Disappointingly, Dr. Stewart failed to greet my aunt (the patient) when he came into the examining room. He simply grabbed her foot and began announcing the conditions that he noticed. Once he'd identified the obvious issues, he went into no detail about how they would be addressed. We had to ask pointed questions in order to get any insight into care options. Instead of explaining all courses of actions that could be taken to improve her feet, he omitted explanation of services that insurance wouldn't cover--perhaps assuming we wouldn't pay. Dr. Stewart's expertise wasn't evident because he said so little and failed to display congenial doctor/patient etiquette. I give one star because his interns, however, were very good.
