I've been to Dr. Previte 3 different times. Once for my daughter's foot injury, and then again for…read moremy daughter and I, both with knee injuries. Every diagnosis was spot on and we've healed as he said we would. As for my injury, he was clear in explaining what it was from and how to avoid it in the future. (I had extreme fluid build up in my knee due to an injury, making it stiff and in a high amount of pain. This lasted a long time so I sought his help.). I have adjusted my exercise routine to what he recommended and have not had any issues since. Dr. Previte is kind, extremely thorough in explaining every detail and answering all of your questions. When visiting with him, he always makes you feel you can spend as much time as you need. His staff is very good as well, making me feel welcome and comfortable to see them and fitting me right in. I would highly recommend this office and Dr. Previte. As a matter of fact, I am calling him first thing in the morning to see if he can see my other daughter right away. She broke her humerus in soccer this weekend and we went to Scripps urgent care who was very good and thought she would need surgery, so they sent us to Children's Emergency Dept with the opinion that they would get the on call pediatric orthopedist to do surgery right then. Children's did the same routine of a new patient, having to take their own X-rays, and the ED doctor called the ped ortho on the phone who said no surgery and sent us home. So I got two different opinions from two respected organizations on the same day. My mind will finally be settled when I get Dr. Previte's opinion and I know from experience to trust the one I get from him.

He is one of the extremely rare 'good guys' in the medical profession. Not only is he an EXCELLENT…read moresurgeon, he is a genuinely good man that truly CARES about his patients! He was very highly recommended to me for shoulder surgery a couple of years ago & I was not only extremely pleased with the results, I couldn't have been happier with the way I was treated by his entire staff. When I injured my knee last year I wouldn't have even considered going anywhere else. Unlike any other physician I have ever met, he actually cares more about his patients than billable hours. He spends time thoroughly discussing the condition and makes sure the patient understands what to expect. GREAT DOCTOR, GREAT STAFF, GREAT PRACTICE!!!!!!

I cannot say enough positive things about Dr. Jeffrey Williams. He is truly an exceptional…read morecardiologist whose combination of clinical expertise, professionalism, compassion, and genuine dedication to his patients is remarkable. From my very first interaction with Dr. Williams, I was struck by how knowledgeable, thorough, and attentive he is. He takes the time to listen carefully, asks thoughtful questions, and never makes you feel rushed or dismissed. He explains complex cardiac issues in a way that is clear and understandable, while making sure you feel comfortable, informed, and involved in your care. As a doctorally prepared nurse practitioner and registered nurse with nearly three decades of experience in healthcare, I have had the privilege of working alongside and being cared for by many physicians. I have developed a deep appreciation for physicians who combine outstanding clinical knowledge with excellent judgment, humility, compassion, and respect for their patients. Dr. Williams truly stands out. What impressed me most is that despite his level of expertise, he remains incredibly approachable and genuinely present with his patients. He listens--not simply to respond, but to truly understand. His calm, reassuring manner inspires confidence, and his dedication to providing thoughtful, individualized care is evident in every interaction. Dr. Williams represents what exceptional cardiology should be: highly skilled, compassionate, thorough, and deeply committed to his patients. I feel fortunate to have received his care and would wholeheartedly and without hesitation recommend him to anyone seeking an outstanding cardiologist. Dr. Williams is an exceptional physician and a true asset to the medical community. Mariana D.

After using oral prednisone in high doses without success he went to trigger injections and started me on hydroxychloroquine which treats both rheumatological conditions. That was in 1995 before it was a drug in wide use in rheumatology. He was kind, considerate and got me to Dr. Stuart, an awesome pain management specialist. Best of all, he did not treat me like a disease first and a person second. I have had doctors treat me like that and it is dehumanizing.

I was a patient seen by Dr. Malinak from approximately 2011-2015 (I'm sort of guessing). At that…read moretime I received wonderful care and he also managed my pain reasonably and without any prescribing issues. I was also always well-advised when it came to using steroid injections for management of my RA . He followed protocol and they were performed perfectly. His super star moment was when he correctly diagnosed me with primary lower extremity lymphedema which words cannot express how wonderful it was to actually know why my legs were so swollen. I had to leave Dr. Malinak due to my insurance changing but I did so on a very happy note as one might say. So here we are in 2023 and my insurance has once again changed and I was able to select Dr. Malinak as my doctor again! I also live much closer to his office which is a plus after driving to La Jolla on numerous occasions from La Mesa. I cannot see him until after the new year but I hope that all of these changes mentioned really are not true because I never encountered any rudeness from front desk staff, etc. I'll update in 2024 after my first/returning visit.

My surgery was quite difficult and I'm not a very good (healthy) candidate for surgery. I felt completely safe under his hands. He works amazingly well with the hospitalist doctors in regard to your care, prior to surgery, during surgery and after. I didn't feel like I was being discharged too soon. He let my body and symptoms be the guiding light in my whole saga. I can't say enough about Dr Bortz and his impressive skills both in the operating room and bedside after surgery. If you need surgery, he's the surgeon to turn too. You couldn't be in better hands!!!

Best news of all came today when my significant other found out that his heart test results (Echocardiogram) went from 35% heart function to 60% in one year! Everybody just couldn't believe it. My significant other is a walking miracle with his heart failure. The doctor and the employees have never seen anything like it. This was the best news today and we all hugged and cried.
