Jul 12, 2023
Dr. Montalbo is a great guy. I would recommend him to anyone. He seems genuinely concerned and has a great bedside manner. He has ordered tests that I should have had and when I have an issue he immediately looks for a solution. My requests for prescriptions to be refilled by his office are done on the same day I request (during the week) I can not say enough good things about him.

This group make yo feel at ease and comfortable when visiting.
Jun 13, 2023
Felt very rushed and provider not allowing for patient to speak concerns slowly.
Jun 05, 2023
I am extremely pleased with UR Medicine in general. Have not had a bad experience yet.
May 30, 2023
[...] Generally, the doctor should be commended for his extensive experience generally. His follow up however, once I left, the office was remarkably swift, appropriate, and thorough. He did not comprehensively respond in my presence to the concerns and needs that I had, however, I began to receive unsolicited phone calls from collateral medical providers, who indicated that they were calling because of concerns I expressed to the doctor, that required additional referrals. There's a big piece missing, regarding interpersonal acknowledgment, of the services I might need, and to whom he would refer me very specifically. Receiving random phone calls from providers with whom I am not familiar with not very comfortable. And not what I'm accustomed to Regrettably, I expressed those concerns to the follow up staff, with the newly referred providers, which resulted in frustration all around. I am glad that the physician is thorough and I'm glad that he is detailed. I just wish I had a heads up about what he plan to do and with whom . That's the courtesy, and the piece that I am looking for as regards, quality and culturally competent care. Perhaps it's too big thing to expect from this region of New York state? But in my humble opinion, as a college, educated, healthcare, professional, I don't think so. I think it's a list Healthcare should be
May 29, 2023
[...] There has been no additional contact with the office. Just random referrals, follow up, calls from other providers, and assumptions that appointments are made without patient's input, feedback as regards to location of the practice, and little to no provision for in-depth information about what to expect from any provider, much less, indicating a preference from one over another. It is a relegation of indifference such that I've never experienced in my medical history. The actions completely remove the empowerment from the patient's choice and voice. It was pretty awful to be fair. And continues to be doubtfully Holistic.
May 29, 2023
Only negative comment at all would be that I had hoped for more preventative testing which wasn't ordered, i.e., heart health in particular.
May 28, 2023
Dr. Montalbo was professional and courteous, addressed all concerns and implemented referrals as warranted.
May 27, 2023
The service is exemplary [...].
May 27, 2023
Provider didn't want to discuss concerns I had. I was told to schedule an appointment which was not a problem. I would have liked him to at least listen to my concerns [...]
May 22, 2023
I felt talked at. The information was great but I would appreciate if my doctor would have a willingness to listen and appear to be concerned about what I have to say. I miss the two way relationship. [...]
May 22, 2023
Always shows compassion and understanding
May 13, 2023
It's is perfect.

This office is always responsive to MyChart - and has always taken care of anything I need. I ran very low on meds and they got it fixed for me!!!
May 11, 2023
Dr Montalbo is very down to earth and I am very comfortable discussing any issues with him.
May 08, 2023
The end of this year I will be leaving the practice since my husband and I are moving out of state. I hope that I am able to find a PCP that is as great as Dr. Montalbo.
May 08, 2023
We have a great working relationship and understanding of each other regarding joint effort in maintaining and improving my health. I love that

Mar 06, 2023
There was an intern who came into the room prior to my revaluation doctor. I wish my regular doctor would have asked my permission prior to her entering. It was awkward having her ask me directly. She was very nice and expressed/showed exceptional care. I felt more comfortable with her
Feb 22, 2023

Sep 25, 2022
Dr. Montalbo - he is very compassionate and support of my health journey!
Sep 11, 2022
Dr Montalbo, while super energetic and outward friendly, has a very condescending tone about him. He cares about my health, but if I don't listen to everything he says, he appeared agitated. He talks very fast and spoke over me many times. When I tried to share something he didn't agree with, he acted annoyed. I feel that he is just very quick to get me in and out of the office, who is a big talker, just to get onto the next person. There's only one way to put it. Fake. I thought things were going well until he started to act condescending when it came to medical information that I had researched and wanted to run by him. If it was convenient, I probably would switch providers. Sorry but it's the truth.
Sep 11, 2022
