Customer Reviews about Dr. Brian Korte

• ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪
  Dr. Korte is one of the best. He was my doctor for over 10 years. It broke my heart recently when I found out from WellMed that his office would no longer except AvMed. It is very hard to find a good patient/doctor relationship that works. He fussed and I was hard headed most times but we understood each other. Some people don't get his personality he makes jokes sometimes, gives analogies, no nonsense, down to earth and he is truly concerned about his patients well being and making sure they are educated and gives them the tools to educate themselves regarding health issues. I am going to miss my doctor :(

  My info: I am a female in my late 30's. I have been seeing Dr. Korte for at least 10 years if not longer. He listens and responds appropriately: I had been to MANY doctors for all sorts of medical concerns that run the gamut, but not one of them was willing to sit down and TALK to me. Dr. Korte will explain things in great detail and allows me to ask questions of him; I NEVER get a feeling like I am being rushed. Dr. Korte is the ONLY doctor that correctly diagnosed my Metabolic Syndrome/Syndrome X and Stein Leventhal Syndrome - one of which my gynecologist should have diagnosed as it is a female issue and affected my fertility! I had been to several doctors over the years that just said, "You need to lose weight" and generally treated me like I was making my symptoms up. I have never had a problem with him changing prescriptions if I needed. More times than not, he is the one suggesting a change or alternative if a treatment is not working to my satisfaction (sleep medicine dose, etc.) Dr. Korte has several times recommended books, has given me print outs on my particular issues, or has actually shown me exercises that can alleviate issues. He goes above and beyond the norm, and believe me I have been to MANY doctors! Professionalism/Bedside Manner: Dr. Korte is always professional. I could care less whether he wears jeans to the office (as stated in a review above); it seems that only the older patients that are not use to how things have changed in the work place are concerned with such things. His appearance is always neat and professional - jeans or not (btw, I have been there many times when he is wearing khakis or some other dress-like pant.) He is a straight-forward person and will provide you with plenty of facts. Dr. Korte is always willing to listen and always willing to explain things in great detail! Sometimes he doesn't look directly at you when talking, but by the shear amount of information he is giving, I always chalk it up as him thinking as he is talking. It never comes off as being rude. He really does have a wealth of knowledge about just about everything under the sun, and he likes to share it and share about the research he is doing. I really like that this is a doctor that not only is doing his day to day duties, but in his spare time is actually researching and studying and enjoying still learning about his field. He knows his stuff and is active in keeping up to date on the latest and greatest and researching to see if it is beneficial for his patients. It is rare to find a doctor who wants to take the time to educate his patients. Office Staff: The nurses are always super friendly. The front desk staff can be "cold" at times. The wait time is never extremely long, but is typical of doctor offices. Sometimes I am seen almost immediately, sometimes I have to wait. I don't think in all my time going there that I have ever had to wait more than 30 minutes in the front. Of course sometimes I have to wait a little bit in the back for the doctor, but it never seems real long. I'd rather wait and get a doctor that will sit and talk to me at my appointment than to wait forever and then get a doctor that rushes me. ;) Making appointments has never been a problem. The waiting area up front is clean and inviting... none of the fluorescent lighting or cold feel you get from other doctor offices. The seats are comfortable and the decorations are always nice. There is a TV in the waiting area and it looks more like a living room than a doctor office. I like that feeling. Now, once you get into the back area for the actual appointment, it looks and feels like a doctor office - which I like. It always seems moderately clean, and the staff seems to be mindful of keeping things sterile and clean. Additional: Dr Korte has been instrumental in helping me with many health issues: weight loss program, physicals for foster care requirements, infertility, sleep issues, etc... He is very knowledgeable about many areas and will not hesitate to refer you to a specialist if needed.
