Mark Brandt's Online Review Report Card

Very rude, condescending, did not answer my questions. Just terrible. I would not trust my health to this doctor nor would I ever go to him again

Awful experience. I’ve never had a doctor make me cry and feel so vulnerable. Insulting. Rude. Made me feel like a fool for coming in. I’d say misogynistic. Arrogant. And Mr. Big Pants totally missed something important and it’s WHY I was there. I had ulcers near my urethra. Very painful. But he was too busy insulting me and making poor attempts at wit to cover his strong negative come-on, that he totally missed that. Oopsy! Insurance gets billed for this crap, folks!

Dr. Brandt is very knowledgeable and helpful, I’m under his care for over five years and I can’t think of better doctor. He always takes time to answer all my questions and even crack a joke from time to time. Yes, you may have to wait few minutes pass your appointment, but that’s because he will never put “hard break” on anyone’s visit for as long as your questions are constructive and related to your case. Yes, I will highly recommend Dr. Brandt to my family and friends.

First of all, the doctor was 90 minutes late for my procedure. I almost left his office while waiting so long, and in highlight I wish to goodness that I had. Dr. Brandt performed a very invasive procedure, which has now left me with damage to my prostate. I should have sought out a consult with another doctor BEFORE I allowed Dr. Brandt to perform such an invasive procedure. Afterwards, he called me the following week and said he needs to perform another biopsy, as the results of my test were inconclusive. Thank goodness I went to another doctor. This doctor questioned why Dr. Brandt did the biopsy in the first place. Second doctor suggested I should have been referred for an MRI first, and only after this should a biopsy been ordered, if so indicated by the less invasive MRI procedure. I feel that Dr. Brandt needlessly subjected me to a highly invasive procedure, and sadly, the complication caused from this procedure will impact me now and in the future.

Hi Joseph Star here, I've never met a more down to earth compassionate person based on his experience and professional service I highly recommend this person and staff you wont be disappointed. Thankyou Joseph Star

I have found Dr. Brandt to be entirely professional. He is not a therapist and expectations for same are unrealistic. His staff always answered questions thoroughly and with outstanding knowledge of my profile. If either Dr. Brandt or his staff were unable to answer at the time, I was contacted in a timely fashion. If you want to see someone who has 25 years of experience and knows his craft, make an appointment. If you want to talk for hours and hours, find a specialist who has less experience and more time. As an older woman who has lots of experience sadly in his area of expertise, I can assure you that you will be treated with respect, guidance and clinical know-how.

On a refural from my internist I made an appointment to see Dr. Brandt in Niles. The preappointment questionnaire took 20 minutes to complete. It seemed like over 100 questions. I arrived early and was checked in a room. The nurse asked me a few questions and told me the doctor could be in shortly. I waited 40 minutes sitting on the table for the doctor. The doctor never came nor did anyone have the courtesy to update me on my appointment. I ended up leaving and never saw the doctor. Basically a waste of time.

If I could give him less than 1 I will, this doctor without even seen my son, gave a diagnostic . My son wanted a second opinion, this person , so call doctor, call me and told that because he talked to his friend (doctor #1) he diagnost will be the same. I really upset of the poor and unprofessional service of this Mark Brandt. When a patient looks for a second opinion a doctor should be able to give to them. The health system along with doctor Brandt are a shame. Hope nobody goes with him.

Gr, Brandt make me wait between arrivai around 3 hours, and he spent, between staff and himself little more than half-3/4 of an hour. I came to check for a kidney stone and to diagnose it and he did not address the issue at all. Then he proceeded to enter my penis with a large tube, I told him he was hurting me very bad and he said I am putting some anesthesia, and it looked like only iodine. After whatever he did, hi proceeded to push in the tube and even I complained he kept pushing it ignoring my complaint totally. After he finished i express my concern, he said i gave you free a 30 dollars anesthesia why you complain. 2 days has gone by and I has pain and every time I urinate I have an excruciating pain. And he explain that for the operation he recommends I should pay $350 for the anesthesia. I am totally disappointed and I don't trust his recommendation

I would not recommend going to visit dr.brandt. He is unprofessional, unsympathetic, and overall unhelpful. I would try getting a recommendation for a different physician. He will get you no where and complain he isn’t getting paid for it.
