I'm new to Irvine, under a new health plan, and this was my first time at this particular clinic, so I wasn't sure what to expect. However, Dr. Albert was extremely professional, thorough and very pleasant. I had all of my doubts resolved after the X-Ray was performed, and he made me feel great about my elbow injury and suggested what I may do from them on. His staff is very good, too. I totally recommend Dr. Albert for your orthopedic issues!

I was very impressed with the doctor's efficient but thorough evaluation. He was quick, but gave my daughter plenty of time to answer questions and explain her pain. He took x-rays and did a complete evaluation but we were out of the office in less than half an hour, which we appreciated. I thought his treatment plan was right on target--not too aggressive but also not overreacting to the problem. He made us both feel very comfortable and gave us lots of good information. A really good experience today, and I'm so glad we chose Dr. Albert. Already recommended him to my friend!

The wait time would have been right away had I filled out the new patient forms before my appointment.

Very fond of Dr. Albert, but won't use ZocDoc again. We waited 45 minutes before the receptionist let us know that they never knew we had an appointment.

Dr. Albert welcomes you with a kind spirit and caring demeanor. He takes his time with you and takes a conservative approach to treatment. You won't feel like you are being sold a product, but rather given the time you need to ensure a proper diagnosis and follow up. I highly recommend Dr. Albert!

Honest in his observation. My reason for this doctor visit is that I have a bunion on each foot, which recently both have been hurting when I wear certain shoes for short periods of time. I don't buy cheap quality shoes, but have a family history of bunions on my dad's side of the family.

Asked me appropriate questions about my pain, location of pain, how long, etc. Then discussed requested treatment, and administered same thereafter.

I was very impressed and would recommend him highly. Was having consistent pain in my shoulder, the nurse took the x-rays right away and was ready for review for the doctor. Doctor took ample time to diagnose the problem and showed my that the x-ray looks good. So for now got the cortezon shots and taking 2 Aleive and twice a day and suppose to go back to him after 2 days. So far pain is almost gone which may just be masked by the Shot and Aleive. Will see what happens after 2 week. So far the doctor seems to be very reasonable and I am happy with the service.
