      I love Dr. Stakelin. She always discusses what she is thinking with me and includes my opinion in the treatment. She is very knowledgeable and I have had great results since the first time I went to her. Only one time had my A1C gone above the target numbers and that was my fault.

      Dr Stakelin is a true treasure!!!! She listens to my concerns and is so knowledgeable about even my general health issues like my chronic pain! I'm not just a diabetic to her - I am a person with diabetes and she's savvy enough to treat her patients as something more than a diagnoses!!! She is a joy and takes the time to make me feel like she has all the time in the world to meet with me - she's never hurried or rushed and that is so rare in healthcare today!
