Dr. Satow specializes in orthopedics and sports injuries. His office is part of the complex of offices up in the Ryan Ranch area, The office is clean and modern and he has the latest equipment. My Mom stumbled out of a van and broke her wrist a couple of weeks ago, It was fortunately a pretty clean break, but she is in her 80s. I went with her on a follow-up appointment where she had her first cast removed, the break Flouroscoped (similar to XRays) and a new cast put on. Dr. Satow did all of this himself, with a great gentle manner and attentive care, while talking to me about the World Cup results at the same time. He put on a lighter cast and she will go back in a few weeks to remove that and get a sling. His office has tickets and sports memorabilia on the walls and he loves competitive sports, despite his professional appearance and soft manner. Dr. Satow graduated from UCSF, is Japanese American and has a lot of ties to the local Japanese American community. read more

Gregg Satow, M.D - Reception area - Sports Medicine Near Me - Monterey, California

I saw Dr. Satow for the first time recently. He was friendly, knowledgable, and patient with me. His attention to detail was impressive and he walked me through the process of getting healthy again. Thank you! read more

Dr. Satow is super competent and a great communicator. He doesn't jump right to surgery until investigating all options. I think it is also very important that his office staff is efficient and helpful. read more

Thank you Dr Satow! Your staff was very helpful especially surgery scheduler.

Dr. Satow is an excellent knee doctor. A friend recommended him because they were so happy with him. And I am too. To avoid knee surgery, I have tried PRP shots and I'm happy to say, I've had great results. read more

This is a bit of an odd review, but due to Dr. Satow's assessment and recommendation, he saved my life. I'd been having leg pain for many years, and my parents thought it was growing pains. (Which was unsettling considering the pain was always in the same leg!) Anyway, one day my hip area was warm to touch which really made me concerned. I went to Dr. Satow and he wasn't able to determine what exactly was going on but felt something was not right, that I needed immediate attention, and referred me to a Dr. at Stanford. With his help, I got an appointment at Stanford for a consult about one week later. Went into the consult and was informed that I needed surgery TOMORROW. Ends up I had an infection in my hip that started to eat away at my hip bone. Pain often shoots down, so that's why I always had pain in my leg. I am forever grateful to Dr. Satow and his staff for being so responsive. I have gone to Doctors who don't have the right answer but continue to treat and charge me! I applaud Dr. Satow for his honesty, intuition, and directing me not only to a specialist, but a top doc in the orthopedic field. Thank you, Dr. Satow!! read more

Dr. Satow is great visit the front desk receptionist was very rude to me when I arrived. She said my appointment was telemedicine and it wasn't. I was a little early and, because of COVID, told to wait outside. I said I would wait in my car and asked when I should come back. She said she'd call me. This experience may impact whether I will return to this office. read more

I have been In Doctor Gregg Satow. He is kind and really listens to my needs. He is intuitive & I feel he is going to help my knees! Their office is is quite, calm & the staff Tiffany & Yissel are both so gracious and makes me feel comfortable. And most importantly they are all knowledgeable. Blessings, Alison read more

I always schedule my appointment by tele-computer, because I know how sensitive he is with scents. Well this time I had to go in for a shot in my knee. I changed my clothes, did not spray on ANY perfume, lotion, or any scents, and as soon as I walk in the door they are telling me I have perfume on. I told them, no I have clean clothes,and that's what you are smelling. I had to reschedule my appointment!! Came in again for the same thing, and it happened again. I told them that I'm not reschedling my appointment. I felt like I was being harassed!! I'm now looking for a new doctor, because I can't deal with the stress that they cause me. I mean what am I suppose to do roll my clothes in the dirt before I come in? No one should be treated like this!!! read more

Very thankful for the rapid appointment and the extended time Dr. Satow spent with me. Very impressed with Dr. Satow and his entire staff.

Waiting time was long (45 mins). Spend a good amount of time in typing during consultation. All docs are like that these days, but would like to have a doc who actually talks to me rather than types most of the time. read more

I've been going to Doctor Satow since the 90's. He is an excellent physician and I would recommend him to anyone who needs an orthopedic surgeon. read more

Pretty disappointed. I scheduled an appointment for, then a week prior, they called and cancelled my appointment because the doctor was scheduled for surgery the same day. So I asked about rescheduling and the associate could not provide a rescheduling date. This doctor was recommended by family too. Their lack of proper scheduling and inability to reschedule as simple appointment leads me to believe their not squared away. read more

Good doctor. Listens and takes time to listen to patient. Approachable and knowledgable.

Excellent. Always listens and understands your concerns. He was my doctor and he followed up close. Waits were short, I would recommend him, he has been in this field many years and knows it well. read more

I have been visiting Dr Satow off and on for more than six years. During that time Dr Satow has been immensely helpful and caring through a couple of injuries a year for me. Last summer Dr Satow operated on my left knee following an encounter with a moving sidewalk in an airport. The surgery was top notch and I've completely healed (six months later). Having Dr Satow operate was like a trusted relative performing the surgery. I would recommend him to anyone who needs an orthopedic surgeon. read more

Very hard to make an appointment. Finally at the appointment I waited for over an hour for the doctor to see me!! They also never return phone calls!! Like our time isn't important??? So rude and unprofessional!! read more

Dr. Satow has done 3 miniscus tear arthroscopies on my knees. I really like him personally and his nurse practitioner is fantastic. I think that I would like a little more post operative guidance is all...I got a lot of info when I was pretty out of it and forgot most of it. It would be better to have the pick up person receive the info. Tiny thing, really...I highly recommend him. read more

I have a hand injury that needs attention now. I called and they aren't accepting appointments for 2 months out. Don't bother. Two stars because the receptionist sounded nice. We have very few orthopedic doctors in the area and I'm forced to see a plastic surgeon for a joint problem since this doctor is too busy for me. Bummed read more

Dr Satow and his staff are kind and explain things very well. I had knee replacement surgery. From the first day I had great mobility in that leg. I feel so grateful now. I gave Dr Satow a hug and thanked him for giving me my life back. I'm relieved. Wendy read more

I called first week of April to get appt and was told she couldn't get me in until end of April but took all my information (phone #, insurance info, does it hurt, what are symptoms). She said she'll call me. It it's now end of April and not a phone call. Why didn't she book an appt? I thought she was going to try to get me in sooner but instead not a phone call. So disappointed! read more

I had a very positive meeting with Dr. Satow regarding an issue with my knee. He was very pleasant and took the time to explain various options for treatment. I left his office inspired by his professional demeanor and knowledge. I have confidence in his expertise and skill, and will not hesitate to continue orthopedic treatment with him! read more

I came to Dr Satow for a second opinion regarding a knee replacement recommendation from another surgeon. Satow took the time to understand how active I like to be, and to warn me of the limitations I'd have after a replacement using current materials & technologies. He recommended a knee clean-out, for which I was long overdue. I chose that route, which removed a lot of debris, scar tissue and calcification. I was able to ski after 6 weeks, and am very comfortable doing normal activies now, after 2 months. We believe this option will permit time for total knee replacements to advance before I have to have that surgery. I am so grateful to Dr Satow for his thoughtful consideration, expert guidance, and excellent surgical outcome. read more

Dr. Satow is a very competent and experienced surgeon. All of my family members are patients of Dr. Satow (eight of us) and we all highly recommend him because of his excellent bedside manner, keen understanding of his own competencies, and excellent results, for both surgical and in-office treatments. He is a highly intelligent, caring and enthusiastic individual and values his patients as people. read more

This review is to tell everyone that looks up Dr. Satow, that he is the very best.My first hip was done 17 years ago, 2nd one 10 years ago, my knee 2years ago. I have never had any trouble with any of them.They now all feel like l was born with them. He is very careful,and extremely good at what he does !! read more

Dr. Satow is my hero. Approximately 12 years ago I was in a pretty horrific car accident. My micro surgeon recommended Dr Satow to me for any future problems. Recently after 3 years of putting it off my general practitioner said enough!!! time for shoulder surgery. So off I went to Dr. Satow. He's very conservative on surgery so I knew if he said time to do it, it was time!!! He is so kind, you never feel rushed when talking to him. You can tell he loves what he does. Best yet the surgery was a complete success after 3 years of continual pain in my right arm is gone. I can not recommend him enough!!!!!!! Besides the fact you can trust him and he's not going to sell you into surgery when not needed. If you have to wait for appointment worth waiting. If you have to wait in office worth it. He's not like a lot of doctors who overlap or over book scheduling he doesn't he listening to a patient. More Doctors like Dr. Satow it would be a wonderful world medically!!!!!!!!! read more
