  Great heart doctor. When you consult him you feel you are talking with a friend. Highly recommended..., Sep 25, 2011

I first met Dr. Assad-Kottner in August of 2011. As soon as he entered the room I noticed something different. He was smiling, and genuinely seemed interested. He sat down, spoke with me without interrupting me like other doctors do so usually. He reviewed all of my medications and instead of adding more or increasing dosages he had a talk with me. He motivated me enough in order for me to try again what they always tell me "exercise eat healthier." So far in 2 months I have lost 6 lbs and will continue to do so. When you consult him it does not feel you are with a doctor, it feels you are speaking with a true friend which in my opinion is key.

  Terrible Doctor, Unprofessional and Unintelligent ..., Apr 6, 2012

I had clavicle repair surgery with a plate and screws done by Dr. Gennaro. He averaged at least an hour behind schedule. The hospital staff was awful, they burst a vein every time an IV had to be put in. The x ray technicians messed up the angle of the x rays every single time. A month after surgery I developed pockets of fluid which formed blood blisters on the scar. Gennaro used a bone growth catalyst that had a reaction with my skin. This resulted in a hole in my skin that had to be surgically closed. The catalyst was not needed as I am a healthy, 18 year old who is active and fit. Two months after the initial surgery I broke my collarbone again, along with the plate. When he looked at my x ray his fist word was "Shit". He continued repeating this before saying "I've never seen this before, or read anything about it. So come back in two weeks and we'll see how it heals" I will never deal with him again. The plate is visibly displaced and very painful. If my collarbone heals like this the metal will grate against my skin every time I move as it has been doing. I have never had a worse medical experience
  Dr. Allan Kurtz is the best doctor in Woodland Hills, Ca...., Mar 24, 2012

Dr. Allan Kurtz is one of the nicest doctors in the Valley. He speaks to you in layman's terms. To put something in layman's terms is to describe a complex or technical issue using words and terms that the average individual (someone without professional training in the subject area) can understand, so that they may comprehend the issue to some degree. This helps me every time I go in for a check up, or for an illness. He has a great staff and nice facility. He has always been very helpful and will not steer you in the wrong direction.
  ARROGANT & TERRIBLE BEDSIDE MANNER ..., Mar 22, 2012

Hospital and hospital staff was amazing. UNFORTUENATELY, Dr. Mosbah Chehab was the assigned physician when I was hospitalized and he was incredibly arrogant and rude. He insulted my intelligence on several levels, without getting into details, and after I filed a formal complaint and requested a different doctor he refused to transfer my case and threatened to discharge me instead. After administration was involved his demeanor changed and he denied all allegations and threats he made (nurses did witness EVERYTHING) furthermore, he snuck back in my hospital room and stated that he could do whatever he wanted and discharge me (I was just admitted with pneumonia less than 4 hours before) and call security if he felt like it. I proceeded to tell him to leave the room and only speak to me with another staff member present, he then stormed off, go t another staff member and again changed his demeanor and stated that because I was upset he would transfer my case to another doctor. This was what I was asking for the entire time and what he was refusing to do. It took about 2-3 hours of requesting and involving management and administration to have the issue resolved.
  excellent doctor for all ages options, reasonable ..., Feb 21, 2012

my 14 yr old daughter ripped her ACL off and he empathized with her and always had her best interest at heart. because her growth plates werent closed yet, he waited to do surgery to replace this absent ligament. also giving her the option to strength train to allow a possibility of no surgery at all. I am very pleased with him as a doctor and a person.he is very reasonable prices for the time he takes with every patient answering all the questions you have and explaining
  Kenneth haft good lung doctor richmond virginia !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..., Dec 4, 2011

Dr. Haft is a busy but caring young man. His knowledge and caring is so refreshing at this time when doctors just want to spend 5 minutes with you. He makes you feel very comfortable and at ease despite the severity of Medical problems he deals with. My family doctor speaks very highly of him
