Dr. Alan Bruce Korbett, DO

Very experienced and compassionate. My life has changed in literally one week! So grateful I found him.

Very knowledgeable, compassionate and understanding. Finally a real Dr!!!

I feel worse about my situation now than I did before I visited this place. TERRIBLE experience. Rude staff. Unprofessional in every single aspect.

I typically don't write reviews for anything, but feel like it's important to weigh in on this practice. We went to Dr. K for about 7 years, and were never happy with either the doctor or the practice. For Dr. K: He did not talk to my daughter, only to me, even when my daughter was an older teen. And he continually called me, "Mom". Although medications were not effective, he didn't explore more avenues. We didn't ever spend more than 15 minutes in a visit. When we had a major crisis, he did not make himself immediately available. The office atmosphere is unpleasant, waits are often 30-60 minutes late, and trying to get someone on the phone is an exercise in great frustration.

Dr Kobett is very caring and easy to talk with. He has a lot of knowledge on the subject of ADHD, especially in young people

We have been coming to see Dr. Korbett for over 7 years. He is an excellent physician who listens to his patient and my daughter does not want to change due to the staff being so rude to her especially who is now 24 years old and very knowledgeable of her condition. She is cooperative and comes all the way from Atlanta at the Cobb County line where she holds a successful job after graduating from college. But the way the staff talk to her so negatively and dismissive is disappointing for such a good physician that I would not be surprised that some who could benefit from such good service have left or never came due to the first impression on the phone left by the office staff.

My son very much enjoyed when he got to visit with Dr Korbett, but as a parent I just could no longer handle the rudeness and unprofessional conduct of his office staff! To say the office staff is not customer focused is an understatement! In no way did I feel helped,by them, only a major run around! Heaven forbid you need anything but scheduling a standard appointment or paying them! Call backs takes days!! All I basically talked to was an answering machine! I shared my concerns with Dr. K and told him if it occurred again I was leaving his practice! We now have a new doctor! After canceling for the snow day I was attempting to reschedule and after three days of calling got someone! The lady I spoke with told me he busy he was and booked well out! I said I understood and then needed his ADHD medicine prescription! He was down to less than a week now! She told me I could not get it without an appointment! After several very loud sighs ( by her, not me) she offered me two times… where my son had a dental and orthodontist appt! She then told me how uncooperative I was being, how all she had to do was attempt to accommodate me and suggested I cancel his other appointments if I really wanted his medication! Yes, those were her words! Without confirming I had an appt she just put me to a refill line that takes three to five days to fill! Never have I see them offer help! Sad because we really liked the doctor .

I think some of you really should consider the fact that the practice has 6 providers and limited staff. They have a very very high volume of patients to keep up with and let me tell you it's not the staff's fault when the doctor is behind. It's the doctor's fault. My family are all patients of Dr. Korbett and are pleased with him. He is a VERY busy doctor and doesn't kick patients out of his office because it's time for the next patients appointment. As far as the staff keep in mind that the staff works for the doctors, not the other way around. Do you want your appointment abruptly ended when you have questions to be answered just because it's time for the next patient? Likely not because complaining people would be angry with that too. I've come to the conclusion that some people are going to be angry no matter what. I've seen patients rip into the staff for things that the staff have NO control over. I see this almost every time we are in his office. They take a beating from rude… and nasty people. In case people haven't realized there is a shortage of these types of doctors and after talking with some of the different staff members they consistently have 10 to 20 new patients walking in their door a day on average. If you people don't like the office then go somewhere else and quit whining. I look at it this way, and try to tell the poor frustrated abused staff that they just need to remember who these other patients are... it IS mental health after all.

I saw where Dr. Korbett got bad reviews and I feel Dr.Korbett has been severly misjudged. I took my son to Dr. Korbett and my son has a mental illness. Myhad son with several doctors which not one out of 5 helped my child till we saw Dr. Korbett. I was strained from knowing my son was so ill and the medical bills had risen so high I could not pay for medication for my son.. Dr. Korbett put my son on the right medication which for the first time ever my son was getting to have a better I ife. This Doctor even made calls which helped me get the medication free. He gave my son a chance at life. But I remember Dr. Korbett had so many children and adults coming to see him I I had tto wait a little longer but with most Doctors this is the norm. This Doctor was has alot of patients. If I u stop and think about that it should tell you how wonderful he is or he would nit be booked up as he is . I know he was very giving ofvhis time and gave my son a new lease on life. I have… recommended this Doctor to so many people and all ofvthembhave called andvthanked mr. I also want to add that thevpeople who may not be happy with their visit need to consider that he is one Doctor who does see a tremendous amount of patients and he personally has hundreds of charts I to go over before the staffvgets them and files them back. Dr. Korbett is worth seeing and he is worth the c wait. I will forever be grsteful

Do not expect a call back! What a joke!!
