This was my personal experience;…read more Even if you have been a previous patient within Yale Medical for years but are a new patient with the Yale Orthopedic & Rehab, expect a long wait for an appointment, at least for Dr. Gibson anyway. Even as a prior patient of Doctor Gibson beyond three years of seeing him last you are considered a new patient. Do not be fooled by a non-existent waiting list either, every time I called there to ask if there's been a cancellation they added me to it, nor the false hope of calling daily for a possible cancelation opening as you will learn below. I've had knee pain now for several months and I scheduled an appointment with Doctor Gibson for March of 2023, acquired in November of 2022. I've made numerous calls to try and obtain an earlier appointment due to a cancellation, as directed by Yale staff when I called to schedule my original appointment. I was advised to call daily by several people that schedule appointments. On December 19, 2022, I was told there was a cancellation in January of 2023. When the receptionist learned I was a new patient, I was told "Oh sorry, you're not eligible for this appointment as a new patient." A complete contradiction to what I was advised back in November and most every time I called. How can an open appointment not be available to a patient, whether that patient is new or existing!? To say the least I'm extremely disappointed and frustrated with Yale Orthopedics & Rehabilitation. Good luck to all new patients. Connecticut Orthopedics is a great alternative. Kurt T

Dr. Halim is an incredibly smart and talented surgeon. I'd suffered with carnal tunnel syndrome for…read moremany years before developing full blown tendonitis back in 2015. As a result of a job that required a ridiculous amount of pushing furniture, carrying my office with me everywhere and not having a desk caused more damage than necessary. When a second shot of cortisone didn't work, Dr. Halim suggested I wear a brace to protect my wrist. In 2017 I found that surgery was the next step. I am no stranger to going under so I was fine with that. An MRI revealed arthritis as well so I was glad to be rid of it. After surgery I was in a cast followed by therapy. All one place, the doctors and nurses are professional and do their best to get you in and out quickly. Dr. Halim also has another office where appointments may be easier. She is kind and I am pain free.

TOP NOTCH! EXCELLENT Chiropractic skill set. Acupuncture was spot-on. Dr. Hom consistently asks…read morefor details of the problem(s) and solicits feedback during and after the session so the problem(s) can get fixed. He is generous with his time and knowledge. I have never felt like Dr. Hom was annoyed or judging me for short-comings (ex: not doing some exercises one week). I have only waited once (for 3-5 minutes) to check in, transition to new activities, or pay out, and that was because another patient had some important questions for him. [Now that I think of this, the only other place in healthcare where I don't usually wait is with my N.D.... Rarely waiting in healthcare is SO RARE!] After prescribing helpful exercises at home, I also appreciated his female assistant reviewing these with me while he went on to work with another client. I consistently feel GREAT after a session with him. Greg Hom is a QUALIITY individual, TOP-NOTCH professional and has a heart to serve the New Haven community. Try him out: you won't be disappointed.

One visit with Dr. Hom and I was already breathing a sigh of relief for the first time in weeks.

Definitely knows his stuff and takes a comprehensive approach to treating and managing pain. Also, very attentive, professional and caring.

When my primary care doctor referred me to this office for physical therapy after several years of…read morefluctuating shoulder pain daily, I doubted that it would make a difference. I had never done physical therapy before and thought that my chronic pain had been present for so long that it would be impossible to improve it. I was matched with physical therapist Drew Coisson. During my first appointment, it was clear in his initial evaluation that he was extremely knowledgeable. He spent time assessing my shoulder and asking many questions to figure out exactly what was going on -- and he did! The care plan was easy to follow and track on their website, and every week I saw both my pain improving and my strength progressing. Drew always took the time to explain everything and answer my questions. Thank you to Drew, the PT students, and incredible staff for helping to improve my quality of life through PT.

The only reason why I gave them 3 stars is because it was so cold in the room they were doing the MRI. The machine was set up in a trailer outside of the facility and it was a cold January evening. It would have been nice to have some heat or a blanket. They were professional and got me in and out but a little bit of warmth would have been nice.

His vast experience enabled him to determine his surgical decisions based on my previous personal health history, no cookie cutter surgery here. He took my pre-operative test results seriously to ensure my safety and successful surgical outcome. I had been experiencing increasing pain for 8 months prior to my double cervical fusion (C5-C6 and C6-C7) this fall and only wish I had it done sooner. Dr. Yue is incredibly skilled as my fusions were superiorly placed and am no longer in pain. I will continue to recommend him to anyone who needs spinal disorder related medical treatments. The office staff is always on top of everything, so the office runs like a well-oiled machine. I cannot be more grateful to Dr. Yue and his staff. Until next time.....
