  does not listen to you. you will be better off going somewhere else...., Jan 20, 2012

Reception is extremely mean and act like its the end of the world if you ask them to do anything. The dr. doesnt listen to you when you tell him anything. He puts his head down and seems like he is somewhere else but in the rooaskm with you. I wouldn't recommend them to anyone. Doesnt take the time to listen to your ailements, reception is extremely mean and seems like they do not want to be there, or help you at all. I would rather be in pain, then deal with reception. Go somewhere else. You will be better off somewhere else
  I absoulutely would use Dr. Montalbano again and would refer him to family and friends..., Dec 19, 2011

When I started coming to Regional Orthopedics I was in a lot of pain and experienced limited to no activity. When I was brought to the emergency room Dr. Montalbano was the one who performed surgery on my right ankle. The healing process took longer than I would have liked but was no fault of the doctor. The pain has decreased but still some pain is present. I absoulutely would use Dr. Montalbano again and would refer him to family and friends.
  Dr Brening, Great and informative Dr. for Colposcopy and Pap Smears..., Dec 3, 2011

Dr. Brening is really nice, gentle, and I could tell he really cared about me as an individual. So hard to find Dr.'s that really care about their patients & will go the extra mile for them these days. This is my first time having a male Dr. and he made me feel totally comfortable during my exams. He calls me if he ever has questions regarding my medical history & took the time to get to know me and my problem, and is working on the best solution for ME. Great Doctor for SDSU students!
  Awful Dr, No Bedside Manner, no compassion, RUDE!!!..., Nov 15, 2011

Ive been Diabetic for 25yrs.I got ketones w/a reading of 849.Tried to get an emergency appt.He couldnt see me for 2wks!I ended up in a hosp.When he came to see me he treated me like a kid, didnt listen to me or my ?s.I thought it was insulin resistance W/o checking my meds or pump he said NO.I asked if it was allergies like a fever/cold causing insulin to not work properly, he said hed NEVER heard of that & told me to stop trying to come up w/ excuses.He asked why I hadnt come back to him sooner & it was b/c HE wanted me to go to other Drs before returning & it took time to do so.He asked how I had tried to get the B.S down & told me that once the B.S got 400+ that I shouldve taken a syringe, pulled up EXTRA insulin & injected it.I said a past Dr told me to do that but only w/a sliding scale & w/ Regular insulin not Novolog, that Id overdose.He showed NO BEDSIDE MANNER.I was in TEARS.THEN he sent a certified letter 2 days later dismissing me from his care w/o a reason!DO NOT GO TO HIM!
  Disappointed with Dr. Brian S. Edkin's abandonment of care after so many mistakes..., Sep 23, 2011

Dr. Edkin performed 2 hip implants on my wife using the DePuy ASR implants. He did such a poor job on both that my wife never recovered from crippling pain, then he informed her that both of her implants had been recalled due to a high failure rate and poisoning from chromium and cobalt. He offered no apology, no remedy, and no advice. As soon as he felt she became a liability to his practice he basically dropped her. It took him 8 months after informing her of the implant recall and that she could be in danger of chromium and cobalt poisoning, to do a blood test for it and he found her metal levels were elevated. She has had these implants in her body for over 2 years. Aside from a test for infection he ran because of her constant crippling pain he basically told her “just give it time”. He never did the appropriate testing to discover her true condition. So we had to find another specialist and we did. They immediately ordered MRI, Bone Scan and Hip aspirations to determine her true condition, after which they replaced both implants correcting Dr. Edkin’s work. They found and removed significant damage of her soft tissue from chromium and cobalt ions. If we had continued to trust Dr. Edkin that damage would have only been getting worse, and who knows how long he would have let it go?
