He took the…read moretime to answer my long list of questions prior to the surgery & at the follow-up appointments. He was open about including my husband at all of my appointments, as my husband was the one providing my in-home care. My husband felt very confident in Dr. Than, as I did. He was very clear about the non-weight bearing restrictions & the time frame for those restrictions. It's amazing to see my scar, now three months after the surgery. It is so faint you can barely see it. My friends are amazed at how wonderfully my incision has healed & so quickly. Dr. Than is very thorough in his pre-op preparation. I have a bleeding disorder & had a pulmonary embolism almost 20 years prior, following a back surgery. I also have asthma & some minor heart issues. Dr. Than made sure I had all the pre-op tests & approvals from my specialists, prior to the surgery. In regard to recovery, Dr. Than has referred me for Physical Therapy & is confident I will regain all of the functions of my leg & knee I had prior to my accident.

He has been trained in very difficult knee and hip surgeries ones that other people couldn't fix. He's caring, will listen to you, but he's also efficient. He has the best PA, Megan Stier that I have ever seen. I commend whoever at Sutter Gould hired Dr.Than, what a smart choice!

After suffering a shoulder injury, I was referred to Alpine by my treating doctor. Before Alpine…read morewill book an appointment, all medical records need to be submitted to the surgeon for review. Once reviewed and the doctor accepts to see the patient, the front office will book an appointment. This process took about two weeks before the doctor agreed to see me. The front lobby is pretty large with plenty of seating and accessible bathrooms. There is also a small table and chairs for children in the corner. There are five windows in reception, so wait time to check-in is pretty quick. The receptionist I've dealt with was pleasant. The reason for taking one star away: This place is extremely busy. Plan ahead and ensure your schedule is clear a few hours around your appointment time. After being checked-in for my appointments, I wasn't taken back to a room for about 20 minutes after my scheduled time. Once in the patient room, it took about 1 1/2 hours on my first appointment and about 30 minutes on the other two appointments to be seen by the surgeon. There are signs posted informing patients of these delays. I 100% agree that every patient is different and times can vary. However, this was probably the most annoying thing about my experience at Alpine. Having said that, my doctor took time to explain the procedure and my options. After speaking with him and researching him, I was confident in his ability to repair my shoulder. Once I elected to proceed with surgery, I was able to schedule surgery pretty quickly. On the day of the surgery, my surgeon checked in with me to ensure I didn't have any last minute questions. He told us the estimated time surgery would take and told my wife he would call her when my procedure was done. Once I was done in surgery, he called my wife as promised. I did not suffer any complications after surgery. Everything healed well, looks good and I am expected to make a full recovery. Based on my experience, I would use Alpine again.

My shoulder reconstruction surgeon utilizes this center to perform his surgeries. The front…read morelobby/check-in area is on the smaller side. There are 20 or so chairs. The ladies at the front counter were nice and a pleasure to deal with. The lobby had a tv and a one person bathroom. When the nurse called my name, she recorded my current height and weight. She gave me a gown to change into and a large plastic bag to place my clothes/belongings inside of. The recovery area has ten or so beds. My nurse escorted me to my room and began all pre-surgery checklist stuff. Once that was complete and my IV was placed my surgery was delayed due to a longer than expected surgery prior to mine. Different nurses continually checked in with my wife and I to inquire if we needed anything. When it came time for surgery, I was rolled into the operating room where all the medical staff introduced themselves and were very welcoming. One of the nurses had a conversation with me about my kids which helped with pre-surgery anxiety. The conversation was the last thing I remembered until I woke up in recovery with my nurse. My recovery nurse, Richel was amazing. She remained with me the whole time during my recovery. She was professional, attentive and a pleasure to have as my recovery nurse. We had some good conversations to pass the time. At no point did I feel like she rushed me out the door. Recovery was done at my pace as I started to feel better. I would have no issues having surgery here again.

I had the first good experience with anesthesia in my life. I'm not a spring chicken, so that is saying a lot! I woke up feeling like I had just had a nap. No weakness at all. I normally have about 2 weeks of muscle weakness from anesthesia. Not this time! I am so appreciative of their care and concern. I got a call from them the next day checking on me. They are so awesome! On 10/16/23 I went there again to get a complete replacement of my left hip. I was nervous again, although not as much as the last time. Again, the entire team was caring and helpful. I asked the anesthesiologist to use the same meds as last time since they worked so well. He got a printout and said it was a pretty standard way they do things there. I was a bit loopy when I got home, so I had a friend stay with me. After I slept off the anesthesia, I was able to get up and feel again like I had just had a nice nap. No weakness this time either. I got a call the day after again checking on me to make sure everything was going well. I don't remember getting calls from surgical centers from past surgeries. They really go above and beyond with their care. I would absolutely want to go there if I needed surgery again in the future. I only have 2 hips, so that probably won't happen again in the near future. Major Kudos to the team!

I can't say enough great things about Dr. Vu...he is truly amazing! From the very beginning of my…read morepregnancy all the way through delivery, he was patient, caring, and incredibly attentive. No matter how many questions I had (and trust me, I had a lot ), he always took the time to answer them thoroughly and never made me feel rushed. There were moments when I felt worried or even a little paranoid, but Dr. Vu always knew how to put me at ease. His calm and reassuring approach made such a difference, and it gave me complete confidence throughout the entire process. I trusted him fully with my care, and that peace of mind is priceless. Now that I'm done having kids, I'm just so grateful that I chose Dr. Vu to be my OBGYN. I wouldn't change a single thing about my experience. He is hands down the best in town, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a doctor who truly cares about his patients.

Due to lack of choices given with medi-cal in this region and good on reviews I decided to come…read morehere. Initial visits were ok, he told jokes but visits were extremely rushed. He would rarely give any of my appointments more then 10 minutes. Also he wouldn't ever explain my results in a way I could understand. Felt very transactional, ESPECIALLY when coming into the 3rd trimester. 3rd trimester visits were literally a walk in for vitals and a walk out I'll see you next time. I'm sure no matter how long the visit is the payout for them will be the same and at this point I felt like another number to him. The assistants are a hit or miss. One was extremely sweet but wasn't enough to hold up the rest of the team. Pros- right across from the hospital -parking behind his office so u don't have to pay - allows you to record ultrasound Cons- there's always a student here taking vitals and or watching so expect to see a different face each visit before seeing Dr. Vu - visits are rushed and normally under 10 mins (half the time waiting in the room after vitals) - assistants are rude and won't listen - Vu doesn't explain anything well - complaints aren't taking seriously - 3rd trimester visits are a joke (he said they would then only look at the baby once during this time and just measure the stomach because of cost of running the machine sounded like bs to me) - expect to have no say or wiggle room with your birth plan as he feels like he knows best. - they take lunch inside and open their doors after when they feel like it. I made a complaint with insurance against them. Of course they replied with a false statement. It was a heated argument with an assistant who made a decision for me based on emotions. Being so far along I'm deciding to choose peace and just leave it alone but share my review for other future parents. If you can avoid here I would.
