I was there for knee pain and all he did was read over my previous doctor's notes (now retired) and we agreed upon my continuation of the Euflexxa injections for my knee. I was shocked that he never even examined my knee durning my first office visit with him. This appointment was over six weeks ago and I am still waiting on an approval for my Euflexxa injection which usually takes 1 to 1 1/2 weeks for the approval. I have spoken with Cecily at the office for help on two occasions. The first occasion, she said the there is a delay with Optum and could take up to 4 weeks for approval. Please keep in mind that I am in knee pain. When I called again on August 10, 2026, Cecily said that she cannot tell me the status of my medication and would leave a message for the person who could help me. This person who Cecily promised would help me, never called me back. Wednesday of last week, I called my insurance provider in order to help me find out the status of my medicine and we spoke with Karen. Karen promised that we would have the medication by last Friday. Once again, Karen nor any other person called me back from Dr. Nadel's office. As of yesterday, I filed a complaint with my insurance provider and the lack of help with Dr. Nadel and the office staff. How can the office staff here ignore someone who's in pain and not work on getting the medication that I have been using to relieve the pain now for a couple of years. This is unconscionable.

He shared with me that he could get this better with an in-office procedure (amazing!). His caring assistants, Alexa and Kristine, supported me as I scheduled my appointment. Throughout the entire process, Dr. Raven was extremely kind and caring. I was able to go home afterward, and use my hand for many tasks immediately. Dr. Raven was very supportive in answering my post-procedure e-mail questions, and I am now looking forward to living a hugely improved quality of life, due to the amazing skill of this very special physician. It is a privilege to be a patient of Dr. Raven!

Some folks on here talked about the wait time which I expect at most doctor's offices. They are busy and if they accept insurance, I expect them to be busy. They always apologize if/when it happens but mostly it has been short wait times.

When I called to schedule an appointment, I was connected with a staff member named Craig at the front desk. His behavior was shockingly unprofessional -- he was rude, dismissive, and clearly rushed to get me off the phone. He asked inappropriate and confusing questions, showed zero patience, and made me feel like an inconvenience rather than a patient. If this is how new patients are treated before they even walk through the door, I have serious concerns about the overall quality of care at this office. Craig seems to genuinely dislike working with people, which raises the question -- why is he answering phones at a medical practice? Front desk staff are the first point of contact and represent the entire practice. Craig's behavior is damaging to Dr. Brookinghalt's reputation. I strongly recommend the management review how patients are being treated by this individual.

Back in April, I took my son to see Dr. Keith Brookenthal after he collided with another soccer…read moreplayer and was experiencing back pain. Dr. Brookenthal ordered an X-ray, which revealed what he believed was a cyst on my son's ilium. He told us it was nothing to be concerned about, but because he knew I would still worry, he provided an order for an MRI as a courtesy along with a CD containing the X-rays so they could be correlated with the MRI. Fortunately, I was able to schedule the MRI fairly quickly. However, when we arrived at the radiology department, we were informed that the CD we had been given belonged to a completely different patient. Not only was I given someone else's medical records, but it also meant that someone else potentially had my son's records. This was a serious breach of patient privacy and extremely upsetting. I immediately contacted the office and insisted that the correct CD be delivered to the radiology center so my son's MRI could proceed as planned. Hours later, I received a call from Dr. Brookenthal. Rather than apologizing for the mistake or acknowledging the seriousness of the privacy issue, he focused on the fact that the X-ray had led to the discovery of the lesion, as though that somehow outweighed the error that had occurred. To make matters worse, the "cyst" we were told was nothing to worry about was ultimately determined not to be a cyst at all. It turned out to be something that does require concern and further evaluation. Fortunately, because I work in the medical field, I have a better understanding of what findings warrant further investigation, and I have the opportunity to consult with other physicians and imaging specialists. Thanks to those connections, I was able to have my son evaluated by an orthopedic oncologist without unnecessary delay. I recognize that not every parent has that knowledge or access and may rely solely on the reassurance they receive. This experience reinforced the importance of advocating for yourself and your family and seeking a second opinion when something doesn't feel right. While I appreciate that the initial X-ray led to the discovery of the lesion, the mishandling of medical records, the lack of accountability, and the dismissive response to both the privacy breach and the seriousness of the diagnosis left me deeply disappointed. Because of this experience, I cannot recommend Dr. Brookenthal and his clinic. Patient privacy, accountability, careful communication, and appropriate follow-up are fundamental aspects of quality medical care, and unfortunately, our experience fell far short of those expectations.

I've had an ACL replacement some years ago from a ski accident and the recovery was fast and successful. He didn't ask me any questions about my medical background.
