Custom wood doors - Advice please!

I am about 3/4 through a full gut reno of an 1894 brownstone and we need to order doors — starting to see the finish line. The house originally had solid oak, 5-panel doors, which we sold to salvage (kind of regretting that, but they were in pretty bad shape and that’s water under the bridge). I am now trying to purchase stain grade 2 panel oak doors for the house and was hoping to get recommendations for companies that can provide a high quality door. If you have purchased similar doors, what company did you use? What is the range per door that I should expect to spend? And, any views on solid wood vs. MDF/stave core are very much appreciated. Thanks

TruStile Doors can make any style door in any wood species you want. Price will depend on sizing, sticking details etc. There are some other companies out there that can also do this. Your GC or architect should know where to source these doors. http://brownstoner.staging.wpengine.com/curated
