He truly is the best of the best in his field! I'm really thankful that I now have him as a GI motility specialist. I was pleasantly surprised by how much compassion and understanding he has for people struggling with eating disorders, as that is something that is usually held against me by medical professionals. He made me feel better when he said that I shouldn't feel guilty for ending up in this predicament where my motility is so bad, that I have nothing to feel guilty about. That really hit home for me...I needed to hear that! I just wish he gave me a creative option to work towards getting my GI system to start working again...he told me it's past the point where I can turn it around outpatient, and that I need to go inpatient to [redacted] or a similar place.

The only issue I have is I'd like to follow up with Dr. Staller for my follow up appointment in September and not his PA. I feel continuity of care with the same provider is essential but I did hear that his PA was wonderful so I look forward to meeting her.

Over the past 10 months, I have met with many different doctors and specialists to address and unknown autonomic illness I developed, and Dr. Staller was by far the most helpful, respectful, engaging, and invested doctor I met with. From the moment he walked in the room, he met me with kindness, attention, and meaningful care. He verbally walked me through his thinking process, ensuring I understood all aspects before he continued further explanations and potential care routes. Before meeting with him, I had been frustrated with how long the appointment took to schedule; however, I can say with 100% confidence that it was worth the wait to meet with such an incredible GI doctor like himself. I cannot begin to express how grateful I am for him and his time. I highly recommend anyone who is experiencing GI symptoms in addition to other autonomic symptoms to seek his guidance and medical advice.

Dr. Staller was able to explain what was happening with an issue I've been dealing with for almost 7 years after trying so many things. He seemed really engaged and like he was considering multiple different angles in providing me with feedback and was honest and empathetic when there were aspects of the prognosis that were disappointing. His explanations of aspects of the GI system were crystal clear with analogies that made sense. I had been waiting 6 months to see a top expert and it felt like that's exactly what I got - well worth the wait. I am grateful for the expertise and the kind, engaged care Dr. Staller offered. His fellow was also very helpful and skilled at gathering information while making me feel listened to and allowing me an opportunity to share my experiences. I felt like she was understanding and not rushing me while still keeping things on track (I am very talkative). Thank you!

I have never had a doctor or dr office spend so much time carefully listening to my case and asking thoughtful follow-up questions. They provided multiple options for treatment plans and explained each carefully, as they applied to my specific symptoms. After choosing a plan, action was immediately taken to begin addressing my needs.

As someone with Endo and a history of chronic conditions, I have seen dozens of providers. Dr. Staller, has by far, been the best doctor I have ever seen in my life. He was kind, thorough, patient, detailed, timely. Well worth the wait to see him. I wish more doctors were like this. But he is exceptional. I appreciate that he spent so much time with me and that the appointment did not feel rushed.
