    Trying to communicate with this office is almost impossible....no one answers the phone and leaving a message is pointless

    It takes awhile to get to know him, but he's a good Dr. Their billing has improved over the years.

    I am a medical doctor with 50 years experience. I am prostate cancer survivor and have prostate…read moreenlargement. I have been under his supervision for over two years. He has tried to pressure me to perform a prostate biopsy because my PSA continued to rise. Prostate enlargement will elevate PSA. PSA does not reliably diagnose cancer. My annual Prostate MRIs never have shown any return of cancer. He never discussed starting me on medication to reduce the size of the prostate and to lower the PSA. Another Urologist immediately put me on finasteride and my PSA normalized. Nowadays doctors make much more money doing biopsies than office visits. That is the business of medicine. Two friends recently had prostate biopsies at the same clinic instead of a safe prostate MRI exam. Fortunately, neither biopsy showed cancer. However, one nearly died of sepsis from the biopsy and the other has MRSA prostatitis for the rest of his life. Both complications were completely avoidable.

    This is a good and amazingly well educated - check his bio - urologist if he will actually see you…read more More likely, he will push you off to a physician assistant (PA), whose education and experience pales to his, like he did to me - but same cost per visit to you with most insurance plans. Basically, every time I saw him, his attitude was, 'why are you wasting my time, you could see a PA for this'. Before I moved to Reno from a larger town, I saw multiple urologists for the same reasons I saw Dr. McCormack (kidney stones), and none of them dismissed me or urged me to see at PA instead of them. Also, in the years I saw Dr. McCormack, he never once performed a DRE. I received DREs from prior doctors at a younger age annually. And annually from my new urologist in Carson City. Check the standard of care, this may not meet it? PS - Urology Nevada is horrible and worse than Dr. McCormack, of which he is a part and presumably a decisionmaker and part of management / ownership, so he has to take responsibility for the poor service of everyone who works for or with him here. See my separate review on Yelp and see all the horrible Yelp & Google reviews written by other patients. Also, you have to fight with the front desk every time because they will auto-book you with a PA instead of with Dr. McCormack for your next appointment. YMMV if you have other issues deemed more serious than a history of kidney stones, which may possibly be what he prefers due to being more lucrative or other reasons?

    I've been a patient of urology Nevada for a couple of years, at Reno then Sparks, I was put on a…read moredrug to help my situation and for awhile it seemed to help, I've had bph for twenty years. I can honestly say as far as Urologist practice goes they're consistent with most. What I was looking for is cutting edge knowledge and ideas that help you to avoid unnecessary biopsies and surgery, but it seems my practitioner ( a PA) is trying to move me in that direction. My suggestion of a pca3 antigen, a pse or isopsa test were met with dismissal. My provider seemed shocked that I wasn't interested in a turp, having worked in healthcare myself for over 40 years the fact that turps are still being done is surprising to say the least . Apparently this practice is same old same old. I did like the Sparks location better which they're closing. The Kitzke location feels more impersonal, more like herding cattle. I was offered a feedback form to express this but it only directs you to a phone number that doesn't get answered. hmmmm......

    Terrible experience. I was referred here by my insurance, I guess I should have checked reviews. It…read moretook a month just to get an appointment. I arrived, did the normal paperwork, paid my deductible - all good up to this point. The nurse asked me some basic health questions, but none of the usual checks. Just how tall, my weight, that's it. I'm like, ok fine. Dr. Tam walks in, says hello. He has this totally disinterested look on his face. His assistant, a young lady, sits in the corner typing notes. Dr. Tam says, so what brings you here. Honestly it's a bit awkward talking about urinary issues with a young, female assistant in the room typing away as we talk, but again it's fine. He listens with this same uninterested look. I walk through symptoms and history, ask a few questions about medications. He's like yeah whatever you think might help. He's the Dr. here mind you. After about 5 to 10 min, he says we can take a urine test if you want. Clearly didn't seem to care one way or another. Then he gets up, shakes my hand and leaves. That's it. I ask the nurse if I'm supposed to leave a urine sample, she says yes, we do that and they walk me out. No follow up, no nothing. This visit cost $300 (my insurance is an HSA plan). Huge waste of time and money. Never again.

    It would be great if it was possible to separate the review for the overall practice and the…read moreindividual practitioners, but it's not, so I'll do my best to explain the experience at Urology Nevada. The front office side of the practice is pretty uneven - it's a large, busy place and it can feel like a factory. Patient portal messages and voicemails can get lost in the shuffle. You chant your birthdate and name so frequently you feel like you're in prison. However... the practice has some really excellent and caring practitioners who deliver outstanding healthcare. The two with whom I have experience are Dr. Goode and Dr. Zlatev, both of whom are terrific physicians and great people. Both are very engaged and caring people who understand the need to spend enough time with their patients to make them feel comfortable and well informed about their condition and the options for treatment. Despite being there for procedures that are uncomfortable - both emotionally and physically - Drs. Goode and Zlatev do their best to make you feel at ease, respected and in good hands. Their P.A.'s and staff members are equally thoughtful and kind. Their technical competence allows me to overlook the shortcomings of the front office operation.

Save yourself a lot of grief and find a different practice. I would give a ZERO if I could.
