National Jewish Health Patient – May, 2023
Considering I was ticked off at the amount of time I had to sit there waiting for my appt. And how short I was and abrupt I thought he did an excellent job diffusing the situation and taking care of my medical issues and I felt more than confident with his treatment plan, and I look forward to coming back! But I will NOT come in 30 mins early next time I might even arrive 15 mins after my scheduled appt time!

National Jewish Health Patient – April, 2023
Dr. Stepp is one of the three best doctors I've ever been to see. I've have trepidation when seeing a new doctor, after more than a few disappointments over the years. But Dr. Stepp met and exceeded any high expectation I might have secretly harbored. Thank you Dr. Stepp for the quality of care, concern, humor, compassion and knowledge you brought to my visit. You restored my faith in medicine and big institutions.

-

Dr Stepp demonstrates exceptional knowledge in his field of practice and I feel confident and comfortable in the care he provides. He's one of the best Drs I've been to.
-
National Jewish Health Patient – October, 2022
My visit was very good but the reason I am not rating higher on recommending him is that I have had past visits where I felt hew as not interested by my case and did not show much compassion about my situation. He was also not very creative or interested in suggesting how I might adapt to my diagnosis or how to manage daily activities.
-
National Jewish Health Patient – October, 2022
Good.

National Jewish Health Patient – May, 2022
Dr. Stepp listened to the changes that has occurred in my asthma before and after recently having Covid. I had a plan in mind to get myself under control and Dr. Stepp listened and we came up with a plan of action for the next six months. I appreciate that Dr. Stepp is good about either himself or through his nurses communicating well through the portal to answer questions or make adjustments to meds.
-
National Jewish Health Patient – May, 2022
Excellent experience overall
-
National Jewish Health Patient – March, 2022
I felt very at ease and was well informed on what the next steps will be for my treatment.Understandably that due to covid backlog it took along time to be seen, and tests to be completed.

I am very relieved to be under the care of Dr, Stepp and to be treated at National Jewish Health. Dr. Stepp is the first doctor in my 20 years of dealing with my condition that has truly taken the time to LISTEN to me and guide me through steps to help treat my condition. He seems like he really cares about helping me. I cannot say in words how much I appreciate him.

National Jewish Health Patient – January, 2022
Dr. Stepp was very well prepared as to my case history and spend considerable time with me during the visit. We had a thoughtful and thorough discussion regarding my concerns, recommended diagnostics, and initial treatment plans. His listening and communication skills were excellent. After this initial consult, a PA/NP spent considerable time with me reviewing medication usage, MEDFACTS, and TESTFACTS. Overall this was an excellent interaction, extremely well done!
-
National Jewish Health Patient – January, 2022
Dr. Stepp spent a lot of time with me, explaining benefits of getting a Covid shot. I remain unconvinced, but appreciate hisLevel of concern, and his explanation.
-
National Jewish Health Patient – January, 2022
Dr Stepp and his team, including those in both the Highlands Ranch office and the NJ Main Hospital in Denver have consistently exhibited true compassion as they help me rover from COVID. Dr Stepp spent a full hour with me 1:1 and would have spent more had it been necessary. I've not once felt rushed or sidelined throughout the past two months of care I've received from NJ. Truly remarkable care!
