Urlogy Associates-Central Mo: Dresner Steven M MD

I have been seeing Dr. Dresner for at least 12 years. He discovered that I had prostate cancer and recommended treatment that has saved my life. 3 of my 4 brothers had prostate cancer and one of them died of it because he chose a treatment that Dr. Dresner told me would be fatal and it was. Today it has been 10 years since I had a prostatectomy, which was the treatment that Dr. Dresner recommended. However, he allowed me to make the decision. He has always been direct, open and honest with me. And today he gladly told me he never wanted to see me again because no cancer has returned in 10 years.

Dressner is knowledgeable but is condescending and made me feel uncomfortable. As a surgeon he seemed confrontational when I chose radiation treatments for my early stage prostrate cancer instead of surgery. He then had the nurse give me a 6 month hormone shot (very expensive) without going into detail of the ramications. After the radiation he wanted to give me a second hormone shot but the oncologist said it was unnecessary. Most of what I have heard from friends about this clinic is negative.

Dr. Dresner was one of the rudest doctors I’ve ever been to. He basically called me a hypochondriac and told me to do sit-ups cause I just have a back ache. Didn’t listen to anything I said made me feel like I was a waste of time. I just wanted answers for a kidney issue I’ve been dealing with off and on for 5 years and ways to control the excruciating pain I have at times and the best he had for me was “do 10 sit-ups a day”. Wish I had read reviews before wasting my money on him.

The rudest doctor I have ever delt with. Abruptly told me to get tested for MS and get a massage after yelling at me for telling him my symptoms, which he asked for!!! Abrasive with a God complex. God's office lady said I needed to come back for another visit when I called with the same symptoms from a year ago. God then basically questioned why I was at his office again. Well God, YOUR office told me I needed to come back in, you should know this God. It's not like I enjoy hanging out at your urology clinic watching prostate slides on my day off.

Went in to see if i could find answers about my condition the guy literally came in with disbelief continued to tell me it wasnt real and that he had never heard about this condition im in discomfort and was just trying to find out whats going on he said he didnt believe me and that it wasnt real ... like i really want to go onto a doctors office to be called a liar and not have any real discussion about my issue he was very rude i had to tell him he was offending me and all i wanted was help or to figure what was going on completely disregarded my issue
