Amazing doctor! He listened and answered questions for 45 minutes on my first visit. Very knowledgeable with an excellent ability to communicate complex medical issues in layman's terms. He took me and my symptoms seriously and went above and beyond to diagnose me properly (no other doc had been able to to that thus far). I feel better than ever. Every visit since has just solidified my trust in him. I HIGHLY recommend him.

I have seen four endocrinologists, each of whom had something slightly different to tell me about my treatment for grave's disease. I was relieved to finally find Dr. Albright. He listened to me and was very knowledgeable about my situation. I like his dry sense of humor and his willingness to involve me in my own treatment (ie. when I had a bad reaction to synthroid, he took me off it at my request and tried another dye-free thyroid replacement drug, which has been fine). The only problem I've had is with his office staff. It is very difficult to actually speak to a person when you call, even if it's just to make an appointment. In addition, the new nurse they hired knew nothing about endocrinology, had never heard of grave's disease, and barely knew what a thyroid was. It was very frustrating to deal with her.

Best doctor I've had. He's extremely knowledgeable and thorough, as well as patient and friendly. I've been his patient for almost 3 years and feel great, thanks to him. I highly recommend.

Dr Albright has been treating me for thyroid cancer for a year. He is knowledgeable and always takes time to answer all my questions. His recommended treatment has always been the same as the Univ Cancer Center

Pompous and controlling -- scarey--my blood sugar readings wnet up to 275 from org 170 when diagnosed with Dia ii. Had me on Avandament. My own doctor calmed me down put me on insulin and blood sugars went down immediately and stayed down. His haughtiness precluded any idea of how I might know my own body as well.

Dr.Albright helped my husband with his diabeties very much, when he first went to him my husband was taking over 100 units of insulin a day, he's now down to 20 units a day. He's very caring and takes his time with you. He's a real good doctor.

Dr Albright is friendly and prepared. I have a complex thyroid disorder and he has been spot on the entire time with it, letting me know treatments and all options. The previous doctors I have seen for this just throw thyroid meds at you and tell you you're fine. Dr Albright went indepth with options and helped me to choose the best course of action, and the end result (Synthroid and Vit D) resulted in me feeling the best I have felt since my thyroid condition developed in my early 20's!

I have found this Dr to be extremely helpful with my type 2 diabetes control. He has motivated me to change my diet and better control my weight. His course of procedure and choice of medication have greatly improved my condition. I find him to be understandable and willing to discuss my problems in great detail. I have never felt rushed ordismissed in any way. He seems to be a genuinely "good guy" and truly concerned with my welfare.
