Within last 5 days I've sent 2 texts & 1 online form with zero response. I had a billing issue recently and I was unable to speak with their billing department. Dr. Bean recommended surgery and I wanted consultation but I shouldn't have to beg for appointment. Their patient portal has never worked for me and when I've asked for help they give same useless response. I was referred to Dr. Rife at Eisenhower Desert Orthopedic, appointment in 2 days.

It's not just me I have seen the way they treat other patients. Save yourself the stress and indignation and go somewhere else.

Unlike my regular doctor who has become too busy, and the front desk which is not well run, Dr. Phillips was found to be personable, listened with patience and far better explained the pain issues. He recommended a different type of orthotic (OTC) versus the $500 custom and uncomfortable orthotic made by previous doctor. Dr. Phillips was chosen because of his high Yelp reviews and this is one more to add to his well deserved reputation.

I am used to being seen quickly and getting an appointment with a doctor in a reasonable amount of time. I understand it is different here. I have used their emergency room once and was severely misdiagnosed. It turns out I actually had to have back surgery when they kept telling me I was basically making a big deal out of "nothing "and i'm sure they thought I was seeking pain meds. Imagine my surprise when I went to a doctor in the Los Angeles area and he told me what idiots they were in the emergency room. I was scheduled for back surgery right away. As you can see, I still haven't gotten over it lol .So never go to their emergency room. That being said ,the orthopedic center is completely different. I had no problem getting an appointment after my PMD sent a request for an orthopedic to see my knee. I was seen on time and everything was very professional. Dr.Diltz was great. I felt like a fool coming in for what I thought wasn't a big deal, but it turns out it could be. He never talked down to me, never made me feel like I didn't know what I was talking about like some doctors do. I have a follow up with him to review my MRI and I am looking forward to it. It's nice to have a Doctor Who listens to you and has some compassion. The only reason I dropped a star was NOT for the doctor. It was just the wait time. I had to wait about a month and a half to get an appointment with the doctor. I'm definitely not used to that, but like I said it's different here in the desert. I highly recommend Dr.Diltz. Also, their MRI staff in their orthopedic center is fabulous. So professional! saw me on time. They were great. Absolutely recommend

I can't stress enough how much I appreciate Dr. Wehrli's expertise. He has answered my many, many questions, taken time to listen to any concerns and has provided me with excellent care. He really explains things too! I got all the pros and cons of surgery and I never felt rushed or pushed to make a decision about the different care options. I waited until last month to have the surgery but he first looked at my foot a couple of years ago and I wore orthotics that relived my pain until my bunion just got to a point that it needed to be removed. I had surgery mid-morning and Dr. Wehrli called me that night personally to see how I was feeling and to see if I had any questions at all. Great customer service! There have been staff changes in their office in the last 12 months and I think the team that they have now is outstanding. They helped me figure out my insurance have been great about answering questions and refilling my prescriptions as needed. The office is busy but I have never felt rushed by the staff or Dr. Wehrli. The surgery center at Eisenhower was outstanding too! The nursing staff was helpful, funny and very caring! They made sure that I was recovered enough to be released and they called me the next day to follow up - asking if I had and questions. I completely trust Dr. Wehrli and if my kids, a family member of anyone I care about needed foot care I wouldn't hesitate to suggest they make an appointment with Dr. Wehrli.

On November 10 , 2025, I had an appointment with Dr. Ben Wehrli. I had seen him several times…read morebefore then. When I had last seen him, he said if I had future needs for my feet, to come see him. When I arrived at the office and said I had an appointment with him, the desk person said, in an abrupt manner, "he's not in!" When explaining that I had an appointment with him she became very nasty and actually abusive: " I told you he was not in!" I had made my appointment specifically with Dr, Wehrli quite a bit earlier than November 10. I was assigned to a younger less experienced doctor. He seems very nice but certainly not as experienced as Dr Wehrli. X-rays were done of my foot. I never received a report from a radiologist. I never received any copy of the X-rays. I never received a podiatrist evaluation of the X-rays. I never received a diagnosis of my foot condition, I never received a recommendation for treatment of my condition. Nothing in writing post exam. On my way out, he merely said something like, "seems good." I have tried many, many times to reach someone who could help me. I almost never got past the front desk. I left message after message at the front desk for both Rosie the office manager and the young doctor who treated me. I spoke with Rosie briefly twice. Each time she said she would send me my documents and have the young doctor contact me. I never received any documents. He finally called me called and left a message six days ago. He did not leave a direct number. Just the front desk number again. I called him back but he has not called me. The attitude in this office is one of total uncooperativeness, rude and insulting behaviour, and nothing like what I expect from a physician abiding by the Hippocratic Oath of professionalism. I always found Dr Wehrli to be competent and with a nice bedside manner. My happiness with this office ends there. His running of the office is shocking to me. I now find that probably the only way I will be able to obtain my documents is to file a complaint under the federal HIPAA Act, which will take time and effort just to obtain my medical records currently in their possession which they refuse to provide to me. Why the culture of this office has declined so much is unknown to me. I will move on to find another podiatrist and start all over with my foot problems. They will need my past podiatry records.
