Alan Kutner's Online Review Report Card

The worst of the worst! This one runs a pill mil. Cares less about patient care and more for his money! He misses or ignores obvious unhealthy symptoms to his patients detriment. This one should be avoided. If he senses your unsatisfied he apt to throw you out of his practice!

February 2022 Warning to South Floridians Physicians Group of South Florida Health Care Issues A pill-mill with Gestapo-like tactics? Don’t let this happen to you! My name is Robert 77 living in Miami with medical issues. I was a patient of Dr. Alan Kutner for years and I trusted and expected good and proper medical treatment from him. In late July, 2021, Dr. Alan Kutner's office called and told me my August appointment wasn't necessary. I had just seen Dr. Kutner in July. It was too soon for an August visit. I was on an every six month checkup schedule with him. A few days later, Dr. Kutner saw fit to personally call my home ranting in a harsh and intimidating tone suggesting a no-show fee for an appointment missed. Dr. Kutner refused to renew any of my meds for weeks. I suggested we both could make small adjustments. (Get over it) and re-schedule with him, but Dr. Kutner refused me saying our doctor-patient differences are too great and that he now considered me to be a non-compliant patient…was it because I refused to pay a penalty for an appointment canceled from his office or was it another appointment I may have missed? I'm unaware of any issues with Dr. Alan Kutner until this occurred and I can not find a rhyme or reason for these very harsh actions against me. Are the other PGSF patients victimized like this? I hope for Dr. Kutner’s sake he will take a chill pill and consider a medical practice make-over! 1). Dr. Kutner fired me as a patient. 2) He removed me from access to my medical history on the PGSF website. 3) He has banned other PGSF doctors from seeing me as their patient. 4) Dr. Kutner’s associate Dr. Wolfson refused to honor my scheduled follow-up appointment with him for a new and pressing colonoscopy issue. A specific issue of concern was: Research shows 60% of older people are vitamin D deficient. Every year I was with Dr. Kutner I displayed skin conditions that suggest vitamin D deficiency. The best suggestion from Dr. Kutner was for me to see my dermatologist. Vitamin D deficiency impairs one’s immune system. I have concern due to Covid. Dr. Kutner did not test for or offer treatment for that until I mentioned a blood test that was taken elsewhere that showed the deficiency. I had to ask Dr. Kutner to prescribe 50,000 IU Vitamin D3 for me. Finding non-PGSF doctors in my area is challenging. I have to replace Dr. Kutner, Dr. Wolfson, and probably my unresponsive Cardiologist for current care needs as a result of being denied care by his practice.

Love the office and Dr Kutner and all of the doctors in that office are exceptional.

Dr. Kutner first diagnosed an abnormality in my heart due to high blood pressure, a problem he said I could reverse with exercise if I controlled my BP with medication and exercise --a year and a half later my echocardiogram show no abnormality. I averted the onset of heart disease with Dr. Kutner's diagnosis and solution to reverse it.

I wouldn't recommend this doctor. He doesn't acknowledge that the patients know their bodies and the difference between ear pain and their ears needing to be cleaned

He's a little fast to throw alot at you yet he's honest what he thinks , but that's it it's only what he thinks and to me Doctors don't know it all, everything he said and heard I had was wrong so thank God, why I recommend him well he's fast thorough and even calls you at home , doesn't seem to always listen nor are you going to get a great staff but your kinda have to do your own legwork he sent me for a stress test, but it was up to me to find a place that would not cost me out of pocket

Very good person and doctor, ready to listen. It was my first appointment with.I certainly found my doctor.

Did not listen and ordered tests that were not authorized or approved by patient.

My experience with Dr. Kutner has been great! He will actually call you with your test results!! Not like other offices were someone will just call you if there is something wrong. He will personaly call you no matter what. He returns phone calls promptly and is great with diagnostics AND follow up. He is a very caring, smart and wonderful doctor. His staff is just as good as he is. Great experience and will not change him for anything in the world. He is around one hour away from my house, and I really do not care the drive just because I know that my visit to him will be worth it.

You really have to be prepared with your questions. It feels like he has his eye on the clock and can only spend a predetermined amount of time with his patients. Good diagnostitian.
