I’m a 3 rd generation that went to Richard for 18 years ,my dad and grandparents saw him even longer!! Dr. Stein was by far the top notch best doctor ever!! UH was ignorant in letting him go, he saved me when I was depressed and scared upon getting a cancer diagnosis and helped me tremendously over the years with my rheumatoid arthritis and a wonderful “therapist” for my anxiety!!! I wish him the very best on his retirement.

Dr. Stein is a one in a million, stellar physician. If only all individuals could experience someone with his critical thinking skills, astute listening ability and generous heart! He is a gift to humanity. I was so very fortunate to experience such a formidable physician early in my life. Sincerely, Sandy S.

Dr. Stein is the most thorough and caring professional I have ever met. He actually listens to me and is willing to diagnose and treat based on symptoms, rather than on blood work alone. He diagnosed me when 4 other doctors had been unable, and his treatment has been spot-on. I am totally grateful to Dr. Stein and can most heartily recommend him.

This doctor was strawberry blond when he first started working with me as a patient. Over the 30 years I worked with him, he turned gray-haired. If that was my fault, I'm sorry. He is an incredible doctor, and besides the accuracy of his treatment choices, is an incredible diagnostician. Understand why he left, but I really hate to lose him. Boca Raton is too hard to get to from Cleveland every time I wish I could see him.

Dr. Stein was my doctor for over 30 years. He was one of the few doctors that I knew actually listened to me when I had problems. I sincerely regret that he has moved to Florida from Ohio, and miss him, but wish Dr. Stein and his family well and hope life treats him as well as he always treated me.

Without Dr. Stein, I would be receiving no treatment for an autoimmune, mixed connective tissue disease. I like to call it "Stein's Disease". He believes in his patients and puts their needs first. It is not just me that is sick, but my care plan always includes my input,. I couldn't be happier with THE BEST rheumatologist ever....
