Dr. Edward Horacio Bestard, MD

wonderful doctor

Not only did he not spend anytime explaining what he saw, but he also spent no time at all getting to know what happened or where my pain was. I felt ...

I pulled my abductor muscle in my left leg and scheduled an appointment with this doctor on a Tuesday, but the first available appointment was the following day. I arrived at the office filled out paperwork and then waited around 10 minutes in the lobby. I was then sent back to the examining room and continued to wait another 10-15 minutes. Once I saw the Doctor I explained how I had injured myself and my injury history. He then just groped my leg until I said ow. He then told me I had pulled my abductor muscle. He didn't offer any information at all on what to do concerning the injury until I prodded him for further information. Even then I had to ask repeatably for more information and he still failed to provide me with what felt like sufficient advice. Extremely unhelpful. After asking if I should consider going to physical therapy he failed to suggest or not suggest it. I asked for a suggestion on a local physical therapist and he gave me prescription papers for every local… physical therapist and said it really didn't matter where I went. This was perhaps the most unhelpful Doctor I've ever met. Wouldn't be surprised if he would not help someone in an emergency situation.

An awful man and an awful Dr. Beware of his groupon ad. What kind of foot surgeon has a groupon special?

This man is nothing more than a "hired gun" for workers comp Chubb insurance. Bestard used his hands to manually pushed down my head and then pushed my head to the left and right to do a so called test for movement. I screamed out in pain and he only mumbled sorry and wrote in his notes that I no longer need a lumbar diskectomy. He saw me for only 40 mins and did random tests where he manhandled me. Without even looking at any mri cds he goes against all 3 ofmy Real surgeons advice who say I do.

Dr Bestard is an excellent orthopedic specialist. He is a doctor who is patient and who will listen to your concerns and thoroughly explain your condition and possible treatments. I have had feet pain for years and now I have never felt better. I also was seen at my scheduled appointment time. I was back to work on time.

The best Dr and crew I have ever had.

Dr. Bestard is one of the greatest doctors I have ever had. He will go out of his way for a patient and make sure that you fully understand your specific healing needs. I have been a patient I his multiple times and he is a true professional. **GREAT DOCTOR**

I feel very fortunate to have had a Dr. That was able to fix my shoulder and hip. I was in a car accident and taken to Mission Hospital.my injuries were severe. I did so well with my recovery, my family cannot believe it! Thank you, Dr. Bestard!

I have known Dr Bestard for years. The people that made negative comments were probably seeking drugs for their "pain"...they are probably in chronic pain looking for any Dr. That will give them a prescription...
