I was first referred to Dr. Labovitch in 2009 when I was 68 y.o., for a torn rotator cuff and a…read morefractured greater tuberosity (bone) from an ice-skating accident. My goal was to regain 100% range of motion so I could resume my normal activities including my exercise regimen comprising dumbbells and chinning bar. I had spoken to a neighbor older than me who had a torn rotator cuff repaired and could not reach up much above her shoulder. That was not for me. I knew that young people and sports people required 100% restoration while old people probably did not care as much. My research of Dr. Labovitch revealed that he was a sports medicine physician. Sports people with an injury don't want to have any limitations after treatment, so that was the best sign that Dr. Labovitch was the orthopedic surgeon for me. When I went to his office, I gained my ultimate confidence when his waiting room was filled mostly with young people. My surgery was successful, and although it took a bit (maybe 9 months) of expected rehab effort on my part, done partly at home, I regained 100% range of motion, and my arm and shoulder felt no different from the way it was before my accident. I had several subsequent visits to Dr. Labovitch for different issues, and each time his diagnosis was perfect and my recovery complete and uneventful. When requiring PT I always went to California Rehabilitation & Sports Therapy at 36 Mauchly in Irvine, run by Anthony Bisaccia, who is very competent, has a great team, and is wonderful to work with.

A few years ago when Dr Labovitch was in Newport Beach, I came in to have my shoulder looked at…read more They wanted to do an X Ray. The technician that did the X Ray was a young woman who did not give me a lead protection cover for my body. I asked her if I needed one and she said "No, you used to need one, but these days the machines are more advanced". But I chose to ask for one anyway. I just wanted to post this review because I don't think what I was told was correct. So the office manager should make sure their staff is protecting their patients during every X Ray. This is why I gave only a 2 Star rating. But they are good and Dr Labovitch is knowledgeable and nice.

The Best Foot Doctor…read more Knowledgeable About Bunion Excellent job what he did to my Bunion

​I am writing this to encourage anyone considering surgery here to strongly consider getting a…read moresecond opinion, as my experience felt more like a sales pitch than a thorough clinical evaluation. ​Clinical Findings: During my initial visit, the Physician Assistant indicated that my symptoms were very likely hamstring-related and that a meniscal cause was very unlikely. Notably, my meniscal tests during the physical exam were negative. ​However, during the follow-up, the surgeon focused completely on a horizontal meniscal tear identified on the MRI--a finding that is usually degenerative and often incidental or asymptomatic in nature. ​Omitted Information: Other relevant MRI findings were not disclosed. After requesting a copy of the MRI report myself, I learned there was also a semimembranosus (hamstring) tendon tear. This issue is not treated surgically, and it aligned perfectly with the PA's initial clinical assessment. ​This lack of disclosure regarding alternative explanations left me feeling that the focus was more on scheduling a procedure than on fully exploring the correct diagnosis. I would strongly encourage others to review their imaging reports personally and obtain a second opinion before proceeding with surgery here

I brought my son to see Dr. Lin because he fractured his finger playing catch with a football, and…read moreI really appreciated how quickly they were able to get him in. Dr. Lin reviewed his X-rays explained everything to us and put a splint on his finger. He was very kind to my son, and the entire staff was just as friendly and caring. They even followed up a week later to see how he was doing, which I really appreciated. It's stressful taking your kid in with an injury, so having such a kind team made the experience a lot easier. Thank you, Dr. Lin and staff!

I can't believe how badly I was treated by the Ortho DOCTOR. Every, single other person (staff and…read morepatients) were kinder to me than the actual doctor was. I've been writhing in pain and all I asked for was assurance that my broken leg didn't need surgery and pain meds. I'm not an addict or breaking my bones on purpose to get sympathy or drugs. This Orthopedic Specialist is not special or even necessary if he can't spend more than 30 seconds with a patient. I'm in so much pain. Without any drugs for days. If you're too busy, don't treat patients. I have children and a husband who depend on me. I need to go to the ER like I need a hole in my head. But the Newport Beach HOAG ER treats me better, kinder, and with more thought than this DOCTOR did. You're a joke if you think that my actual pain... and completely broken leg was not worth your effort.

I was originally referred by my primary care physician to Dr. Burdi after months of back pain…read morewithout any relief. Dr. Burdi ordered physical therapy and an MRI that showed that the L5-S1 joint degeneration was causing my pain. When physical therapy and cortisone shots were found to be ineffective, surgery was explained as the best way to address the pain. I was hesitant at first due to the lengthy recovery and time I would need to take off from work (I am a kindergarten teacher). However, I decided that surgery would be the best option for me and I am so glad I had the procedure. Dr. Burdi did a great job explaining the procedure and recovery. The pain after surgery was minimal and I was off pain medication by the second day. Getting in and out of bed took some help for the first few days until I was more mobile. I didn't realize how tiring daily activities would be after surgery and how frequently I would need to rest. Each week after surgery I noticed great improvement. I never completely understood how involved your back is in every day to day activity. I am stronger now than I was for years prior to my surgery and I am pain free. Make sure you utilize physical therapy and keep up your exercises at home. It makes a world of difference. Now being one year post-op, I am so glad I had the surgery. I would highly recommend Dr. Burdi and his team to anyone that is struggling with back pain.

Dr. Burdi has been treating my three herniated disks for 11 years. For the first 7 years with oral medication (2 occasions) worked, but when oral medication no longer worked spinal injections have provided 4 years of relief. Three injections in less than 15 minutes and pain relief was instantaneous. When my knee had a torn meniscus and arthritis, Dr. Burdi's surgery provided not only pain relief but my knee feels 20 years younger. I am extremely impressed with Dr. Burdi and his team, Tyler Waldron, PA-C, Pat in scheduling and nursing staff. The Dr. Burdi and Tyler Waldron always makes great efforts to explain options, walk me through x-rays and MRI results, a treatment plan and follow-up. Even the little things like having an X-ray department and an MRI on-site, good office location and free parking, all make visits easier. I am so pleased I have found the expertise I need.
