A bit frustrated by the office as I scheduled an appointment 2 weeks in advance and was told my insurance covered my appointment (Anthem EPO; just FYI, they do take PPOs, but not EPOs), and I was not notified until I arrived that my insurance would not cover the appointment. I should have confirmed with my provider, but it's hard not to trust the people with experience at the front desk. Nevertheless, Dr. Millstein still saw me and didn't charge me. I only had a minor tendon injury in my foot, so it wasn't much to diagnose and for him to give me some basic advice, but I still found the fact that he would see me despite the mistake a sign of good character and a good doctor. He also offered to look at a list of orthopedists my insurance covers (from the Anthem site) and give his rec, something I thought was a good way to make up for the mistake. These things happen, and I think it speaks volumes as to how this practice is run that they did the best to accommodate me despite the confusion of our insurance system in this country, hence the 5 stars.

Dr. Millstein has been my go-to doctor for my aches and pains. While he specializes in knee and shoulder issues, I know he’ll find the right option for me. I like him and trust him.

Dr. Millstein is a wonderful doctor. I went to him for knee replacement surgery, as well as for his opinion regarding rotator cuff surgery. He suggested that no surgery was necessary at this time. I trust Dr. M and his opinions.

Second acute orthopedic need. Calling Dr. Millstein was a no-brainer. Didn't matter that I am in-between insurance coverage, he gave me a great deal on the visit and said if I need to have surgery, he will help me find a doctor in-network that he would talk to about what I needed and make sure I was in good hands. What doctor goes above and beyond like that? This guy is everything you could want in a doctor - can you put a price on that peace of mind?

In my first visit with Dr. Millstein I was immediately able to gain peace of mind. Not only was the x-ray technician and staff incredibly pleasant and efficent but, the images were immediatly available for the doctor to analyse and discuss with me. Dr. Millstein's professional expertise and down to earth communication skill is only supassed by his kind interaction with me as a patient.

I just had my pre op apt with Dr Millstine, he is absolutely amazing. Was very thorough and honest on how he felt about my knee injury. I have a torn ACL and Meniscus. He gave me two scenarios as to what will happen during surgery, I feel very confident with both. Drs office is clean and beautiful, staff is very sweet and very helpful. I highly recommend him to anyone having Orthopaedic issues.

Dr. Milstein as both compassionate and confident and his expertise. The office is very clean and pleasant and the doctor himself and all the nurses and staff are kind caring and attentive.

I've been seeing Dr. Millstein for almost 10 years now. Not every day of course. And not every year either. Within those 10 years, there could be stretches of 3 or 4 years where I didn't need to see him at all. However, when I do need to see Dr. Millstein, it's always a stellar experience. The combination of his hip sense of humor along with his superb skill honed over years of practice make for one of the best doctors I've ever had. The 2013 knee surgery and 2016 shoulder replacement were both amazing. Yes, he's not the only doctor who could've done this for me but I can't imagine I could've been in better hands. My visit yesterday was a follow-up. He went over x-rays with me and explained everything in a way that my non-medical brain could comprehend (as he always does). I'm confident every patient of his walks away believing they are his favorite patient. He is simply the best in L.A. Yes, I realize that's a bold statement considering I haven't met every orthopedic surgeon in the city but I stand by it all the same.

I’m a physical therapist and struggling to be the patient now after tearing my rotator cuff. Dr. Millstein got me in quickly for a consultation and made me feel confident that I will be able to get back 100% to my very physical work and all the sporting activities I love! Thank you!

Very thoughtful and professional. Trust Dr. Millstein!

Dr. Millstein is very patient and professional. He is humble and takes his time. I was a new patient and was referred to him by another patient of his. I have seen many doctors in LA and many of them do not treat you like the customer rather you should be thankful you are seeing them. This is NOT the case with Dr. Millstein. He is appreciative you choose him and advises you on the best care for your issue. He is also on time and easy to talk to. I would recommend seeing him if you want a doctor you can trust!

I just can say that it was a wonderful experience. His staff is very helpful the wait was less than 10 minutes but what is more important is that he is a very knowledgeable doctor. He will listen to your questions and explain them thoroughly . I had a knee dislocation and the MRI results were not very good but he was able to detect a mistake in the reading and gave me peace of mind. He has great bed side manners and is a compassionate and caring doctor. I was referred to him by Dr Sunu Alhluwalia also an excellent doctor but since he was out of network and I need surgery he referred me to him. I don't have enough words to say the peace I feel after visiting him. I have tear tendons and will need surgery. I trust that my recovery is going to be just fine with him. Finding a orthopedian surgeon is a challenge particularly when mobility is at stake. I am glad I found him.

Great experience with Dr. Millstein. I had a ruptured Achilles Tendon (aka, the Kobe Bryant injury) and was fortunate enough to be referred to Dr. Millstein by an anesthesiologist friend. Injured on Saturday, I saw him on a Monday and had surgery that Thursday. Good follow up from him and his staff. Great bedside manner, confident but not cocky, and he set realistic and practical expectations right from the get-go. I'd recommend him to anyone who is injured and seeking the best surgeon.
