Joel W. Malin's Online Review Report Card

Prompt ly taken. Very little waiting room time. Everyone courteous, interest in what I had to say, answered questions.

Dr. Malin is highly skilled, professional. and approachable. I don’t worry about a surgeon having bedside manners, but more so a skilled surgeon, which Dr. Malin exemplifies. His knowledge is unsurpassed and he delivers his opinion honestly. Thank you, Dr. Malin.

Walked in, didn't say hello or introduce himself. Barley made eye contact. Clicked through the computer/chart and ignored my questions until he was ready to answer. Had to drag any and all possible options for treatment out of him. Tells me one treatment option won't work, then tells me we can try it...Has zero manners, let alone beside manners.

After several years of injections and still dealing with pain, I figured I finally needed knee replacement. Had several recommendations, but decided on an appointment with Joel Malin, as he is in the practice I've used for years, and I wanted robotic surgery. I was impressed immediately with his diagnosis/comments regarding my issues. He's all business, not a lot of small talk, but realized immediately this was the guy I wanted for surgery. Surgery went smoothly, and impressed with his overall performance with the use of the robotic technology/accuracy, as well as the use of zip line stitching. One healed, the scar will almost be invisible. If you want to feel confident in going into surgery, he's the guy!

Worse doctor ever. First thing he said to me was that I was “big” and he wouldn’t help me til I got my “BMI” down. I already lost 70 pounds in 10 years. Referred me to another Dr. @OSG.No one helped me and now I am in the worse pain ever. I was able to walk without a cane when I went to Dr Malin now I need a cane. My take away is if your “big” then no help for you suffer.

I was seen in Orto-fast for a knee pain. The x-ray was clean and I was told if the pain did not go away I would need a MRI. As instructed I called after 5 days of no relief. I was told I needed to be seen again before the MRI could be scheduled. I drove 45 min to appoinment. This rude guy walked in asked me where the pain was when he touched the site I reacted with a jump and sigh. He was taken back by my reaction and told me I was extremely sensitive. I was shocked as I am obviously here because I am in pain. I then had to ask him a bunch of questions as to what this could possibly be...he simply said I don't know what is wrong with you. He offered no other examination I asked him if a brace would help. He then said well yes but based on your oversensitivity you wont be able to wear it. I then said I gave birth 3 times naturally and never cried. I am definitely not over sensitive. This guy has 25 years experience, graduated from 2 top universities, and offers me nothing but insu

They did send a women in to try the brace and as I walked the hallway she asked about my comfort. I told her it is rubbing the bone and he shouts from another room, "I told you, you can't handle it" Goes to show a fancy education and money does not buy you class. In the meantime as I was waiting with my door open I overheard a staff member talking with another about someone who quit she was reading a text this person sent telling her that she was rude and inappropreate as a coworker..she went on to say as if I care. The doctor never came back to my room I had to walk out and ask if I was done and what to do next. I was angry and complained that that was not an examination. I then phoned to complain and the person who I was directed to was the very same lady reading the text message from the upset ex coworker. This place is filled with rude, arrogant, unprofessional people. I should have read the reviews but I was in pain. This man is awful.

He is just rude and I never had a doctor make me ask a million questions I was trying to diagnose myself he just stared at me and said I don't know what is wrong with you.. I want my co-pay back. This was not at all an examination,
