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. On the same day of my first visit he even followed up with me twice to check in and offered to contact him over the weekend if I was still having pain. Definitely knows his stuff and takes a comprehensive approach to treating and managing pain. Also, very attentive, professional and caring.

It was when even laying down was painful that I knew had to do something. I had pain in my lower back, hip, and leg and it wasn't "going away". Ugh. So, against everything I pretend to believe in I talked myself into finding some help. With research and after looking into a few different practices, I made an appointment at Active Health. Let me tell you, from the absolute second I walked in the door at my first appointment I felt completely comfortable. That, you guys, is saying a lot coming from someone who has an aversion to anyone and everyone in a white coat. The office is so inviting and relaxing (and it smells super nice) and the ladies at reception, they are so friendly and kind. When it was my turn to see Dr Mike I was brought into a really nice exam room. He asked about and more importantly listened to my problem then he clearly explained what was going on and how he could help. After that I got my first active release treatment. (Ouch) Yey! I was so happy - I made a great choice and I would eventually be feeling like me again. I have been visiting Dr Mike regularly for the past few weeks because I was hoping to feel well enough to run a charity 5k with my colleagues this coming weekend. Sure enough, I feel better... and, I am 100% convinced that i would not be able to run without having had come to see Dr Mike. Thank you sir!!!! Would I recommend Active Health? Absolutely YES. I have had a great experience so far, I really like everyone, and the techniques Dr Mike has been using on me coupled with is obvious knowledge of human anatomy really do work. I will definitely continue to visit his office to further improve how I feel, maybe to fix some of my other trouble spots (haha) and well, basically keep myself feeling well. No more uncomfortable laying down for me!!!

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.

Apparently they take the best pictures and I'd recommend anyone to Yale MRI. You can either park in the garage, or you can do valet. It's very simple to get to, so if you're worried about driving in New Haven, worry not. It is a very short and simple drive off exit 1. I do recommend scheduling your appointments around rush hour however and on a sunny day... It makes for a much more pleasant drive to an otherwise unpleasant experience. But the staff I re-assure you makes it clear as to what they are doing and how it will all work.
