He and his assistant are relatable and show commitment to doing what they can to get their patients back on track. I would recommend them.

I am my own wellness advocate, and when I ask questions, I expect professional answers from a surgeon. Insurance companies are reluctant to pay for services -- in this case, I don't blame them. He answered my questions incompletely and with condescension; I doubt he ever looked at my chart. I made an appointment for a follow-up in 6 weeks; I'll be cancelling. The waiting room was a mass of people; like cattle being taken to slaughter. I waited 45 minutes to see someone. Most of the staff was kind and gave great explanations. However, the last guy was a waste of space; my short-term parking placard form was incomplete and incorrect, so I have to return to the DMV to resubmit corrected forms, which I'll be getting from my own physical therapist (take a referral from them? No, thanks.) Trying to reach a human was impossible by phone. Worst. Medical. Service. Ever. Full stop.

I have a high deductible health insurance plan so when figuring out an mri that was affordable to me she treated me like a second class citizen. The office is extremely outdated and dark. The doctors assistant is a younger woman who didn't act professional. As a 29 year old female that's saying a lot. When someone goes to the doctor and they're paying a lot of money they just want to be heard and get help. This place was just an overall bad experience and it made me upset and sad. Would not recommend UPDATE: the doctor called me and reassured me I needed surgery and tried to schedule me. I got a second opinion and the newer doctor asked me "what was she thinking?!" PT and immobilization before even thinking about surgery that most ligament injuries heal. She's just in it for the money. Stay away!!!! I suggest boulder ankle and foot clinic

IT'S A MIRACLE!!!!!!…read more I've been dealing with pain in my left knee for 30 years. It started when I was marathon training in 1988, and my knee hasn't been right since. I've been to an acupuncturist, a chiropractor, and a few other osteopathic doctors. The only thing that provided any relief were a series of steroid shots into my knee. These provided relief for an increasingly shorter period of time. The last time I had them my pain relief lasted about 3 months. For the entire 30 years of my medical treatment providers have been telling me that I have osteoarthritis, and that's what they've been treating. I visited this clinic several months ago, and they did x-rays which indicated that my problem is not osteoarthritis. The only problem is that my leg muscles are too tight! Joanne Halbrecht, the doc, manipulated my legs and determined that that's the only problem I have. She recommended I see a physical therapist, so I went to Katie Gaven at Boulder Higher Health. Katie recommended a series of stretches which I do every other day. These stretches reduced my pain by about 80%. I returned to Joanne with this report of 80% improvement. She recommended a daily regimen of glucosamine pills (a mixture of glucosamine, turmeric, etc). Since taking these my knee pain is almost non-existant. After thirty years of pain! THIS IS TRULY A MIRACLE. Bonus points: (1) The clinic sent me treatment summaries after each of my two visits. I've never had a doc do that before. I now have a record of what transpired in case I need it for whatever reason. (2) Joanne is a No-BS doc. When I asked her why my right knee, with equally tight leg muscles around it, didn't hurt, she said, "I don't know." How refreshing is that! (3) They have Sports Illustrated and free energy bars in the waiting area. (4) They send patients a satisfaction survey after the first visit. (5) Emily, who does the x-rays and information taking, is friendly, efficient, and competent. I've never been more satisfied with a medical professional than I am with Joanne and her staff. I give them my absolutely HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION!

No matter what time you call, the phone system will take 90 seconds to tell you that they have high call volume and suggest you use OCR MyChart or send them an email. If you decide to wait for an operator, that's another 3.5 minutes, at which point, even if you gave them the name of the person THE FACILITY told you to call, they'll direct your call: a) back to the number you called, to start all over again b) to scheduling c) "another number" for the business office that leaves you hanging for another 10 minutes before forcing you to leave a message And we probably have a simple question. I shudder to think what it's like for patients with a complicated question that requires a complicated answer, trying to get it asked and answered over a series of emails. To the doctors (or private equity people?) running the practice: chronic high call volume isn't an excuse to erect barriers to care, it's a sign that staff is likely overburdened and needs more people.

I called several places and every business was booked out for weeks.

He get a steroid shot, which I thought would be extremely painful based on my first experience. He actually managed to give me the shot and the pain was next to nothing... amazing. It's been 24 hours and the shot and anti-inflammatory has reduce my pain quite a bit and I can walk again at least. Thank you so much Foot & Ankle Care. You guys are awesome!

You should've refunded the entire cost of my surgery and offered to redo his work. If you care about your feet, I would suggest you stay far away from this doctor.

I'm sharing my experience in the hope it helps others make informed decisions…read more I initially had a positive experience at Boulder Regenerative Orthopedics. The first physician I worked with, Dr. Cummings, recommended starting conservatively with PRP and shockwave therapy. That treatment appeared to be effective--particularly in reducing tightness and scar tissue in my IT band. After that physician left the practice, my care transitioned to the primary doctor/owner, Dr. Mazzola. At that point, I was strongly encouraged to pursue stem cell therapy, which was presented as highly effective--particularly for healing tears and restoring function. Based on those discussions, I moved forward with the procedure, with the understanding that it could significantly improve my condition. Unfortunately, my experience did not match those expectations. One year later, after stem cell therapy, following the post-treatment protocol, daily PT, and deep tissue massage, follow-up imaging has shown no improvement, and in some respects, my condition appears to have worsened. In addition, the treatment was very costly and not covered by insurance, making the lack of results especially difficult. I want to be clear that regenerative medicine is a developing field, and outcomes may vary. However, I believe it's important for patients to have a balanced understanding of the limitations, uncertainty, and variability of stem cell treatments, particularly given the financial investment involved. If you are considering this route, I would strongly encourage: Seeking multiple medical opinions Asking for evidence specific to your condition Carefully weighing expected outcomes against cost There may be value in some of the more conservative therapies offered, based on my earlier experience. But I would urge caution and thorough due diligence before proceeding with more advanced and expensive interventions.

Dr. Mazzola is incredible. He's the guy to see for any orthopedic injury. He's a miracle worker.read more
