I broke my tibial plateau after a fall, & Dr. Than performed surgery on my knee area. He took the…read moretime to answer my long list of questions prior to the surgery & at the follow-up appointments. He was open about including my husband at all of my appointments, as my husband was the one providing my in-home care. My husband felt very confident in Dr. Than, as I did. He was very clear about the non-weight bearing restrictions & the time frame for those restrictions. It's amazing to see my scar, now three months after the surgery. It is so faint you can barely see it. My friends are amazed at how wonderfully my incision has healed & so quickly. Dr. Than is very thorough in his pre-op preparation. I have a bleeding disorder & had a pulmonary embolism almost 20 years prior, following a back surgery. I also have asthma & some minor heart issues. Dr. Than made sure I had all the pre-op tests & approvals from my specialists, prior to the surgery. In regard to recovery, Dr. Than has referred me for Physical Therapy & is confident I will regain all of the functions of my leg & knee I had prior to my accident.

Of…read morecourse we all love Dr Macko but he retired Dr. Than is an excellent choice for a knee or hip surgery. He has been trained in very difficult knee and hip surgeries ones that other people couldn't fix. He's caring, will listen to you, but he's also efficient. He has the best PA, Megan Stier that I have ever seen. I commend whoever at Sutter Gould hired Dr.Than, what a smart choice!

Left with very bad scarring and pain. Facelift Revision: April 2023 No improvement and scarring around ears got worse. Would not help and told me that there was nothing more he could do for me. Referred me to dermatologist for laser treatments to help scars. I visited a dermatologist in the same city, after I told him my story, he said, "this was Dr. Almonte wasn't it?" I asked him how he knew that and he said that he has seen many other patients of his with similar issues. He told me laser treatments could not help me and to see another surgeon for a revision. I am in the process of trying to get my face fixed and this will be a costly and long road ahead of me. I feel very sad, angry, tired and frustrated. Dr. Almonte is horrible, I feel abandoned.

My surgery had to be postponed because I had an unexpected issue that required surgery to basically save my life. Dr Hankins and his medical assistant Trish were so great in all the care they provided me. Regarding my husband, he fell on his left hand during one of his walks and broke several metacarpal bones. Dr Hankins surgically repaired the breaks and my husband has experienced excellent results. Many thanks to Dr Hankins.

I don't ever leave bad reviews, but I would like to protect others from this doctor…read more.. DONT TRUST THIS DOCTOR WITH YOUR CARE. I broke my humerus in 2 places on 1/29/23, so the upper bone in my arm was in 3 pieces. I went to Kyle Swanson and he saw me for 5 minutes and then had his tech put on a brace that didn't even cover the injury AND it cut off my circulation so dramatically that my hand doubled in size. I called the office several times because I was scared it was compartment syndrome. I left several messages saying that this was an emergency but they didn't answer or call me back. I had to go to the ER to find out it was his brace that had caused all of the swelling and it could have even further damage. Three days after visiting the ER, they STILL hadn't called back to see if I was in trouble. I had to call THEM. The girl said the office had been busy, and it's honestly alarming that they took on more patients than they could responsibly handle. I'm sure it creates a lot of profit but that's not how you treat people with serious injuries. I've never been so dangerously ignored by a doctor in my life. This office feels no responsibility for the well being of their patients and their care is horrendous. 2/19/24 UPDATE: Anne, from their billing department, just called me and told me that I wasn't justified in leaving this review. Nothing about this review is untrue and the fact that they would call me a year later to debate me is UNREAL. I needed their help a long time ago. BOTH the ER doc and my new doc confirmed that the brace Kyle Swanson HAD HIS TECH put on was actually making my arm worse. Also, Anne said I can't expect that they would call me back in two hours so I would have had to go to the ER doc anyway. Except, if he actually knew what he was doing in the first place I wouldn't have had to go to the ER because it was THE BRACE HE PUT ON that created the subsequent issues. I am truly blown away by the incompetence and callousness of this office. They gave me terrible care, didn't listen to my concerns, and now they are debating their own horrible practices with a patient that desperately needed help. PSA: Go anywhere else
