I loved his frankness -- he wasn't selling anything, just giving me the facts and helping me has options to make a decision. He has a very engaging personality and is happy to discuss anything with you. Aside from the Dr, the Office Staff is also amazingly nice and helpful, and even let me know that a potential issue with my insurance company (due to my name change) will be handled by them, and I'm not to worry. I don't need surgery right now, but when I do -- Dr. Neufeld will definitely be my choice.

Zoc Doc screwed up my name, gave me the wrong appointment time & prevented my accessing patient portal by patching in wrong zip code & wrong spelling of name. Someone named Anna called me & said my appointment was @ 2:00, but when I got there, I was told that wasn't accurate. Zoc Doc = disappointment. Doctors Direct support staff assistant not happy working as physical therapist asst & verbalized dislike for the past year & a half working there. The front office manager person did not download xrays I brought in, so doctor took new ones. The doc asst was snacking on food & chatting up other support staff instead of getting records for doctor. Was left waiting for 1 hour & 45 minutes. Support staff showed a very little respect for the patient's time. Doctor was very nice, but did not seem personally connected. Computer system was down so doctor could not review the xrays he took. The wait was a let down & the staff's communication was cold clinical, but I do have faith in the doctors ability and hope first time impression was a fluke. Crossing fingers for next time.

I've seen Dr. Neufeld several times through the years. He is most probably my favorite doctor of all time. He is highly skilled and one of the area's most prominent doctors. That's important. Almost as important, his personality and humility. I can't recommend him enough!

Dr. Neufeld is the best in the business.

I was impressed by the whole clinic. All seemed to be doing their jobs well. I instinctively trusted and liked Dr. Neufeld. I expect to have him repair my ankle.

Kind, professional and knowledgeable physician.

The practice is very large and clearly run with tight processes. They occupy a single building that was built to their specifications and they have a very large and professional staff. I had to wait over an hour to see the doctor and this was a 10:20am appointment. I am unsure whether I would recommend them. I will however be going back for a follow up appointment so that's a good sign right?

Really listened to why I was there for a visit and asked questions. He provided an assessment for a short term recommendation and long term recommendation.
January 31, 2013Maria V.Verified patient
Steve is a great physician in every way. Exudes competence. Easy to talk with. Great judgement in a profession (orthopaedic surgery) that has more than its share of cowboys. This morning's visit was like any other: a pleasure. Hard to believe I'm writing that about chat with someone who's going to be cutting me open a bit. But, true.
January 11, 2013George S.Verified patient
This was a "second opinion" type visit. Dr Neufeld explained everything thoroughly and confirmed the "no further treatment needed" first opinion.

Dr. Neufeld was excellent. He quickly and accurately diagnosed my ankle injury, was available and responsive with followup questions, and put me at ease for what looked worse than it actually was. I highly recommend him.
