Millstein, MD > Dr.Millstein and his staff are top notch. Dr Millstein performed knee surgery on me about 7 years ago. Our kids have also seen him a few times for sports related foot and ankle issues. Highly recommend for kids and adults. Just took my son in AGAIN--both our kids are pretty active (one is in a travel sport) and tend to have flare ups--sprains etc. We feel it's always best to get the best professional opinion. Glad Dr. Millstein is able to fit us in and help! W.

Millstein, MD > THE BEST EXPERIENCE EVER! As one begins to explore replacing a knee it can be scary and brings on a lot of apprehension and questions. I started my search in YELP and did a lot of comparison and review reading. After all, you're replacing an integral part of your body and if not done right can leave you crippled. I ended up selecting Dr. Millstein for an appointment. Dr. Millstein was very straightforward, informative and organized. I felt comfortable with him right away. He gave me my options and I decided to move forward. Appointments were made. His office kept me informed and sent me documents and information when needed. > > The big day arrived. I had the normal fear and nervousness one gets prior to surgery and he talked to my wife and myself at length and answered all questions. We both felt much better. Needless to say he did a great job. I'm sure I came out of surgery with the best pain control possible. Cedar Sinai hospital was clean, efficient and very friendly. (Which you don't get the friendly part in most hospitals). > > I would recommend Dr. Millstein to anyone without hesitation. HE'S A GREAT SURGEON. Dr. Millstein, thank you for the new knee!! > R.

Millstein, MD > Dr Millstein is an excellent doctor. I have seen him for a range of problems over the past 5-6 years including hip, knee and related issues. He's direct and explains things clearly -- and is never condescending! I frequently recommend him to friends and colleagues. Additionally, his staff at the front desk and the technicians are all friendly, professional and efficient. Recently, the front desk found a way to squeeze me in for an appointment because I was experiencing pain, even though the schedule was unusually packed as Dr Millstein had been in vacation. I recommend him most highly! On top of all of the above, he's a great guy! R. T.

Dr. Millstein was candid, competent and clearly had my best interests at heart in recommending treatment that was consistent with my diagnosis. He wanted to improve my quality of life without "upselling" me into procedures that might be good for some, but didn't address my problem. He's a courteous, insightful decent medical professional. I highly recommend him. D.
