MItchell S Hamburg Md's Online Review Report Card

GERD Follow up. He’s wonderful still! He’s pleasant & humble. Just a great man!

Dr Hamburg was my first Endocrinologist when I was diagnosed in 1973. I wanted the best of the best & that is exactly what I got. I moved from the KC are area almost 30 years ago so I am delighted to be able to have Dr Hamburg take care of my Diabetes & Thyroid when I move back. He has always been so knowledgeable & caring & a great listener, something I know that has never changed. I have always ...

Dr. Hamburg was on time, his nurse Sara was most efficient and empsthetic to my condition. My BP is usually elevated by the whit cost syndrome, but I was on-time for once, and my vitals were under normal, an indication that I was made to feel comfortable and relaxed / unhurried. Dr. H was prepared to address my chief complaint and decided after hearing my explanation of my current state that I indeed had qualified for my treatment. He asked a couple of questions, then turned around to make some notes on his chart and announced that I should obtain my prescribed injection asap or as soon as the insurer had approved it. After ten minutes total, I was on my way with parting words that I will hear from his office to schedule a time for my injection. He noted a six-month follow-up appointment and asked that I present the sheet to the receptionist on my way out. I did so, made the follow-up apptmt for six months on was on my way out and felt very satisfied with his preparatory review of the records, his follow-on questions and current exam. He also took time to answer my questions about what I could do on my own to keep healthy and head off the possible exacerbation of symptoms, his explanation and suggestions were most helpful that I and I could implement immediately and without restriction. I left a very satisfied patient with a favorable outlook and immediate plan to contribute to my own heath and happiness.

Was sent to see this doctor for one problem; and during his routine exam that he does on all patients; he noted another problem. Was sent immediately for follow up to radiology. Dr. Hamburg called me to give me the test results and after he explained everything to me including next order of treatments; my mind was at ease. He made the recommended referrals and I am thankful to him for his expertise; and to this day am doing quite well. Had I not kept my appointment with him that day my outcome today would have been quite possibly very different.

I have been treated by Dr. Hamberg for 25 or 30 yrs. I still have good vision, all my limbs, & functioning kidneys. I am 83 yrs old. He is a wonderful person & an excellent doctor.

CARING AND SUPER SWEET,,,REALLY CARES FOR THE INDIVIDUAL

Dr. Hamburg was originally recommended to me by a dr from the Mayo clinic. He replaced my original endocrinologist and I believe he is the best.

Apparently the nurses decide who will be seen by this Doctor. I was given partial results by the nurse then dismissed. I was never offered an appointment to discuss with the Doctor about my results or the changes he intended to make. This was after waiting 4 months to get an appointment, because he had been highly recommended.

I've been seeing Dr. Hamburg for about 7 years now and he is wonderful! I feel so fortunate to have him as my Dr. I first meet him when I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and I was in the hospital with ketoacidosis. He was accurate on my diagnosis and did an amazing job with my medications. My check ups always blow me away with how extremely prompt he is. I have never waited more the 5 mins. In the waiting room or in the exam room for him. And, he takes my blood pressure, etc. HIMSELF! I am blown away by the level of care and detail from Dr. Hamburg. His diabetic educator Jackie is also terrific!

I would like to add to the comment I made on 6-17-13. The ladies at the front desk were different and much nicer, and a nicer attitude existed throughout the staff overall. As far as Dr. Hamburg goes, I think he is top notch and has done a very good job for me. Thanks Doc.
