Thorough and informative

Craig H. | May 18, 2023

I am a retired physician. I approached Dr. Skeehan with a series of questions and cautions. He responded directly and forthrightly, and we collaboratively worked out a plan of approach to my surgical problem that was responsive to my needs, concerns, and medical background. We have yet t o execute the plan, however ... so followup is a bit slow.

Robert S. | May 18, 2023

Dr. Skeehan was excellent at explaining my surgery options and their pros and cons. He has always been willing to take the time to thoroughly answer any questions that I ask him. The surgery went smoothly and 3 weeks later I'm feeling great.

Jeff R. | May 18, 2023

Dr. Chen is very through and had answers for all of my questions.

Enjoyed meeting staff and Dr. Robertson. Phone contact with Rachel and Jill has been very satisfactory. Everyone very pleasant and helpful.

Randi L. | May 12, 2023

I recently did a review where I expressed frustration with Dr. Chen. I would like to retract and express that Dr. Chen did do great work. I was frustrated with how hard it was to get ahold of the office for a response yes. But remembering that Dr. Chen is only 1 person, and is a very highly sought after surgeon. He did make a point to contact me directly and talk thoroughly with me about the surgery and recovery. I am very appreciative for that, and would recommend him to anyone. Sorry about my not so great review the other day about my experience. Dr. Chen definitely went out of his way to make me feel heard and cared for. Thank you.

Madison K. | May 09, 2023

EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE. I'VE BEEN WORKING WITH JILL FOR MY UPCOMING SURGERY AND SHE HAS BEEN VERY HELPFUL, QUICK TO RESPOND, AND ENJOY WORKING WITH HER. THANK YOU JILL.

RITA V. | May 09, 2023

Dr Skeehan explained in detail my condition and the next steps to be done. It is just really hard to get appointment. I needed to wait 2 months before I could be seen.

Maria R. | May 09, 2023

This was my first experience with a surgical process. The initial consult was useful to review most of what to expect leading up to, and during, the procedure. I did have a couple of questions regarding my experiences after the procedure (eg. bruising; pains) that I wonder whether they might have been mentioned as part of the consult, it they weren’t significant. Post surgery follow up included a call from the doctor’s office two days after the procedure, not the following day (not sure if that’s “sop” or not). I didn’t have my post op meeting with the doctor until the fourth week, which I thought to be too far out, but I had no real issues so it worked out okay. There was a problem with the actual surgery day. I was supposed to get a call from the hospital team three days prior to the surgery day. That didn’t happen. Fortunately I went to the hospital on a Saturday to see if they had any information, and after a variety of calls and texts throughout the day, finally got confirmation that the surgery would/could happen. If I hadn’t gone in on my own to see what was wrong, I would have shown up on my day expecting the operation, only to find out that I wasn’t properly prepared for the surgery (antiseptic cleaning) and that the hospital didn’t have me on the schedule. There was some miscommunication that created this problem, whether by the doctor’s office, the hospital surgery unit, or both. I was never told the nature of the miscommunication. I’d also note that I had what I perceived to be a problem of being released too early (ie. I had no recollection of being released from the hospital). This would be a potential issue with the hospital’s recovery process, not the doctor, but thought I’d mention it. The miscommunication and resulting scheduling issues noted above notwithstanding, the procedure itself went well and the Dr Skeehan responded appropriately when it became evident that additional time would be necessary to take it to completion. As a result, I’d be confident utilizing Dr Skeehan in the future were I to need the type of surgical services that he provides!

Reg M. | May 08, 2023

Dr. Skeehan is knowledgeable, listens and addresses concerns, and explains things clearly in language that his patients can understand.

Pam M. | May 06, 2023

Virginia R. | May 06, 2023

Dr. Robinson is extremely personable professional and knowledgable so far it's been a great experience.

Rose L. | May 05, 2023

Student was professional and Dr. Skeehan answered questions I had.Surgery was scheduled at a local hospital at a reasonable time

John T. | May 05, 2023

No fuss or wasted time. Here’s the problem, here’s the fix. All good…and, as good as it gets. Perfect.

Mark G. | May 04, 2023

Dr. Chen did an excellent job on my robotic surgery. He had advised me that this type of surgery done robotically would result in less pain and faster healing. He was right. I had the surgery, went home the same day, took pain meds for two days and was comfortable throughout. Healing nicely. Like Dr. Chen, the office staff is attentive and professional. I highly recommend him.

Michael D. | May 04, 2023

Excellent service! Letting me know what's going on- making appointments for bloodwork-EKGS. All around-top notch

Dennis P. | May 04, 2023

Very thorough doctor better than most

Paul S. | May 04, 2023

Surgery sounds somewhat frightening but Dr Chen made it sound very simple. Everything went smoothly before during and after surgery. Him and his team were very attentive. Everyone from the receptionist to the anesthesiologist were very welcoming and professional. They're knowledge of their individual jobs put me at ease from start to finish. They followed up after surgery and I have minimal scarring.

Kadie T. | May 04, 2023

Great experience. Great people. Every was explained perfectly.

James D. | May 03, 2023

Office staff friendly and efficient. Working with Dr Chen was smooth. He is forthright and honest, rendered his opinion with options and without pushing

Denise P. | May 03, 2023

Dr. Chen did a great job on the surgery, no complications and minimal pain afterwards. He was very professional and caring. The only thing I wasn't very happy with was that I felt a little rushed during both the consultation and the post op appointment. I like to ask lots of questions, and felt that he was impatient and just wanted to get on to his next patient.

Dora Luz H. | May 03, 2023

Great personal connection presurgical, successful procedure, at one week recovery is excellent with minimal discomfort.

Frank D. | May 03, 2023

Dr Skeehan has been great all the way through my surgeries and complications. I would highly recommend him.

Ronald H. | May 03, 2023

Dr. Skeehan was great! And my experience with him has been very pleasant. I would highly recommend him.

Michelle L. | May 03, 2023

The doctor was great, he talked me off the ledge so to speak. He did great work, no pain really at all after the first few days. He made the smallest incision I think possible. If I ever need a surgery I’ll ask for him and his partners. The one I met was also fantastic.

Ron H. | May 03, 2023

Very professional. Dr Robertson explained what the surgery entailed, and everything when smoothly.

ANTHONY S. | May 03, 2023

Courteous knowledgeable staff. Dr Braley, the same…

Jim H. | May 03, 2023

I must admit that I was nervous going into surgery due to past bad experiences, but I'm so thrilled to say that Dr Skeehan has replaced those bad memories with positive ones. Even with my migraine on the day of surgery, everyone went out of their way to make sure I was treated with care, respect, and that I was comfortable. My partial thyroidectomy went great, I can swallow again, and I would gladly recommend Dr Skeehan to my closest friends and family. Thank you for making surgery feel like a good thing!

Elise B. | May 03, 2023

Dr. Robertson provides the Gold Standard of care. He listens to the patient, addresses concerns, and truly cares about a positive outcome for the patient. He is a highly skilled surgeon with a calm, reassuring bed-side manner. His office staff communicate well and are quick to respond to questions. My surgery and recovery was a success, and I attribute that to the excellent care from Dr. Robertson.

Debi S. | Mar 25, 2023

Professional and knowledgeable and friendly

Bob R. | Mar 24, 2023

Dr Robertson talked to me not at me and we had a very good conversation about what my diagnosis was and what he will do to surgically correct it. He explained every step and allowed me to ask all of my questions and answered them so that I know what to expect. The MA who helped me was great as well, very warm and caring.

Carol D. | Mar 23, 2023

Robertson was the second consultation at Sierra pacific I had and I’m so glad I did that. He is knowledgeable, friendly fast and efficient.

Shalean M. | Mar 23, 2023

First visit Very through Answered all my questions We came up with a plan

Mae G. | Mar 18, 2023

Great doctor

Xitlally M. | Mar 18, 2023

I wanted to say something about Hannah in the office. I needed something from my medical record on a Friday afternoon, Fourth of July weekend. She didn’t put me off, she took care of it right away and it took up a great deal of her time. She is a true care giver and puts the patient first as does Dr. Chen. I would recommend him without reservation.

C W. | Jan 30, 2023

I am so happy that I met Dr Robertson. I have been trying to get someone to agree that I have a hernia for 15 years. I have lived in pain and with the idea that I didn’t know my body. After only about 10 minutes meeting with Dr Robertson he confirmed what I knew all along. I haven’t felt this good for so long that I forgot what it felt like to not be in pain every day. Thank you so much for fixing me so I can be my whole self again!

C W. | Jan 30, 2023

I had a very painful condition that required immediate outpatient surgery after an ER visit. Fortunately I received a referral to Dr. Skeehan whom I can’t thank enough for quickly diagnosing and resolving my problem with minor surgery. Dr. Skeehan’s staff took great care of me the two times I had to visit the office and they also provided prompt answers and advice for post op wound care and pain management. I could not have hoped for a better outcome.

Steven R. | Jan 30, 2023

Saw Doctor Jay Robertson for a hernia repair and gallbladder removal. Dr. Robertson went one step further and had a CT scan done in addition to the ultrasound my GP scheduled. The CT scan gave so much more information. He was very informative going into surgery and made the whole procedure much more bearable.

Kathy L. | Jan 30, 2023

I found everyone at this office to be great from scheduling, to check out to helping me with getting all my records to the office and answering all my questions before my appointment. I LOVED Dr. David Skeehan! He is a very sharp doctor, great personality, listens and gave me some answers to try to help me get further testing so he could figure out what direction we head in after. I wish everyone doctor was like him! If I have to have surgery (which I’ve had 10 so far) I would not hesitate to have him do it.

Mar M. | Jan 30, 2023

Excellent! Dr. Chen is terrific--an excellent surgeon. The staff is friendly and efficient. I had an outstanding experience. Highly recommend!
