    Truly a beautiful and fantastic human being! I will never stop praising Dr. Stipleman - her candor, respect for her patients, her authentic desire to coordinate care with me as a parent¿.I will never let my children have anyone else as a primary physician. And, I will cry tremendously huge tears when she retires. I will be heartbroken!

    UH HOSPITALS AND CLINICS

    I'm not sure what more I can say about Dr. Stipleman!! We love her - she is such a force for good, and exceptional medical practitioner. I can honestly say I have never had a bad experience with her, and my daughters adore her. I wish all doctors could follow her lead. Her bedside manner is so inclusive, non-judgmental, and based in reason after considering all viewpoints. I would consider her not only an amazing part of raising my kids, but an incredibly gifted colleague that I hold in high regard. I hope to be like her one day :-)
