Orthopedic Institute of Santa Barbara - Santa Barbara (CA)

Margaret Smith Crocco Dr. Birch is a terrific surgeon with first-rate skills, deep knowledge of the research, and a friendly bedside manner. Recovery and results from my operation couldn’t have gone more smoothly. The entire Alta operation is supportive, efficient and welcoming. Having seen three doctors there, I have recommended the practice widely.

Melanie Carmody I cant say enough positive things about Dr. Rashti. He was covering for my OB who was out of town when a terrible C section incision infection appeared. He communicated with me clearly, made himself available, and worked with the staff at the hospital to see me. He addressed the medical issue and got me on the path to recovery immediately - I was lucky to have him care for me during a very stressful and painful time.

Rosemarie Perez Omg I highly recommend Dr Howard !! He is the best I had a thyroiectomy and I was scared and very nervous and he explained every single thing about my surgery and what to expect and answered all my questions I felt very safe with him and the end results were absolutely amazing I dont have a big scar and the whole surgery experience was also amazing my pain level was not even that bad !! Again thank you Dr Howard u are the best !!

Miguel Alvarado It was so nice walking in there. Everyone is really friendly and they give you a smile right away as soon as you walk in doctors and receptionist are so amazing very nice and polite. With a happy face right away they offered to help you.

Alex Aguirre Absolutely love her and her team! Had some insurance issues with the surgeon that was going to do my surgery originally and I swear it was a blessing in disguise! Her and her team are absolutely amazing from the consultations to the second you leave the hospital! 10/10 amazing and I totally recommend her.

Breda Wall Recently was advised by my GP to go to emergency room at cottage on the tuesday before Thanksgiving and albeit an unexpected visit and out of an abundance of caution I took myself there . I was treated with caring and respect from the nervous moment I went through the doors by every member of the cottage hospital/ Dr.Mills team. What a fine job you do every day ..frontline heros that thankfully I do not encounter on a usual basic. I am thankful for the care and the outcome. Breda

Carrie Ransome I received the best care and attention you could ask for and I didnt even know there was a hospital in Santa Ynez. From the security gentleman who was right there when we pulled up offering assistance to the triage department who were kind and super efficient I was blown away with the kindness and care. Then once in a room it just got better. My nurse was helpful and super caring to the 2 attending Drs in which their knowledge and experience showed and made me feel so cared for and in good hands. The radiology techs were top notch and super informative with tests I have had before yet never have been given the proper information like this. Hoping I dont need an emergency room or hospital in the near future but for sure feel safe knowing they are there to help. Great place!!!!
