Dr. Seal has been a consummate professional with me. He is an excellent physician, no not warm and fuzzy but isn't what we want in a doctor is knowledge and experience? He is the only doctor, who, ultimately, resolved my chronic sinus infections by getting me on a a nebulizer. His medical expertise has improved the quality of my life considerably.

Stay away from Dr. Stephen Seal!!! I was referred to him because I had a lump on my neck I wanted diagnosed. Not only does he have the worst bedside manner I've ever seen in a doctor, you can tell how arrogant he is just by the way he walks; then how he talks to you confirms it. He said what I had was a tumor in the parotid gland and he needed to do a biopsy to rule out cancer. Of course, I had to sign a waiver before the biopsy. When I questioned the assistant about the form, which claimed I had received information I never did, she said it was "just a standard form." In other words, you either sign it or you don't get the biopsy, even if you're signing something that is not true. But I guess that's the medical industry in a nutshell.

The biopsy was a quick procedure, and I went home with a band-aid on the punctured wound. The day after, however, the whole area was inflamed, bruised, I felt sick all over, had a fever and shooting pains throughout my head. The tumor was twice its size and extremely sore to the touch. It was the weekend, so I managed the pain as best as I could, although it made sleeping almost impossible. It still hurts, but I'm using homeopathy to treat it, now that I know what it is. I would NEVER again put myself in the hands of such careless, incompetent doctor!

Dr. Seal should be banned from practice. In a few minute consultation, his arrogant nature and "god" complex was apparent. Although we tried to discuss the complexation of my son injury he was matter-of-fact and abrasive. His treatment plan was superficial and he avoided any commitment towards any success. His comments suggested he doubted his ability towards successful treatment. The attending surgeon from the hospital seem to be as surprised as we were, with Seal comments and treatment prognosis. Seal couldn't even maintain eye contact when we were discussing surgery options. The next day, we found a doctor in Asheville who successfully treated our son. Our son is recovering very well, because of our decision to avoid Seal and if you are considering using this idiot - proceed at your own risk - you will be sorry. I plan to spread the word about this idiot to whom ever I can. People need to know about this jerk before they put there care in his incapable hands.
