Dr. Brian Howard Hallgarth, MD

I agree with the other reviewer that Dr Hallgarth is cold and detached. I had complications after surgery. He never made contact with me. He left one leg shorter than the other after hip surgery. His comment in looking at the xrays was: I've never seen that before. Can't do anything about it. I now need revision surgery and face complications again because of his low quality work.

Dr Hallgarth is a very good at what he does, however is cold and detached. My surgery was under L&I and I was a self employed independent contractor. Dr Hallgarth couldn't seem to grasp that I paid to go to work and was a 1099 employee. He was quick to release me to light duty. I told him I'm self employed and just work under a brokers license. I tired to tell him either I can do the whole job or nothing. He said he can't fix the problems in the Middle East. He's milk toast. Find another doctor that can communicate and that listens to you.
