Great surgeon for laparoscopic surgery for gallbladder..., May 25, 2012 Dr. McDearmont did a terrific job and his staff was friendly as well. I would highly recommend him for anyone needing laparoscopic gallbladder surgery. The recovery was seamless and I was back to work in three days! |

HORRIBLE courtesy from the RUDEST receptionist I have ever encountered...., Mar 1, 2012 A receptionist has never treated me so rude. Since Dr. Zlobl’s office doesn’t take later afternoon appointments, and I don't get out of work until 4 p.m., I had to put in for sick time in order to leave work early. I also had to secure coverage for my classroom because I am a teacher. Since the person covering for my class ran 5 minutes late, I arrived 7 minutes late to my appointment. The receptionist was extremely rude in telling me we would probably have to re-schedule due to Dr. Zlobl's schedule, and said she called me yesterday and left me a "five minute" message explaining how important it was to be on time. I received NO such message, and when I plainly explained this, the receptionist became snooty and said, "Well, I’m not making it up." Then I realized I HAD received a call yesterday from a number I did not know. This caller did not leave a message. I pulled out my cell phone and asked what the office’s phone number was. She replied that they have 6 different lines. So I told her I would read her the number and asked if she could identify it, and she said, "I don't care." I couldn't believe it!! She didn’t care?!?! When you work with people, it’s imperative that you are empathetic, and Dr. Zlobl’s office proved that they are anything but empathetic. In the business that my husband co-owns, this type of customer service would cause you to lose your job. Needless to say, I left and did not re-schedule an appointment. |

Fair doctor good bedside manor but not so sure about his skill level...., Feb 29, 2012 Upon arriving as a new patient I knew that there was going to be lots of paperwork as a new patient. I waited for over an hour after my appointment time just to be told that he was running behind. After my meeting with the Dr, I was very impressed with his professionalism, but not sure that he is the Dr. that I am looking for to treat my problems. I feel that he rushed the appointment after waiting a long time for him. |

Excellent Doctor, nice staff and now pain free!!!!!..., Feb 20, 2012 I have been suffering with arthritis and joint pain since l966, when I had a childhood accident and dislocated my hip. After two years of doctors "practicing medicine" and finally taking a simple xray which showed the dislocation, I had my hip joint hastily put back in place with pins. Long story short.....I lost two inches of growth in my right leg during the time of dislocation and had developed scoliosis and other fun joint diseases. Fast forward thirty five years....and years of deterioration, bad limp, pain and arthritic joint disease....I learned of Dr. Greg Montalbano and decided to finally have my hip replaced. It was by far the best decision I have ever made. Dr. Greg calmed my fears, answered all my questions, and after surgery, not only was I pain free....but as an added bonus...my legs were even and I no longer had a limp. It was like winning the lottery. Dr. Montalbano is a caring, wonderful surgeon who has hands of gold. If you are reading this and are contemplating having hip replacement....I would advise you to run (wishful thinking)...not walk and have this truly life changing experience.....To be painfree...ying and yang...is only something shared by other joint disease patients who understand the agony of bone on bone torture. Last year I needed my left hip replaced, and I again enlisted Dr. Montalbano's help. He has always been there to help whenever I called or had a question or concern, and his service and staff are the best I have ever encountered. He is like family now and has given me my life back. I am grateful to Dr. Greg for his kindness, professionalism and skills....and sing his praises wherever I go. Sincerely, Elaine B. |

My family Refuses To See Her Again. Very Disagreeable!..., Jan 5, 2012 My family will not be seeing Dr. Shah again. If we had not researched her credentials after the fact, we would have sworn she was not even a doctor. She argued with us over refills for medicines that we take for diabetes and thyroid disease though we have taken these medicines to treat these illnesses for several years. She was very disagreeable about everything. It was so hard to deal with her that one of us just agreed with her about everything to keep from having arguments again so as to be able to leave her office promptly because the entire visit had been such an ordeal. We do not recommend her. |
