Ivan Stukalau, MD

All good

[redacted] This Dr is superb. Sharp, follows protocol [redacted]

He explained everything I asked him

Dr Ivan does a good job at talking with me holistically, good listener and does a good job with follow up.

You don't give me time.

It was great to meet Ivan and establish my new PCP

Good visit...thorough

Overall they do a great job!

Excellent for provider and nurse...couldn't ask for better?

They are excellent would highly recommend

My provider's very good, excellent. I plan on keeping him for a doctor as long as he's still around and I'm still around. So I guess that sums up pretty much. He's excellent, good doctor. So thank you very much.

excellent

Dr Ivan Stukalau was very attentive and thorough during his examination. He paid attention to the details and was open and friendly during my visit. I felt very satisfied that his recommendations, of which there were many, was in by best interest. [redacted]

Very happy with the Dr. We got into some areas that have been concerns and neglected for several years by both myself and the doctors in the past. I have been referred to a specialist who will at the very least put my concerns to rest and/or address what seems to be a problem. I felt it a very productive visit with several changes that seem to be helping after only a few days. [redacted]

I waited a year and a half for this physical. Ivan was completely unprepared for my visit, knew next to nothing about me and only seem interested in getting blood work done. Asked almost no questions. And the oddest moment was when he told me he is really busy, has 2000 patients and if I do not hear from him, to reach out [redacted]

Knowledgeable, considerate and attentive

He was polite sand couteous.

Dr. Ivan cares about me and my health. I'm having my right knee replaced and he was concerned about my circulation and heart. He ordered tests to be done before surgery to put everyone's minds at ease

No complaints.

Dr. Ivan was very cordial and easy to talk to. I found him to be very thorough and detail oriented. I see him as a kind person with a desire to do all he can to keep his patients in good health. And I liked him as a person.

Dr Ivan is the best provider I have ever had in my [redacted] years. He helped me more in his first 2 hours with me than my former provider helped in 20+ years. And he continues to amaze me. My health is getting SO MUCH BETTER. I feel extremely blessed to be Dr Ivan's patient.

I felt very comfortable with my new primary care provider. He listened to my concerns and took appropriate actions to recommend followup steps.

Dr Ivan is amazing and takes the time to understand my medical needs. Very helpful!

I really liked everything about this new Dr. that I saw for the 1st. time.

This was my first visit as a new patient. Dr. Stukalau was very thorough and receptive and responsive to my questions.

Excellent

My doctor was very helpful and attentive.

Awesome

I am pleased with the detail orientation of Dr. Ivan. He seems to really care about me as his patient and he wants to treat and find any underlying issues and work with me on addressing them. So I'm very happy again with Dr. Ivan.

I appreciate the time that he took with me and my husband during the visit.

All was addressed in a nice manner

I'd liked him very much. And believe I was receiving good care.

Yes, it's always been a positive experience actually with Wentworth in general there. So from the doctors to all health professionals there and the clinical staff, they make you feel welcome and it's a comfortable feel, very positive.

Dr. Stukalau is an excellent physician and has been a wonderful comfort as a whole well being advocate as I've gone through breast cancer surgery, chemotherapy and radiation. He's made this whole ordeal less stressful for me. I only hope others going through a similar ordeal have as good an advocate as I have had!! It's easy to think your health revolves around nothing but oncologists while any other health issues get ignored. A good advocate is a reminder you are a whole person.

Thank you for the great care

very caring .

Dr Ivan was focused on me and set me up for follow up on my conditions over a good experance

Dr Ivan Stukalau takes excellent care of me and my husband. We didn't have to wait to be seen. I did wait about 6 months for the appointment. The doctor is worth the wait.

I was very satisfied with all the information provided to me during my appointment. Dr Ivan was very friendly and thorough when explaining results from my recent blood tests and answered all my questions and concerns. He's literally the best doctor I've ever had, and that's being totally honest.

I very much appreciate Dr Ivan's thorough communication and written notes available through the Patient Portal!

Best PCP I've had in years

Dr. Stukalau is a wonderful, caring doctor who listens intently as I discussed my health concerns. He is very thorough and his after visit clinical notes are documented very well on the patient portal.

Very knowledgeable and professional

Great

Dr. Ivan is such a gentle sweet kind provider. He is very attentive to my needs regarding prescriptions. Very convincing to get the Covid shot.

Nice

He was very thorough in speaking about my situation and answering questions that I had. I felt he was listening to me, as I answered his questions, too.

Still spit phlegm up every morning.but I guess that's normal.told doctor about that at first visit.my mother was a nurse and always said spit it out.thats it thanks for....going into medicare is not working very well.not good help from forth floor either. I apologize for not knowing what I'm doing...?

[redacted] Dr. Stukalau is a nice doctor.

Dr. Stukalau is wonderful! He is caring, kind, and a true expert. He studied all of my medical history before coming into the appointment and he explained things so well. I am grateful to have such an excellent doctor. My mother and husband also see Dr. Stukalau- we are thankful to have him as our family's doctor.

I dont think a nurse waited on me..i think they are PA? But she was through and very pleasant

Dr. Ivan is always knowledgeable and patient with my questions. I never feel rushed, and always know that when I leave, all my questions or thoughts will be accepted, acknowledged and answered.

The Doctor and the medical assistant were very thorough. Nice people.

I gave him a 10, but it was my first visit. We'll see how it goes in the future. He is easy to talk to very thorough communicated with me in a nice manner.

he knows his job well

Dr. Ivan was perfect answered all our questions expland everything we asked perfectly we liked him a lot. Has been a very long time since we received such care.

Very concerned with my health and very thorough.

Thorough, intelligent, good listener, well informed about my situation.

Excellent.

This is only my second visit with Dr. Ivan, he kind, thoughtful and listened carefully to my concerns.

Thanks for a good, compassionate experience.

This was my first visit. Ivan seems good and caring [redacted]

He was thorough and clear and answered my questions carefully.

Had not seen him before. He was very knowledgeable, very respectful and polite. I really appreciated his thoroughness.

very attentive and answer questions seriously

Dr. Ivan Stukalau was excellent with [redacted]. He really, he was thorough and when the appointment was done, [redacted] was very, very, very pleased that he saw Dr. Ivan again. So I guess that's really all I have to say. I'm speaking for [redacted] because he has a really hard time with the phone, with his hands. But anyway, he really likes Dr. Ivan and thank you so much for getting him back in there with him.

I truly appreciate seeing Dr. Ivan Stukalau as he reviews my chart gives me his thoughts on each medical issue and makes suggestions/advise that will help me continue to thrive with good health. He is dedicated to his profession and to patients (I am sure). I appreciate that I was assigned to his care.

I found myself asking about blood work results instead of the physician volunteering the results and once he reviewed it said I needed to be placed on medication statin meds for a level that was 8 points above norm. These were lab results that were 3 months old. I also felt the need to refresh the physician on my history like prostate cancer and BP which he should have known.

It was my first appointment with him and we need to establish a level of trust before I can agree to follow his suggestions. I think there is a huge generation gap but I did appreciate his vast knowledge.

Today was my first time meeting with Dr. Stukalau as I was looking for a new PCP.He was very thorough and has suggested tests I've never had before . I found him knowledgeable and I think we can work together to solve my issues.

Dr. Ivan is a wonderful doctor, very patient, he listens carefully, busy guy, but definitely met all of my expectations as a doctor.

Very impressed with this provider.

Best one yet!

Dr. Stukalau is a very good provider. He is [redacted] extreemly smart. I never felt rushed or had to hurry with him. [redacted]

Very friendly, explains all and i am happy.

I am a new patient and this was my first visit. Everyone was very professional and all specialist referrals and testing follow ups were done within 2 days. I am very pleased with the Dr. and nurses.

took time to review all my symptoms and ask relevant questions to probe further. took time to address my health concerns.

Dr Ivan is always thorough and answers all of my questions.

He is very efficient, explains well

Dr. Ivan is not relatable to my concerns and decisions about my choices in healthcare. [redacted]

just great

Dr. Ivan seems very knowledgeable and thorough. He explains everything very well. I gave him an 8 because he is so busy reading from and entering notes into the computer, that eye contact is limited. However, he seems to know his stuff, so I am a happy customer.

Dr. Ivan is very easy to talk to and listens intently.

Dr. Ivan was focused on understanding my history and addressing the care indicated. I appreciate that he had reviewed my history prior to the visit and proposed tests that were designed to get the maximum data needed to proceed with a good course of action. I look forward to working with him in the future.

First visit couldn't make an informed statement yet

All went great and felt comfortable

Yes, my name is [redacted] and I would recommend Dr. Ivan Stukalau to anybody. He is a great doctor. He listens and he's patient and he's very nice, very kind and pleasant. Thank you.

[redacted] Dr. Ivan was wonderful and considering how nervous I was about meeting with him, I think it was a great experience [redacted]

Dr Ivan was very thorough and answered each of my questions and concerns. As did his nurse.

Dr. Stukalau was very thorough and informative.

I have no problem with Dr Ivan ! [redacted]

A good experience; had not met Dr. S before appt.

I wish he had ordered the fasting blood test/s before my annual appointment. I would have liked a recommendation of a few best vitamin companies but he declined to do that ( to avoid any conflict of interests perhaps?)

He listen carefully everything I trying to tell him. He's super nice doctor!

First visit with this provider

I was very pleased with how he was filling me in on what he was about to do and what he needed for information and so forth, how he handled me.

The Dr made me very comfortable. He explained everything that I didn't understand. Answered all my questions.

Dr Ivan Stukalau was great! Smart, articulate, clear and proactive engaging my unique situation with understanding. I have a feeling of trust that he will as he said... "Fix" me !

Doctor was very nice and he made appointments for all areas that need to be addressed.

Dr. Ivan answered all my questions and discussed my concerns.

Outstanding care and support for pcp visit.

In my [redacted] years, Dr. Ivan Stukalau is hands down THE BEST Primary Care Physician I've ever had. No exaggeration! He knows my health history extremely well and mine is complex. I never feel rushed and I can be completely honest with both he and his nurse, [redacted] who is outstanding! I am blessed. Truly.

I am a new patient to Dr Ivan. He was personable and professional and I loved his appropriate dry sense of humor. He showed respect when he popped out while [redacted] gave me my flu and COVID shots. He explained why he was going to prescribe meds and labs. I felt cared for and "seen"! I love having all my other provider's info in the same computer system. That's why I wanted to move to a provider inside the WHP system!

it is just excellent! Thank you.

He is exceptional, very very through. You are very fortunate to have him in your practice. Can't say enough good about him, I was very impressed.

Dr. Stukalau is the most caring and thorough medical provider I have truly have ever met in my many years of personal care and in my 45 year medical career. He listens, takes the time to explain his concerns and reasoning for suggesting testing or medication, AND he actually responds to portal questions himself!!

This was my initial meeting with a new provider. Not a hands-on medical exam. Dr. Stukalau reviewed all the information i provided and arranged followup with other doctors for specific problems. he was quick to respond to a subsequent message i sent on the portal. He appeared very smart and thorough.

Great doctor. Very happy with him

Knowledgeable, articulate, answered some questions even before I could ask them.

Dr. Ivan is a great doctor who listens to me and observes any issues I have and makes recommendations in a caring manner.

To early to tell, this was my first visit.

I found that doctor. Ivan is a wealth of information and definitely pushes hard for preventative care.

I work in healthcare and understand the immense value that PCPs have on patients and the health system. This provider was far too driven by Epic prompts. There was no conversation about me, my medical history, my medications, or my goals. I was 4 months post-partum and not once was my pregnancy, delivery, current post-partum status (eg sleep, potential depression) or future family planning discussed. Pretty shocking to me and a huge missed opportunity to check in on a new mom who gets all her healthcare at MGB. [redacted] I did though leave the appointment feeling very fat (sure, I do have about 15-20 lbs to lose since having my baby) and completely unseen as to why I'm "fat."

He treated me well & with great respect.

I am very happy to have this provider. He's done an excellent job. I have no complaints.

Very professional and thorough. First time I met Dr. S and he was knowledgeable about my health history. Provided clear explanations and directions

one of the best Dr.s I have seen in a long wht.

He listens very well. He's very proactive to help me out and extremely thorough with all my care. I appreciate him so much.

I had good visit with a good exchange of my conditions and a plan on pathfoward.

Professional, knowledgeable and I felt comfortable talking to him.

Dr. Ivan Stukalau was very professional and very knowledgeable, and he took great care to explain. I appreciate his through approach to my health issues.

I was hesitant to have a male doctor as my PCP but after meeting Ivan and his nurse I have changed my mind and want them as my care team. They were thorough, attentive and made me feel like they really care about my health.

Very knowledgeable and easy to converse with Dr. S is very efficient with the time allotted, but you don't feel rushed and answered all my questions

The best doctor I've ever had.

Good experience and recommended follow up activities for me.

Ivan is very profesional

Dr. Ivan is very respectful attentive and interested in my well-being and keeping me healthy. I like the fact that he's trying to get me off pills not put me on more pills. I really respect that he has a great personality and is easy to talk to.

Spent a lot of time with me and did not make me feel rushed. Addressed all concerns. Very kind and explained things thoroughly.

Dr. Stukalau was thorough and professional.

Very positive impression when interacting with this physician.

He seems very competent, but a bit shy, which is not a problem. His explanations were detailed. As well, this is my first visit, so it is too soon to tell some things.

He seems knowledgeable and sensible. Straightforward and efficient.

I explained my chronic pain issues and after examination the doctor conformed the diagnosis but the he was unwilling to prescribe the treatment I was comfortable with.

I recently moved to the New England area and have been searching for a GP internist. After having two unsatisfactory GP visits this past year I finally found an excellent one, Dr Ivan Stukalau. He's great!

[redacted] Dr. Ivan was very pleasant and answered all the questions my wife asked on my behalf. [redacted] Very pleased with the care!!!

This was an initial meeting and consultation. During the meeting the nurse became concerned after the BP procedure. This changed the meeting. The doctor-nurse conducted a test that warranted scheduling further testing. We are awaiting tests, results and follow up.

~ Dr Ivan Stukalau is the best doctor I have had in a VERY long time. He listened to me unload details of my many significant chronic medical issues and proceeded to order labs and radiology for my most significant problem. He LISTENS! I am so very gr8ful to have him for my primary care, and highly recommend him to anyone.

Keep up the good work!

[redacted] He treated me with respect but I felt rushed and being new wanted to build a relationship so that I have consistency in my regular care and ongoing visits. [redacted]

doctor Ivan and the assistant were both great

1st time meeting with the doctor. I got some answers and fast in getting bloodwork an a ultrasound will find out answers soon.

Dr. [redacted] was a tough act to follow, so I was skeptical about Dr. Ivan's abilities. I must say that I was very impressed, so my fears were groundless!

Dr. Stukalau and his nurse are fantastic. They both made me feel comfortable and knew what they were doing.

Supposed to be a physical -did not get a thorough exam . Only listened to my heart, checked thyroid, and lymph nodes by underarms, did not have current information on Covid vaccines, changed my statin based on one blood test

He is the kindest doctor I've ever had the pleasure of meeting with and I'm so excited to move forward with him as my primary

Dr Ivan was very thorough and knowledgeable. His PA in training was also very knowledgeable. He suggested a number of referrals who were very prompt in contacting me

The Doctor was a little rushed due to a schedule issue when I was there.

I really felt comfortable and confident with Dr. Ivan

First visit. Great appointment. Couldn't ask for a better result

Dr Ivan was thorough in his assessment of my medical history and answered all my questions and concerns

Very kind and patient

He was very business.

This was imy first uvisit, with urgent issues. I'mnd very happy with the amount of time and expertise.

Listened to my concerns and took immediate response to my concerns. Was very pleased with this provider.

First time meeting my new PC and he treated me with knowledge and understanding. Felt very comfortable!

Will always recommend this recommend this this place all is very well always very pleasant.

Professional and knowledgeable

This my first visit with this primary care provider. My first impression was positive.

Exceeded expectations

[redacted] I was very impressed with Dr Ivan . He was professional, knowledgeable and interested in listening to me. I felt like I was in very good hands as I was comfortable with his manner and his medical care. I appreciated the visit papers at checkout where he outline what he ordered for my care and I look forward to my continuing relationship as his patient.

He's a very good provider. I like him a lot. That's why I go to him.

I liked them.

Medical issue with walking and balance not addressed Told the nurse

All great listeners.

Wonderful experience, nurse was excellent, doctor was excellent and office staff was excellent. Doctor explained everything thoroughly. I would rate him, his nurse and staff a ten on all areas!

Dr. Ivan was efficient and clear in his communication, however he spent minimal time with me, openly mentioning that he needed to leave for lunch as the cafeteria wasn't available. When he first came in, the nurse and he performed an EKG, he performed an auscultation as well as a neck palpation and addressed my primary complaint of potential cardiac events, confirming the details I provided the nurse and shared what we would be doing (holter) and that full fasting labs were needed too. He did not discuss my second complaint (numbness/tingling in my extremities) nor do any other observations, etc. He set up a plan of action but did not seek input or clarification - simply stating what I was going to do (which are things I agreed with). Just lacked some bedside manner, especially as I was trying to be lighthearted considering it was my first time with him (as a transfer from a doctor who retired), but we didn't hit it off quite. That being said, I felt confident that he was taking action in my best interest and was considering my situation which I appreciated! Hopefully we'll warm up a bit!

First visit with this provider and He was more than adequate

I am a new patient in this practice. I arrived with a list of questions and concerns which were all addressed. After my initial visit I feel confident that my doctor understands my health care needs and goals. I look forward to working with my new care provider and staff in the future.

Dr. Ifan Stukalau demonstrated exceptional attentiveness, expertise, and compassion during our first visit, making me feel truly heard and cared for. He is most professional and has a thorough approach.

First time with this new provider. He did an excellent job. Thorough and asked appropriate questions given our discussion. Used assessment protocols well given my health concerns and recent symptoms.

Very competent, attentive and investigated tests and results completely and found results that pointed to needed treatments not discover by others.
