  Wonderful Doctor...Very much worth the 300 mile drive..., Sep 2, 2011

Dr Torchinski has been a blessing to my family since the beginning of the diabetic issues with my daughter. Not only are he and his staff knowledgeable but they actually care aswell. Language may be slightly challenged but this is definitely worth it considering his talent.

  I recommend Dr. Montalbano all the time. In fact he just did a very new procedure on my son (which ..., Mar 16, 2012

Prior to my total knee replacement, the pain level was constantly between a 7-10. I was walking with a cane because my knee was constantly hurting me. Going up and down stairs was almost impossible. I was being woken up during the night from the knee pain and therefore was not getting a restful night’s sleep. I tried to exercise as much as possible but it was difficult. I started to become somewhat of a hermit because when you can’t walk you really can’t do much. I was starting to have to take time off of work because of the pain. Activitites that I lived doing, (dancing, racquet ball, walking) I wasn’t able to do any longer. I have been using Dr. Montalbano for over 10 years. I first saw him at Bayley Seton Hospital when he was taking care of another patient in the pre-op area. I was so impressed with how he was treating that patient that when he left I asked the woman who he was. Later on when I needed an orthopedist I went to see him and have been using him ever since. As far as office staff goes – I have never had a problem. Always courteous, polite, very informative, helpful and respectful of your privacy. (Even though I scheduled surgeries and cancelled them I was always treated the same.) Dr. Montalbano and his staff are always up on the latest surgical techniques, surgical procedures and treatments. Waiting time is usually not too long. When I would call in with any questions, someone always got back to me in a very reasonal amount of time. After finally scheduling the surgery, that I actually went through with, Dr. Montalbano and Michelle Pokrassa (RPA) went over the surgical procedure and any questions I had they went over with me several times until I felt that I was comfortable with the knowledge. The surgery went so much better than expected. I was so frightened of being in the hospital over a weekend but I have to say that the weekend staff was better than the weekday staff. I was very impressed with the surgery
  Great Doctor, very personable and caring.Amazing work!..., Jan 6, 2012

Great experience. Great value. i would not go anywhere else for all my non surgical procedure! I had a blepharoplasty done and I do botox for the past 8 years. Im very happy with his work and service
  Dr. Wint cured my carpal tunnel and I am glad that I did it..., Dec 19, 2011

I was scared of having carpal tunnel surgery but Dr. WInt did an operation witha very tiny incision and it worked very well. I had a little pain for the day of the surgery but I did not take anything but some Motrin at night
  poor service, inaccurate information, disregard for patient values or input..., Dec 17, 2011

I am a white male in my 30s. I was operated on by Dr. McLemore for anal hpv. I do not recommend Dr. McLemore unless you are very desperate. I trusted her too much. She cut me up really bad and caused me unreasonable amounts of pain. She destroyed a lot of healthy tissue and I felt this was unnecessary. She never apologized or admitted that she made a mistake. She was unsympathetic and uncaring toward me when I was distraught and in pain. She was often impatient, cold, antagonistic and stubborn. She didn't seem to care about the pain or anxiety she caused me. She became antagonistic toward me and called me a risk to her practice because I felt I had had complications from the surgery. Some people love her, but I think if you have a bad experience, she will turn against you and become mean and uncaring.
  unresponsive, indifferent medical office with lack of urgency..., Nov 29, 2011

Staff is cold, indifferent, with no sense of urgency. I was extremely concerned about some test results but when I called every few days to ask if they were in, I was made to feel that I was bothering them and there was no attempt to give me an idea of when they would be in, or to expedite results more quickly. I waited a half four to see the doctor, she looked at her watch and made me feel rushed when I was in for the exam. Medical advice seemed reasonable but the lack of urgency or empathy made it a frustrating experience.
