Unfortunately after 8+ years with Dr. Colbert I transferred all medical records to another doctor. For the past couple of years she has had her husband Scott at her office, don't know what his affiliation is with her practice, but he is rude and has fired or forced all staff from the office. He lingers around the office doing some secretarial duties. I had an encounter with him last week regarding a prescription that was never called over to our pharmacy for my daughter (3rd time they have done this with her prescription and 2 times with my husbands). All I was trying to do was have them call Costco and clarify that her prescription was supposed to be called in and he got very angry with me and would not do it. Said it was Costco fault. He hung up on me 5 times. I finally had to call Costco and have them call Dr. Colberts. The pharmacy tech advised me that she would have her manager call because they have dealt with Scott in the past and the manager knows how to handle him. Since his presence has been in the office, I have noticed a considerable change - not only that the staff is completely gone - but even in her as a doctor. No nurse is present any more which means she calls you back to the room and doesn't even take vitals. Went in for a pain in my arm pit and was told it was my ribs?? No xray, ultrasound, nothing. I am seeing another physician today. I have several friends who have now left her practice and my sister is going through the same thing with her office as well and she is thinking of leaving as well.

The office is casual and comfortable. I see a comment about professionalism of staff and management. I know the husband does Laser procedures and management duties. The nurse and receptionist have changed over the years but the current staff is and management have been a pleasure. Dr. Colbert, who I love, of course may request staff to handle difficult patients. Can't please them all. In general, they were ready to see me when I showed up for my appointment. I never had to wait for them to show up. I love that they never cancel their appointments last minute here. I can always count on them to be there for me. They're really great about taking their time with me, and they don't mind answering my questions. I've never felt like an annoyance to them no matter how many questions I have. They make an extra effort to get to know their patients and find out what they need. They always remember me and make me feel very important. I've never had to worry about them being understaffed or not being able to help me right when I need it. They have a huge staff that's very knowledgeable and qualified.

Dr. Colbert has been my doctor for eight years but the last three years or so she has let her very unprofessional husband run her office. It's come to the point where he makes her decisions for her and this scares me and makes me rethink my trust in her office anymore.
In fact I have left 3 messages with her staff to have her call 2 were with her husband and still no return call.
