Pacific Urology Doctors Win Patients' Choice Award for Third Consecutive Year

CONCORD, Calif., March 17, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Pacific Urology physicians Jeremy Lieb and Stephen Taylor of Contra Costa County are recipients of the latest "Patients' Choice Award" from the popular rate-your-doctor website Vitals.com.

"The honor is bestowed to physicians who have received near-perfect scores as voted by patients," the website says.

The annual award – based on more than 800,000 patient reviews nationwide – goes only to doctors who earn four-star ratings on the site, which amounts to fewer than six percent of doctors. Three Pacific Urology physicians have won the award over the last three years; in addition to Drs. Lieb and Taylor, Dr. Parminder Sethi has been a winner as well.

Every month, tens of thousands of patients across the United States provide online feedback on Vitals.com about doctors' quality of care, post-appointment follow-up, bedside manner, and office staff courtesy.

Taylor is a nationally renowned specialist in robotic surgery and vasectomy reversals, as well as an expert in prostate cancer, infertility and erectile dysfunction. He has one of the best vasectomy reversal success rates in the United States, and has published one of the first articles to describe the preservation of erections following prostate cancer surgery.

On Vitals.com, Pacific Urology Josephine Ward credits Dr. Taylor with saving her husband's life. "He is a dedicated doctor," she wrote. "We cannot sing enough praises."

Lieb – whose interests include pediatric urology, prostate enlargement, kidney stones and erectile dysfunction – scored a perfect four out of four in bedside manner.

Patient Toni Tischler credits Lieb with a reassuring personal touch, saying, "He was and is one of the most caring, sensitive doctors I have encountered."

Taylor is available for consultation at Pacific Urology's Concord, Rossmore Associates, and Walnut Creek locations. Lieb is available at the Concord, Antioch and Walnut Creek offices.
