I've been a patient of General Surgeons of Pasadena since October, 2022. I haven't had any…read moreinteractions with Dr. Chaugle or Dr. Gelber but I've had monthly appointments with Dr. Lam for the last 9 months. The staff, nurses, and management at General Surgeons of Pasadena are professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. I initially entered into the Bariatric program with skepticism and a lot of nervousness, but from the first day Dr. Lam let his beliefs be known on which surgeries he preferred and which worked better for certain situations. Dr. Lam was friendly, extremely knowledgeable, and showed a genuine interest in my well being. I had my surgery last week and despite being nervous, everything went so smoothly and perfectly. I couldn't have asked for a better surgeon. I highly recommend Dr Lam and General Surgeons of Pasadena!

I have raved about going to the dentist my entire life, and I think my kids have followed in my…read morefoot steps. No other doctors office gives us that type of joy. My kids have dual citizenship and most medical procedures are free to them in Mexico if they are conveniently there when those issues need to be met. Otherwise my 18 year old only likes me splurging on his Crab Legs. He had complained about his in-grown toe nail a few weeks ago and he had previously had it surgically removed in Mexico about 2 years ago. I told him I was taking him to the podiatrist. He insisted, "mommy, it's almost summer I can wait till I'm in MX." I am so thankful that he thinks about our needs the way he does, but we have insurance! Dr. Fein's office is very neatly kept, the check in process was simple without a ton of paper work, they are following Covid protocols. It did take a long time to get called back the first time, the follow up was much quicker. Dr. Fein was diligent and very hands on in the consult of my son's painful toe. He outlined the problem, and gave us several options, then thoroughly gave instruction on the care for each option. We were able to make an informed decision that better fit us. We chose a permanent fix. The procedure was done in office same day, but we were given the option to schedule the procedure on a different day to be better prepared. My son's toe is now doing well and I firmly believe he will not have any problems in the future. My responsibility in the procedure and Medications was just a few bucks over $200.00 and well worth it for my 18 year old to avoid any future discomfort.

From the owner: As a board certified specialist in the treatment of foot and ankle disorders, Dr. Fein is committed…read moreto helping you find the relief that you need, analyzing your health and lifestyle, and tailoring a treatment plan that's right for you.

They were great. Everyone put us a ease, kept us updated and most importantly they took good care of my little man. They have a huge waiting area, coffee, wifi and great staff.

My mother had an appointment at 1:30 and its 3 now and they still dont know when they are even…read moregoing to take her to the back just to start prep. You have to fast for the procedure to so she's starving and has a headache. Talking with the other patients here they all have been waiting for hours past their appointment time and still havent been seen. This is ridiculous. Wasting our time and making my mother feel sicker because she's so hungy. I should be able to get some of my money back when they put you through this time waating crap. Its now 4pm and still havent even been taken to prep. Im getting very upset.

Dr Burke is the best! We had a great experience from start to finish. Highly recommend him.read more

I give Dr Burke and his medical staff 5 stars; however, the check out process I give 2 stars. I…read morehave had 4 surgeries (1 ACL, 1 clean up of the knee, 1 shoulder bone spurs and 1 knee replacement) preformed by Dr. Burke and my husband has had one which was a shoulder. But let me tell you if you need paper work to be filled out in order to go back to work after surgery get it to the office personnel ASAP because they don't get in any hurry. I was told they have 7 days to fill it out and to get it turned in. Not sure why it should take so long so for that process I give 0 stars. I had my staples taken out today by one of his PA's and she tried to keep my mind off of it by talking to me which help so I give her 5 stars. They all have great bed side manners. I don't understand why it takes so long to check out that part I give 1 star sometimes it takes longer to check out then it does to see the doctor but I like Dr Burke so I guess it is worth putting up with all of the shenanigans. I trust Dr. Burke and his medical staff and I have the up most respect for them and would highly recommend him for your Orthopedic surgery.
