Dr Taba is the best in his field. He has performed two surgeries on me. They both made my life so much better. Dr Taba is kind, attentive and my favorite all time doctor

I went to Taba for hip replacement. He wound up breaking my pelvis and tearing up my gluteus muscle and LYING to me about it for years. He is a loser. Don't go to him.

TERRIBLE, TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE WITH HIM AND STAFF. OVER TWO YEARS PRESSURED ME MANY TIMES FOR SURGERY. I HAVE DONE WELL WITH THE GEL INJECTIONS BUT FROM DAY ONE REFUSED TO LISTEN TO ME .
STAFF VERY RUDE AND INCOMPETENT.
DON'T BOTHER TO GO UNLESS YOU ARE READY TO HAVE SURGERY RIGHT AWAY.

Staff is INCOMPETENT. Medicare patients are all on one day. TYPICALLY wait 2.5 hours for a 9:00 appointment. Doctor sees you for only 30 seconds, I timed it! Medication prescriptions are NEVER refilled on time. After seeing him for 5 years I gave up. I actually liked him as a person and surgeon but I cannot put up with all this.

The problem is not with the doctor. The staff is absurdly incompetent. They lie to cover themselves and blame others for not doing their job. They don't know who you are from one minute to the next, are disorganized, and days behind on everything. I think they schedule twice as many patients in a day as they should, thus leading to intolerable wait times. I will continue with this doctor through this injury, but unfortunately, I don't have time to train his staff and do their job for them, so I will have to find another doctor for any other issues.

Very good doctor.I had knee pain and after his initial evaluation Dr Taba did not recommend surgery but gave me a cortisone shot to see if that would correct the problem.Only when that didnot work did he schedule surgery.Surgery went very smoothly and I am now pain free.Dr Taba did an excellent job in explaing what he was going to do and the steps required for my recovery.I am very satisfied with Dr Taba.

I was the second patient to arrive that morning,45 minutes later the doctor showed up and I got to wait another half hour before I was let back to an exam room. 15 minutes later the doctor walked in, barely said a word, did not make any eye contact, and walked out after 5 minutes and forgot his promise to do more xrays and check for developing arthritis. On other visits I have waited a long time but this was the worst, and the least helpful he has been. He did let me get away without having surgery though and I appreciate that.

Listens and uses patient input. Spends adequate time explaining options and effects. Starts with conservative options and escalates treatment depending on outcomes. Leaves surgery as last option when all else fails. Excellent surgeon with timely and caring follow-up.
