This year I had him replace my right hip and again in 10 days I was walking without a cane. The home care therapists are excellent and I would highly recommend using Dr. Mulvihill to replace your hips. I am 73 years old and can now get around without any pain.

The scans showed the prosthesis was loose. Dr. Mulvihill discussed that he would have to open Knee up to see what's going on & fix the issue. I felt very confident that Dr. Mulvihill would be able to repair/ fix my Knee. Dr. Mulvihill is a highly skilled Orthopedic Surgeon who made me feel comfortable & confident that he could repair my damaged knee. He clearly explained what needed to be done to repair Failed Knee Replacement. I feel truly blessed to have received surgical care from a standout Orthopedic surgeon. He is compassionate, soft spoken, kind, caring & informative. The way he fixed my knee will always be remembered with gratitude. The commitment i received as your patient is nothing short of inspiring. My best compliments for your exceptional care for making a huge difference in my life. My activity level has excelled since Revision knee replacement. Im ecstatic. I'd also like to thank the staff & surgical team as well. They were great. I wouldn't think twice about choosing Dr. Mulvihill to do any further surgeries for me. He's the best in the business .

I was so lucky to find him. Because he uses robotics and computerized scans there is precision to his technique...and because of that precision, there is less intrusion, i.e. pain and swelling. He gave me my life back! I can't say enough about his care and quality. He supported me all the way. I always needed both knees replaced, so he of course did the other knee. I am on the road to full recovery. His support staff are also amazing. They work hard, often after hours to make sure you are called with all the up to date information for scheduling all that needs to be done before the operation....which can be quite cumbersome...they make it all easy. Thank you Dr. Smith

I never write reviews but feel like this is necessary! Be…read morecautious!!! I had L5 S1 fusion surgery and after 10 months of complaining I insisted on another MRI. He told me I only needed some bone shaved away from my cage. Then two days later I saw he did not put anything in my chart notes, except "reviewed MRI, no findings, referred to pain management." I obviously saw a red flag so I saw a spine surgeon at Stanford and a neurosurgeon at UCSF, both told me the same thing. The cage he placed in me was not centered, it was off to the left and oversized!! Therefore it had been sitting on my nerve since I woke up in recovery and began complaining of nerve pain, which was not there prior to surgery. I had revision surgery and the surgeon had to shave the cage away from my nerve to half the size. Now I am currently working through recovery hoping my nerve will recover after the cage was compressing on it for over a year. Just sharing my story.... There are so many surgeons out there to choose from, get 2nd and 3rd opinions.

Over 40 mins late to both of my appointments, which wouldn't have been…read moresuch a problem if I couldn't hear ( and see) him talking to a coworker in his office across the hall about his weekend for 20 mins while I sat there waiting. Then seemed rushed during my appointment time, very condescending, kept talking over me, couldn't seem to answer any of my questions directly or clearly, seemed annoyed I even had questions and wouldn't just schedule surgery with him. The final straw was when he, without appropriate warning, bent my broken hand so hard I felt bones shift and started to pass out. When I told him it hurt too much his response was " well yeah it's broken it's going to hurt". When I said I was about to faint and asked for water he very dismissively said "yeah we can get you some" but then kept talking. Didn't get up from his chair, show any signs of concern, or even ask someone else to get water. As I continued to black out I leaned forward and put my head in my hand he coldly said "well don't do that, if you pass out you'll hit your head on my desk" and then walked out of the room leaving me completely ALONE to fully lose consciousness. When I came to there was still nobody in the exam room and I waited another 5-10 mins before his PA came by with water. Quite a while later, Mintalucci walked by the room and from the doorway (didn't even bother walking in) said "yeah that's just from the pain, it's called vasovagal but you'll be fine" and then walked away. I sat alone in that room for another 15 mins with zero check ins from anyone until I eventually felt I could walk and saw myself out. I have a great respect for healthcare providers and know that it's a hard job. But this was an appalling experience beyond words and I left the office feeling like I had been assaulted. I hope I caught him on a bad day and other patients have better experiences, but this all screams chronic burnout and toxic entitlement to me. Needless to say I found another provider and had an excellent surgery experience elsewhere.

I did not have to wait very long for appointments and Dr. Howe and his staff are first rate. He did a slow anaesthesia bulb that stayed with me for 5 days (sorry I don't remember the name). Other people that I have talked to did not get something similar. I think it made all of the difference in terms of pain and recovery. When it is time for my other knee (I am putting it off as long as I can still play pickleball) I won't hesitate to go back to Dr. Howe.

I got a referral to see Dr. Eric Schmidt. He looked at my images. Then he took some of his own. He said I did not have a torn rotator cuff. He said it was a shoulder impingement and the radiologist was wrong. Turns out Dr. Schmidt was right. He was patient in explaining things including drawing a picture of what was going on with my shoulder. He gave me 3 options and recommended the 2nd one. I took his advice. He injected an anti-inflammatory into my shoulder and prescribed some additional anti-inflammatory pills along with physical therapy. My shoulder today is like new.
