    I mixed him up with a local chiropractor, and I have not been seen by Dr. Bernstein. I apologize.

    Dr. Clark is in my opinion everything a Family Doctor should be. He is considerate, intelligent, up…read moreto date on new med info, very willing to listen and share info on whatever ailment or problem I have had. He very quickly diagnosed me with a very aggressive cancer and got me going into treatment and to the right Oncology team ASAP! He is our family doctor, and I hope he will be for the forseeable future. He really is a funny, kind man with a boatload of medical knowledge. He explains things to me, and shows me in books, and printouts all the info I could possibly want to know about my various ailments. He CARES! Maybe that is the main difference. His Caring!

Then dr Clark can only treat one subject at time and has very little time 15 minutes max . Each consultation feel like you being told how to behave during the consultation and reminded what consultation should be about . Is a physician first role to listen ? . I have dread over the years talking to him and having to go the office . He might be smart I think but his bed manners are pretty bad .Sutter has become worse as time goes and allow very little time . I am thinking about changing system because all the physician I see are always rushed , late and I see the quality going down . Sutter system is all about money and time . I have felt dehumanized over the years . Some great physician have left Sutter for this reason over the years ....

    I called to Salvatore Fratianna's clinic, and the clinic approved that he accepts new patients, so…read moreI scheduled an appointment with him. I had to wait for the appointment for MORE THAN A MONTH because I was a new patient. Obviously, I had no choice but to wait, while during the ridiculous waiting time, my medical issues become more severe, which required medical attention. After waiting for weeks, finally, I had my appointment with him, and I explain my urgent medical issues, and his immediate unexplained response was: "you can go to another doctor if you want". I needed medical assistance, but he tried to "get away" from helping, for some unexplained reason. He continued with his sketchy behavior by saying that: "right now, I don't accept any new patients". I also asked for a note for medical leave, but he responded by: "I don't do that". Due to his suspicious behavior, I got the feeling that Salvatore doesn't say the whole truth, and it seems he's trying to hide something. The fact that he agreed to see me, and once he saw me, he almost immediately changed his version to "I don't accept any new patients", is suspicious. To conclude, Salvatore is playing with people's health, and have no problem to accept patients to meet with him, and then just decide that he doesn't want to treat urgent medical problems after they have waited for OVER A MONTH to see him, and just send them away, knowing it will take a very long time for them to get medical attention with a different doctor. After investigating his background even deeper by reading more reviews about him, his inconsistent behavior seems to be a pattern. Salvatore seems to be untrustworthy. I'm not sure how Aetna allow themselves to continue to work with him. It's probably better for everyone to find a good doctor.

    My experience with Dr. Frattiani in the four or five visits that I have had are that he runs a…read morelittle behind because he spends as much time as his patients need for their issues instead of rushing them in and out. He is especially good with bio-identical hormones both for men and women. He is one of the few doctors in this area that will do the Wiley Protocol (same hormonal template as you had when you were young--the one that Suzanne Sommers does) and he knows T.S. Wiley personally. He will also do the HCG Diet. Both of these are extremely effective, but also controversial, so he will do them if you ask for them. I like the fact that he is open minded, keeps up on all of the cutting edge therapies and is holistic instead of being of the drug oriented "standard of practice" mind that most doctors are.

    If your in pain find someone else besides Dr. Linda Wolbers to treat you. If you want to be labeled…read moreas a drug seeker or want a doctor that treats you like a child who is incapable of making decisions about their own healthcare. She refused to work with my other doctors including one from the best hospital in the country (Cleveland Clinic) and that was just one. There were several others. She did not want me making my own decisions. Last Seotember I sat bawling my eyes begging her to help me because I was in so much pain and I knew I was sick. She couldn't get it through her stupid head I DID NOT want more or an increase in pills. I wanted her DAMN help! Three days later I went to the ER I had a blood infection that could have killed me and spent 9 days in the hospital. If I could sue her for malpractice I would. This woman has no compassion. I weaned myself off one of my narcotics and no longer take it.thats how much a drug seeker I was. My GP said fire her!! Before she hurts you further!!! Stay far far away from this clinic before you get labeled so etching your not!

    I don't know why there are poor reviews for this clinic. It's closed now but when I went there…read moreafter having bilateral hip surgeries i found my doctor very compassionate and that she actually listened to what I had to say, which is a first for any pain management doctor that Ive seen. My only complaint would be that it was exceptionally expensive but were always willing to work with me and ALWAYS made sure i didn't run out of medication. I just thought I'd write my experience since the only ones on here are by people who clearly got rubbed the wrong way by this clinic, which obviously wasn't my experience. going back for a second set of hip surgeries soon and wish I could go back here afterwards. cheers, y'all.
