His caring, compassionate, and professional demeanor is highlighted throughout the reviews, with patients describing him as kind, friendly, and personable.

Patients also share
While the overwhelming majority of reviews are highly positive, a few areas for improvement emerge from the feedback. One patient expressed concern about privacy during a video visit when another person was visible in the background looking at the camera. A couple of patients mentioned instances where visits were not particularly helpful or where follow-up communication was lacking, such as one patient who reported no follow-up after being told to answer the phone to schedule an X-ray. One review noted that while Christopher Stern is excellent, he sometimes lacks adequate support from other departments. A very small number of reviews indicated that certain visits did not yield helpful outcomes, though these were rare exceptions.
