I really the OBGYN/Urology clinic that I went to. It was at the Redwood City 420 Broadway siite which is closer to home. I was happy that they hold a clinic here on certain days.

Excellent establishment of confidence with him. He has an outstanding online personality. I look forward to meeting him in the future.
I found Dr. Solol very informative regarding my progression. I had expected more of my Botox treatment but he explained in detail that I was doing better then expected which gave me a positive feeling. A nurse first did the question and answer evaluation. Then the assistant physician interviewed me and then the combination of both Dr. Sokol and the assistant physician completed the interview process. They outlined their expectation and freely let me inquire as to my evaluations and questions . A future plan was outlined and this was a very positive experience.
The level of thoroughness Dr. Sokol provided was so comforting and enlightening! I finally feel hopeful and am no longer confused about my issues. He was very personable, so I was able to share everything I was and am experiencing and how I feel about it. He answered all of my questions. I hung up feeling very satisfied that a plan was in place!
Dr. Sokol was fantastic! Easy to talk to and extremely knowledgeable!
I have recommended Stanford ob-gyn to others in my East Bay area
My only complaint is that Dr. Sokol talks too fast - it was hard for me to fully understand what all he was saying - too much info said too fast. I felt as if he was in a hurry. He is very knowledgeable but talks too fast.
he is most caring, professional, and friendly
He made me feel comfortable in a very uncomfortable situation.
Excellent doctor. Extremely smart and very compassionate. A great listener.
Very friendly and easy to understand and talk to. Thank you!

Dr was most pleasant and congenial. I found talking about a sensitive issue to be easier with his accommodating demeaner. He provided a professional and confident environment that gave me the space to frankly discuss my issues without feeling embarrassed and I feel hopeful and confident about a positive solution or at least an attempt to achieve the best outcome.
Just the best.

His knowledge and quick response enabled me to avoid hospitalization and to be treated quickly. He is smart and also kind. Many thanks.
The best doctor visit I've ever had! Dr. Sokol listened and offered excellent appropriate options.
I wish he could of spent more time explaining step by step 7 steps to recovery of incontinence, I felt overwhelmed and cried after diagnosis.
Dr. Sokol's care is excellent. I rate him 'very good' on 10/10 criteria. I left the exam with his recommendation that I followup every 6 months. This is very reassuring because I know that my condition will be controlled. I consider Dr. Sokol and Laura (R.N.?) the best care-providing team for my condition.
Everyone worked in an excellent way, they assured me and were interested in my health problem.
Felt that Dr. Sokol took the time with me, as did Laura (nurse) and then met with my husband & daughter after examining me.
After having this third surgery for the same issue I am very optimistic that Dr. Sokol can finally resolve this issue.

How very fortunate for me...to find such an incredible resource, a doctor whose kindness, expertise, patience and warmth guided me through successful surgery and beyond. I was so fearful, but the care I received was a game changer. I will be grateful FOREVER.
Dr. Sokal is the best.
It felt rushed and I left not knowing more than when I arrived. I also felt that the provider wasn't understanding that my symptoms had gotten better but they were still negatively impacting my life. My first visit was excellent - he took the time for me and I left feeling very confident in him.
Dr. Sokol is fabulous. I would recommend him without hesitation.
I have recommended Dr. Sokol to several people. He is an outstanding surgeon, and a caring, compassionate doctor. Stamford is fortunate to have such a superb doctor.

Dr. Sokol was just an excellent physician! He was kind,concerned,smart, and willing to take the time needed to make serious decisions about surgery. His superior judgement in how to handle my case has made me so grateful!
I believe providers should have more time to be with their pts. Dr. Eric Sokol spent a lot of time with me. However I know there were other patients waiting so I missed asking about the follow-up care & meds. He did explain that I would be in the hospital for the night. I forgot to mention about previous surgeries & my reactions to them.
Dr. Sokol saw me at the end of his very busy day, yet he spent a long time with me and my husband.
Very professional doctors excellent care super good experience.

My opinion, Dr. Sokol is an excellent MD.
a very excellent doctor. He made me feel very relaxed and understanding of my problem. Excellent to all of the above questions. Probably the best doctor I have ever had and I have had many!
Dr. Sokol truly went above and beyond with my concerns and subsequent advice regarding treatment. He, like many other physicians at Stanford, is exactly why I fly from NM to CA for all of my medical needs. His professionalism and beside manner are extremely appreciated and his valuable time that he contributed to my concerns went above and beyond - something that is rare in the medical field today. Thank you so much, Dr. Sokol. You are a gem!

Dr. Sokol and his nurse Laura are both very competent and very compassionate.
