Stephen Faulkner, MD

How blessed are we to have a surgeon of Dr. Faulkner caliber right here in the Verde Valley! We hope he never retires! My Husband Roger is recovering from hernia surgery that went flawless. Great staff, super efficient and so caring! Derek was his nurse and I dont think we have ever had a better one! Thank You Dr. Faulkner & Derek Job well done and we are so appreciative!

This doctor is unprofessional with terrible bedside manner. My young daughter went in for an appointment. He had her undress half way with him still in the room and no nurse present. Then he proceeded to talk down to her and open the room door with only a thin peice of fabric over her body. He should retire because apparently he's common sense is failing him.

Dr. Faulkner is a quality surgeon, is extremely knowledgeable, and has great bedside manner when he is available. He is a truly professional life-long surgeon and has performed life-saving surgery on me in the past. But receiving proper pain management post-surgery through him and his office has been difficult or impossible recently. Would not recommend his office for painful surgeries unless your Primary Care provider will pick up the slack regarding post-surgery pain management. This is a problem of the opiate crisis, but it's a major shame when it leads to responsible individuals being unable to get the pain relief they need.
