemed disinterested.

Dr. Stevens and P. A. Amy

Very informative that helps when you are afraid. Excellent bedside manners

The experience that I’ve had so far with Dr. Stevens and his PA Amy Knighton has been perfect! They compliment each other well.

Very professional,And on key,Respectful and compassionate.

Dr. Stevens did my back surgery two years ago and I was pain free five days later. I had been in pain for over twenty years, with severe pain the last two. He gave me my life back.

I have had 3 back operations. Dr Stevens was the surgeon for all 3. He is great

Dr Stevens took a good amount of time to discuss my concerns and give me reassurance. I highly recommend him. I'd definitely go back if more concerns come up with my back/neck.

Great doc. New office is very nice. Staff is very pleasant.

Dr. Stevens has done a surgical procedure on me several years ago, and now he is taking care of my Wife. I would not trust any one else's opinion. Thank you Dr. Stevens

Dr Stevens was short and to the point and seemed not so interested in my pain. I believe he was in the room less than 5 min.

Wonderful experience. Dr. Stevens took plenty of time with me and I felt heard and understood. Great treatment plan going forward. Would 100% recommend!

His staff and he are very sufficient and caring re: your needs and conditions. Thank you.

Excellent

Dr. Stevens explains things in whatever manner you might need. He listened to all my concerns and answered all my questions to my satisfaction.

Dr. Stevens is a great Doctor who made me feel comfortable on each and every visit. He took the time to talk with me openly and so I understood what I needed to do in order to get better. He helped me with the healing of my broken back. Thanks you.

Very pleased with my expierence with Dr. Srevens

direct and helpful

I came in with constant headaches and neck pain shooting down my arm and I was told to lose weight and exercise. I was told I have degenerative disc disease, osteoarthritis and cervical spondylosis and to live with it. Took all of 5 minutes.

Dr. Stevens and Amy are absolutely amazing! I went in for severe back pain back in May I was basically bedbound and crippled but I woke up after my procedure feeling better and my quality-of-life has skyrocketed! I am so thankful that these two were able to fix my back problems.

Dr. Stevens gave me advise that maybe I didn't WANT to hear, but that I NEEDED to hear. And because I decided to take his advise, I am on my way to improved physical health in more ways than one. I'm grateful for his honesty.

He knows what he's doing

He explained to me in a way that I could understand what my problem was and how to correct it. Dr. Stevens is awesome.

Straight forward and down to earth.

Kind staff, clean...felt safe in their office.

So far he is everything I expected him to be. My surgery is scheduled within the next month. I am so looking forward to the relief I know I will experience.

The best spinal surgeon by far.. recommend to family, friends and all who suffer from back pain. I've had spinal fusion done by Dr. Stevens and I couldn't be happier with the results. Simply amazing ??

This doctor clearly had a chip on his shoulder from the moment he walked in. I didn’t feel like he cared about my case or helping my situation at all. He was cold, rude, and unwilling to help. He stated he was only there to “consult”. He was okay with doing the bare minimum. What I was asking for in help was clearly within his means. His attitude was very negative. My experience was horrible and I left feeling defeated, sad, embarrassed, and disappointed. He could have been KIND. But he wasn’t. And that’s what makes me mad. I didn’t care what his answers or diagnosis’ were. KINDNESS goes a long way. I will never be going back there. I’ve seen a lot of doctors in the last few years. He was by far the worst experience.

He and Amy did an amazing surgery to correct my back from leaning forward. It was beyond my expectations and the recovery period exceptionally short. Amazing results.

I have had a past fusion surgery preformed by Dr Stevens with great results. I’m back because I feel he is the best surgeon for my needs. Considerate and patient In his explanation of the best approach for your health.

Highly knowledgeable and always honest and most importantly, always a pleasure to see Doctor Stevens.

Explaining the procedure I'm having was made where I could understand. He was patient as well. Excellent Physician.

Dr Stevens only spent about 5 minutes with me. He seemed to be preoccupied. His assistant did spend about 20 minutes discussing my issues.

He is truthful & easy to listen to. I left knowing much more than before & Dr. Stevens was obviously there to help, not to push treatment.

Thank you! Easy peasy appointment and explained details

Completely realistic. Very up front and quite comforting.

Dr. Stevens is a very caring man. On top of that, he is a very talented surgeon!

Great Dr...

Dr. Stevens as not only my doctor be I was able to trust him & he also became my friend. I highly recommend him.

Definitely knows what he’s doing, and did fantastic work. I highly recommend him.

Professional and to the point.

Absolutely outstanding surgeon and man in general. Replace my C-5 C6 that was completely degenerated and I couldn’t be happier. After 10 years of suffering with excruciating debilitating pain he gave me life back.

Friendly and through doctor. Staff were courteous and helpful. All listened to my concerns and provided answers to my questions. I highly recommend Dr. Stevens and his staff.

Outstanding surgeon and patient advocate.

During our visit, Dr Stevens brought up an answer on the pre-visit pain questionnaire in which I had stated that pain kept me in bed most days. I confirmed that as accurate. Then he flatly asked “...why?” as if that were a totally inappropriate and unheard of response to living with chronic pain. I tried to say, “well, I’m in pain, I’m depressed, I feel hopeless...” and he said nothing. He seemed disinterested. I felt invalidated and unheard. My pain is real and my experience is valid.

Great Dr. Better man!

He was absolutely a waste of my time.

Excellent care.. professional office staff and medical team. Highly recommend due to successful surgical procedure performed in 2019.

Dr. Stevens corrected my husbands back problems. I am now going to see Dr Stevens for my neck and back issues. I wouldn't go to anyone else. Highly respected, professional, caring and has an excellent staff.

I appreciate Dr. Stevens honesty and the time he takes to explain and show diagnosis.

He couldn't have been in the room more than a minute, more of the problem was with the PA. She pretty much said I was too fat are referred me to a nutritionist. Will not be returning or referring anyone to this office.

I was a new patient. I will not be back.

Dr. Stevens is exceptional, he cares and I highly recommend him!

Dr. Stevens is awesome. He has done two surgeries on me with great results. He takes my well being into consideration and I trust him comepletely

He was very rude because he had to see me because I was 7 mins late for the first time. So if a patient would have held him up 7 mins that he was seeing and I had to wait it would be perfectly fine. His attitude was disgusting i pay to see him it’s not like this is free I paid $182 to be treated so horrible. I will not be returning and do not recommend this doctor. Save your time and money for a doctor that actually cares. I’ve never had such a horrible experience with a doctor it’s so sad.

Outstanding. Brilliant, good teacher, compassionate, exceptional surgeon!

Very pleased with the care I have received!

first meeting with Dr. Stevens.

Very friendly and caring.

Doctor demonstrated professionalism , straight forward medical advice and gave positive input regarding my health condition ! I recommend him highly.

Explained everything

Excelente Dr

I love Dr. STEVENS! He gave me "my life back" and I am grateful & blessed! Thank You for your excellent surgical skills and caring for me.

Seems very knowledgeable-gets to the point-still few questions regarding a procedure-and wish he would ask do you have questions or is there something you don’t understand-just little more time with him

Love the guy who is definitely blessed by GOD

Very professional. The Dr. And his staff were very efficient on getting me in and out. Plus they answered all of my questions

The best and most honest Orthopedic surgeon I've seen. Very professional and takes his time explaining everything in plain English.

Thank you!

Initially went for tailbone pain. They sent me to PT which does nothing for tailbone pain. Went back to office only to be told "There is nothing that can be done for tailbone pain. Thank you, goodbye." THEN WHY DID THEY EVEN SEE ME THE FIRST TIME!?! The doctor and the office are very stuck up and arrogant. If you ain't rich - do go here!

Always makes me feel very comfortable ( and makes my back feel better too!)

Dr Stevens really does care for his patients I had surgery from him 10 years ago Well I need some more I wouldn’t go to any one else

Best Back spine Dr. Fixed my back 3 years ago. I have my life back .

Excellent doctor!

Didn’t appear to like questions

Was seen by an attending yet she provided concise information and was able to set up schedule for further testing to deal with my condition. Would recommend this office to others in need of spinal care.

No nonsense. Just gave me the facts.

So very kind and thoughtful!!! I felt that he was truest concerned for my wellbeing...

Doesn’t listen just talks. Not the friendliest happiest doctor I’ve met.. seems he hates his job.

Made sure that all our questions and concerns where answered. Appreciated how he addressed my son(14) .

Talented surgeon and very straight forward with comments and consultations.

I appreciate his frank, no nonsense advice.

If you are over 60 and over weight, with back problems, don't bother coming here. He only wants to serve the healthiest of us.

Was referred by my primary care physician. While I acknowledge his credentials, Dr. Stevens came across very assuming, callous and impatient! Was looking forward to meeting with Dr. Stevens and was very disappointed! Would not recommend!!

Really nice man, knows his business

He barely introduced himself before pawning me off to the PA. I was originally asked if I wanted the PA or doctor and I chose the later date for him. I’m not going to let the PA do the surgery so it is important that I get to know the doctor.

Meh, just didn't much care for him... If I would have to have surgery, I would not want him to do it.

Very pleasant, listening to my questions, answering each one. He had numerous wonderful photos hanging in the office that he had taken.

Acted as if I was wasting his time. Arrogant. Spent about 3 minutes with me. Didn't explain anything. I definitely felt that he didn't care about me at all. I felt from his words and demeanor that he thought I shouldn't have come there .

Dr Stevens

I was very impressed, felt he was honest with me, giving me the impression that he was concerned for my present and future health. He was very honest about what could have been hard to acknowledge.

Good to see a straight forward doctor that tells you how it is

Excelente Dr . Stevens thank you

Fantastic doctor/surgeon - gives you the facts and what can be done.

I wish he would take a little more time to go into depth about my condition. Friendly but hurried.

Dr. Stevens was good but did not seem to want to spend more than minimal time today. I felt rushed.

This was my first appointment with Dr. Stevens and I found him to be very caring, knowledgeable and genuine. Definitely trust him for all my medical needs.

Was just an OK doctor, didn’t explain a lot to me and seem to be very rushed.

I have been to many Doctors over the years I was a patient of Dr Stevens back in 2007 I have always spoken so highly of him all these years I needed to see him again after all these years he is the same concerned caring man I remembered Thank you

I wish I would have gone to him before I went to cedars sinai.....

From the time Dr. Stevens walked through the door, it was like an iceberg floated in. He was cold, unfriendly, uncaring, quick, smartass, sarcastic and condescending.
