This is my first visit with Dr. Stewart. It took a few months to get an appointment with him, but it was worth the wait. I felt comfortable from the beginning,? excellent bedside manner, ?? within the first 20 minutes he was able to help me come up with a positive game plan to help me achieve the health goals i’ve set out for myself, if Dr. Stewart relocate to a different office, I’ll be transferring also lol I ?Highly recommend Dr. Stewart! I would also like to thank the receptionist and the nurses who helped me on my visit. It was excellent, I can’t say anything more highly.

The Dr. And his entire staff was friendly and knowledgeable, and my wait time was great, almost as soon as I filled out my paperwork, I was taken back to the exam room. Dr. Stewart answered all of my questions and was very thorough in my exam, since I was new to his office, that was important to me. Being new to the area I was worried about finding a doctor that I could feel comfortable with, I found the PCP that I was looking for in Earl Stewart, MD.
March 20, 2023Manuel B.Verified patient
This was the best doctor visit I’ve experienced since me moving to Atlanta 8yrs ago. This was my first visit and Dr. Stewart is the best. He listened and explained everything to me. I felt the concern regarding my health and not just put me on medication that feed the pockets of some physicians. I would recommend Dr. Stewart to anybody. He’s definitely a doctor that cares.
March 8, 2023Kim W.Verified patient
