Everyone Stop, before you see this guy. He canceled my surgery three times in a row for no reason I had to fire him to get my money back and it's been over a week and I'm still trying to get my money back don't go to this doctor. read more

I just had Trimalleolar surgery on my leg, i have called into this office multiple times, no one ever answers the phone, no one ever calls you back, i am in need of a medication, refill and x ray before my next appointment, and nothing ever gets done. No one EVER answers the phone, returns your call. I have never dealt with a physician office before that NEVER answers the phone regardless of the time of day or day that you call. REALLY DISAPPOINTED. I can't even walk, let alone get a phone call back. Ridiculous. Have a little compassion for your patients that have life changing events. read more

So far he has been very helpful. Honest and upfront with what I need. I have been very grateful for his approach and explanations of the care I need read more

Very Loud, unshaven, I think he is going deaf. No confidence at all in his skills or techniques. I had Carpel Tunnel Syndrome on my left wrist. Referred out to him from the VA , as he was on their list for surgeons that do this kind of surgery and Tri west who was the referring agency to the VA. Done at Banner Casa Grande Hospital, got up at 3:30 am, arrived at hospital at 4:30 am, prepped for Surgery at 7AM, no food from midnight on, staff at Banner were great, very nice the Doctor who puts you too sleep was fantastic, they said he was running an hour late AS ALWAYS, They said he was a pain in the butt, always screaming at the top of his lungs even if he is standing right next to you! I layed in that recovery room bed TILL 6:30PM for a less that 10 MINUTE PROCEDURE! Next Day changed bandage and found out I had a ROARING STAFF INFECTION, yellow pus pouring out of the incision, call his office and usual got one those VERY RUDE poorly trained "medical assistants" who told me she would have his PA call me, Told Her I was a PA as well and I knew that this was wrong and needed antibiotics ASAP please call in a Script to Walgreens. I then called the VA and they called me in a script to Walgreens which I picked up right away. The infection raged on for 5 days and only after that was to have an appointment with the Doctor, but come to find out it was with his PA who has no professional personality and does not have a clue on what he is doing. I finally got an appointment with Dr. Dr. M, he was very non chalant about the infection, he said "IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME", which I know is BS, it does not! When I contacted Banner they said Dr. M was full of crap, kit was his techniques hat cause these Things! The pain is much worse in my wrist, the scar is terrible, may need plastic surgery to fix this. I am considering a law suit over all this and his terrible techniques and the terrible infection I got, I took picture of all of this and my wrist ozzing yellow pus out! Do not even consider his for your surgery, if you do you are making a BIG MISTAKE! read more

Little over two years ago I got my humerus bone at my shoulder broken in 5 places. Dr. Matanky didn't push sugery on me but said later it's something I might want too do too get all the movement back in my arm. No surgery and I'm 99% good as new. Thank you Dr. Matanky for letting me decide instead of pushing surgery. read more

Do not go to this doctor. He's an orthopedic surgeon and worked on my knee last January. A year, two months and four days later I suddenly got a bill from his office saying I owe $1,800 some-odd dollars. I only had surgery once - I was under for maybe 30 minutes - but somehow that turned into three separate operation charges. I was not informed that this would happen either before or after. Furthermore, I verified that the doctor was in my network. His front desk staff told me so and my insurance company told me so. What I did not know was that the LOCATION where the services were rendered were not in my network, that's how I got stuck with this bill. Why didn't his office tell me they were out-of-network? Anyway, aside from all that...before I got the bill a few days ago, I always wanted to write a negative review of him and his practice. I never met the guy until the day of my surgery. Even though all of my appointments leading up to surgery were technically "with Dr. Matanky," the guy was nowhere to be seen. My appointments were actually always short meetings with his assistants. The care was not consistent as I always met with a different person even when I asked to meet with the same person as the last time. When I finally met Matanky that morning, I realized how afraid I was of the surgery. I didn't even know this man and I was going to let him cut into my knee? I expressed how nervous I was about surgery and I wanted to make sure he would take the utmost care with my leg. He barely looked at me. He was unshaven and tired looking. His response was along the lines of, 'I've done this a million times. What are you worrying about?' He made some little joke and in less than five minutes walked off. I know he had a lot of surgeries that day and to me it felt like he just wanted to get this one out of the way. After the surgery he slapped me on the back as if to say, "See ya later, kid." I didn't. I never heard from him again until a few days ago and now I have to pay his office almost $2,000. read more

This office is X-Ray happy! I'm practically glowing! I've had rotator cuff surgery years ago. Then I was having issues. When I had my rotator cuff surgery, they did an MRI to determine if I needed the surgery or just therapy. This doctor just took xrays and said I needed reverse shoulder replacement surgery. I never heard of it! I was in so much pain I wanted it done. I phoned the doctor's office to schedule the surgery and was told I need to see him 30 days before my surgery. Ok I went to see him, he did nothing in that appointment. Then five days before my surgery I was told I need a physical from my doctor!!!!!!! I started to cry I was so upset! I've been doing things to prepare my husband and dogs for life with an invalid. I didn't think my doctor could fit me in, but she did. No thanks to Matanky's office!! Then two days before surgery I was rescheduled for the next day. Finally had surgery in September. It's been rough. I don't have the use of my rotator cuff, just my bicep and deltoid. I wish I'd have gotten a second opinion. Oh yes, I forgot to mention the day of surgery I had to get up at 3:30 a.m. to have my surgery at 6:30 a.m. The pre-op nurse and anesthesiologist both told me Dr Matanky would be 45 minutes late! They said he is ALWAYS 45 minutes late! They weren't happy about it and neither was I. My follow-up appointments, he told me to NOT reach behind my back as I could dislocate my shoulder. My last follow-up appointment, he asked how high I can reach behind my back!!!! He also couldn't find papers showing the exercises I needed to be doing. My physical therapist and I had to get my exercises off the internet! I wish I'd gotten a second opinion! I am sorry I ever allowed this surgery to be done on my shoulder. read more

Dr Matanky took xrays on my knee and said that I needed knee surgery. As the day got closer, I decided to cancel the surgery and get another opinion. As it turns out, the problem was not my knee, it was my hip. Don't go to this guy. read more

He did knee surgery on me and it didn't go well. I suffered with a lot of pain after the surgery in which he told me that time would take care of it. My knee progressively got worse and after a few months I started falling from my knee buckling. I went the Dr. Thomas Carter in Tempe and he found the Dr Matanky left bone fragments in my knee. I underwent a second surgery with Dr Carter and finally obtained relief, a year later! I will not go back to Dr. Matanky. read more

I'm really surprised at the reviews for Dr. Matanky. I heard nothing but good things about him so I went to him for a knee issue I saw three other docs about. He was great! We tried a couple of different things to improve the knee because I didn't want surgery. Even though I was a little better, I did decide to move forward with surgery and I can finally move and walk again the way I hoped to. I really feel like my life is way better cause of him. read more

I've been a patient of Dr Bryan Matanky for over 6 years that culminated in the total replacement of both knees. I will swear about his talent and friendly approach, you are not going to find a better orthopedic surgeon, or person. His talent is a blessing to all. read more
