Dr. Paul Earl Loethen, MD

Had hernia surgery. He was very skilled. He explained the procedure to me beforehand. Recovery was fast with minimal discomfort.

I've seen a LOT of doctors, and Dr. Loethen has the BEST disposition. He is also very skilled at stitches, most unnoticeable ones I've ever had! His personality and bedside manner are outstanding. He is caring, attentive, and he is thorough with his explanations. I like his front desk staff, too. I saw him at Lincoln Surgical in Shiloh, IL.

Dr. Loethen did an emergency colostomy on me which I am very grateful. He saved my life as far as I am concerned. He explained everything and made me feel completely at ease. I am planning on having it reversed in which I feel quite confident. He did however advise me to quit smoking if I want the surgery done. I have quit and already feel better. He has your best interest at heart. Recommend him highly!

I was very impressed with how my 1st visit went. Everyone was warm and friendly. My wait time eas minimal and all questions were answered.

I saw Dr. Loethen for a growth on face. He cut it off and took care of everything.

After several attempts , and many surgeries on my left foot, I had no choice but to have my lower leg amputated, Dr. Loethen was absolutely great , explained everything and answered any and every question that I had. One thing he said was he wanted me happy and healthy. And after 8 years that's what I am. Great surgeon!

One of the most compassionate and honest doctors I have encountered.

This man examined me and because I smoke told me to take a shower and when I come back not to have smoked. He is paid for a medical opinion not personal. Talk about a jerk. I'm having tests done but hope to find a different dr who can get me in. I guess the fact he's a jerk is why you can get in so easy. The stars I gave are not for him but the other staff.

Dr. Loethen did some light surgery on my hand, and it went pretty well, the final outcome did not even leave a scar.

My friend had hernia repair by Dr. Loethen, and was impressed by his knowledge and skill. Dr. Loethen explained things thoroughly, and had a friendly demeanor. I recommend him as a surgeon.

I liked this guy, he cut some cancer out, and he got it all. Surgery is not a pleasant experience, but having a good surgeon really helps.

I met him after a family member had surgery. He was very arrogant. I personally would not be his patient.

His name should be Dr Speedy Loethen... he whizzes in, talks very fast, gives diagnosis off the top of his bald head... what is your RUSH, Loethen?? he also discriminates against people who are under-insured or have NO insurance.. I don;t like his manner. he is NOT bright like Dr Paone.... i would NOT let this guy operate on me!!! also his nurse is UNFRIENDLY!!

Dr. Loethen was kind and professional at my time of treatment. His gentle personality and medical knowledge made it possible for me to get through a very difficult time.If you're looking for a good caring doctor I highly recommend him.
