Report
I went to the orthopedic doctor, in Lafayette facility. I wasn't sure if I need surgery after an ski accident not very serious, but my knee was hurting, and I couldn't ski for the rest of the season. I didn't like the orthopedic doctor that saw me, I didn't feel the doctor care about my knee issue, she even did not touched my knee to check me. The assistant never called me back when I requested a second appointment to read my MRI, and I was worry maybe I needed surgery. In that moment I changed doctors, for another recommendation in Denver. Also, I tried a physical therapist in the facility in Boulder, but I wasn't impress either, and it is expensive.

I saw Dr. Seng for a knee injury and was disappointed in the care and service I was provided. He was extremely brief, did not provide feedback or explanations to my questions, and it seemed as though he had somewhere else to be. My appointment lasted ~10 minutes and felt extremely rushed. The medical assistant or nurse was more helpful and informative. I will not be doing any follow up appointments here.

The care is great and I really like my surgeon. The waiting times are very disrespectful though. I've been coming here for a while now. The waiting times are consistently between 30-60 minutes. They once managed to keep me waiting for almost 90 minutes!

I was excited about this appointment and looking forward to getting on the mend after years of debilitating back issues. However, after seeing Ilya Igolnikov I discovered it wouldn't be possible, at least not here. He was extremely rude, dismissive and didn't even evaluate me. He was constantly looking down at his watch as if he had somewhere else to be and told me he "likes his patients to take care of themselves" and that he "only sees us maybe once per year".
He then said he'd refer me to PT and slighted Dr. Rajpal (a renowned neurosurgeon at another practice) who I was scheduled to see shortly afterwards. It was unbelievable. They then had the nerve to charge me $500 for a pointless 10 minute appointment! When I called in they assured me they'd handle it and stated this "doctor" was new there and didn't represent their practice. One month later and they're still trying to charge me with no follow up. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME GOING HERE. They will make you feel worse about yourself than you did before and offer no help for whatever ailment you are dealing with. 0 STARS.

After doing extensive research to find a Dr. I thought was very qualified I found Dr. William C. Kramer. I visited Dr. William C. Kramer to consult with someone about my bunion and know my options to fix it. The first thing out of Dr. William C. Kramer mouth was, "The pain is most likely in your head". After steering him back into the direction of telling me my options and the risk of said options I won't be returning to Dr. William C. Kramer if/when I decide to have surgery on my bunion. Thanks for making me feel like a junkie trying to get opioids.

I was disappointed with my interactions with Dr. Master and his assistant Tammi. It felt like Dr. Master was (too) eager to suggest several different expensive procedures for a minor hand issue, which felt uncomfortable and not reasonable to me. Later my friends (all in the medical field) told me it's because he's a co-owner with the goal of making money. In addition, his assistant Tammi was extremely rude to me over the phone despite my attempt to ask a few insurance related questions. It was not a good experience and I will not be returning. I'm sorry I spent so much money for nothing but feeling frustrated.
