Dr. Steven Andrew Esser, MD

A wonderful caring Dr. He is with you during the whole procedure. Giving you all the care and attention you need.

I left his care with 2 types of informed. Misinformed and uninformed.

I feel that this doctor was deceptive by omission, if full disclosure of how much pain and discomfort comes along with a certain procedure that was performed on me, I would have suffered without the surgery, I do appreciate the doctor as a man and as a physician attempting to make someone's life better, yet at the same time I feel that it is your responsibility as a doctor specifically a surgeon to inform your patients of anything and everything that can go wrong, will go wrong , has gone wrong and how much pain to expect in the following months, there was absolutely no disclosure. The worst part is the pain is so unmanageable that when you call the office and ask for pain meds they tell you, They don't prescribe anything stronger than a standard painkiller and at the same time will verbally confirm that this procedure is one of the most painful! When were in 2016 and there are multiple ways to stop pain by nerve blocks etc... this DR uses a substance used since Alexander the great… and even ancient China. With Five nights of no sleep after the procedure and four separate phone calls to the doctor's office along with an additional trip to the emergency room to get my pain under control. Absolutely unacceptable practice of Medicine to allow your patients to be in constant pain and discomfort ,John Hopkins university has done a study that suggests individuals that suffer from pain after a surgical procedure are five times more likely to be diagnosed with PTSD after said procedure." I will not be able to trust another doctor ever again after my experience with this surgeon" I have initiated contact with the board and possible sanctions to follow. Examples need to be made of individuals who perform outside the standard of care.

My husband and I brought a friend to him and he has given THE BEST care of any doctor I have ever met.

He went above and beyond to work on taking out my tumor. Saved me from rectal cancer. Extreme expertise and great bedside manner. Takes time to see his patience and answers all questions, and gives great referals for anything he cannot answer. Would recommend him to anyone.

Dr. Esser has amazing patience, sensitivity, and genuine concern. He is very direct and confident in his practice. I can't say enough good things about this doctor. He gave me my life back. He is highly recommended. He and his staff are truly wonderful.

Dr. Esser is a excellent surgeon. He is most caring. Takes time and liston to your problems. I have never felt more comfortable with the care he has given me and my family..........He is a angel sent from heaven.
