The office staff was friendly, professional, and on time. I was taken back to the exam room…read morepromptly, and that part of the experience was excellent. Unfortunately, my experience with Dr. Kessler was very different. After walking into the exam room, the first words out of his mouth were, "What do you want to do?" I was honestly surprised by that approach. My previous orthopedic physician had already sent over my records, and I spent a few minutes explaining my six-year history of successful knee injections and that I was not interested in knee replacement surgery. When I asked if he performed injections using ultrasound guidance, he told me he had done thousands of injections and didn't need ultrasound. I explained that I had experienced significant pain with injections done without ultrasound in the past and strongly preferred image guidance. He dismissed that concern. What disappointed me most was learning that, although my insurance covers the injection and I had confirmed that before scheduling my appointment, Dr. Kessler told me the practice loses money on those injections. If I wanted the injection performed by him, I would have to pay an additional $750 out of pocket, and it still would not be done with ultrasound guidance. I read many positive reviews before making this appointment, so perhaps other patients have had different experiences. I can't honestly comment on Dr. Kessler's surgical skills because I never reached that point. I can only comment on my own visit. I left feeling that my concerns and preferences were not taken seriously, and I did not feel comfortable continuing my care with him. Because of that, I will not be returning.

It's been a long time since I went to an ER other than Kaiser…read more Checking into Mount Sinai was very smooth. I handed over my ID and Kaiser card and gave my information and they were able to easily bill my insurance so I didn't have to handle it after the fact. After some wait my vitals were checked, then I was sent back to the lobby and after a bit more of a wait, I was moved into a shared room. In total my visit was about three hours and I was able to speak to the doctor who ordered my medication to the closest pharmacy and had a first dose ready for me prior to my leaving. When I let them know I hadn't eaten recently they also provided a sandwich and crackers to take with the medication. I was texted semi-regularly with the name of my nurse, my doctor, my room, and when I was discharged - all things Kaiser doesn't do that I appreciated. My visit fee was the same as it is with Kaiser and because they supplied the first dose I was able to head home and go to sleep, picking up my medication the next day. All in all, I appreciated how Mount Sinai made the experience smooth for me and it's nice knowing I have an ER I can go to when I'm in the area.

If I were Brandy, who runs his office Alone, and excellentes I might add, I would have left there years ago. He treats her the same. No respect! What you see in front of you is a true narcissisme! I know this because I was his patiente for 10 years! Never out of pain but the conversation was sometimes interesting. They say what goes around comes around! He used to be an anesthésie. Seems he choose the easier part of his "degree". He is the only "doctor" I know who you can get an appointment with any time. Please don't be fooled by his "what you want to here". You too could loose 10 years of your life being in severe pain because he will never raise your prescription. He triés to tell you it's all in your head. If you relax you will feel better. It's all bull!!! He should go back to the country he is from and throw his bull around there! There are no words to truly express what a mistake it will be if you trust this man

I moved to Deerfield and was looking for…read morea new doctor to continue my prescriptions with since the website listed that as a service, but as soon as I walked in there they treated me like I was just shopping for pills and I should be ashamed for even trying! They did not look at my charts, just saw my paperwork I filled out up front which had me circle pain related questions, but looked right at me and said "We not giving you those meds"! Not "Sorry here is a alternative", or this doctor can help you in other ways, just a NO! Just wanted to leave a review here so if you move to the area and are looking to continue your pain management, then don't bother! The woman that work there are sharks! Anyways, not going to say where I ended up, but he is a well respected neurosurgeon and I have surgery scheduled in June for artificial C6 replacement with C4 instabilities! Now why would I be taking the same moderate dose of meds for the last 10 years from a major accident and be scheduled for my second surgery from it if I was just pill shopping?! Some of us aren't as fortunate as the rest and other pill head jerks have ruined it for the rest of us who can't exactly control the quality of life while we're in more pain then a dang Tylenol! My road to recovery has been long and I can't stand opiates dictating my life. After all I have been taking them for ten years now and I'm praying surgery will help me with having a semi normal life again, fingers crossed, maybe I can be as good as the doctors there are some day and just take Tylenol?! My plan is to start on methadone two weeks after surgery because it is said to have a quick recovery time. Ya see, someone who has been on opiates for ten years cannot just quit! I get it that they aren't very good doctors so how would the know, but there are other options that they refused to address or they are too scared to face the grueling and ugly DA's office who do challenge them. It's pretty easy to throw my charts at anyone who challenged me in the last ten years and I'm not ashamed over what I can't control. Quality of life only exists from the help of my doctors and some of them don't follow the masses , some still do their job! Anyways, hope this helps someone who may be like me. If you are a pill shopper looking at this to find a free pill stand, just hooked on opiates to fill that void, then still go to a real doctor and better your life! There are ways to get off them properly that isn't extremely painful! I know because I did it a few years back! Even though I escaped the dope sickness, the pain was still there to ruin my life! So after three months I went back on them unfortunately. Anyways, still to this day I continue with a medication called Bupropion, it is a miracle drug,,, it makes you want to quit EVERYTHING! Lol for the first time in my life, after 28 years of smoking, I quit! I'm even at 10 months without a single alcohol beverage! I feel amazing, cut back my meds considerably and that used to be hard for me! Anxiety and that "I need a drink to help with the pain" is gone! GOOD DOCTORS helped me get here, don't waste your time here, your better off buying aspirin then this place! Also, just to mention that I have moved because of work to six different states and 11 different towns since my motorcycle wreck and I have been to many different doctors as a result! Never in my life would I write this long of a bad review on any of them! Just so you are aware that I know how a doctors office SHOULD treat you! Good day, Xpatient
