DAVID
Very great experience. Staff at check in was great and really nice and helpful. X-ray tech was great. Jordan and Dr Eifler were very knowledgeable and wanted to get me back to normal ASAP. I go back for a follow up in a few days. Feel like I made a good choice with picking this office.
MONICA
Everything when fast and smooth. Happy to see again all the staffs and Specialty doctor almost about 2 y. I do trust dr. Eiflers work or opinions about my injury and that’s is why I will keep seeing him if I need too.
CHARLES
As always the service was great. Dt. Eifler took time to discuss and explain. Jordan gives an almost painless shot in the knee.

Once again Dr. Eifler proved his value to me . My last visit showed care, professionalism, and a thorough evaluation of my needs . There isn’t a better Doc in the Valley! He’s never too busy to provide personal attention & he never fails to make me feel “singular” in his busy practice.
Jami
Dr Eifler and team are outstanding! He fixed my shoulder last year and recently repaired my knee. Dr E is no nonsense, goes way above and beyond to help, is highly skilled and genuinely cares. I will not go anywhere else and am truly fortunate to have found such an amazing team.
Torrance
The Dr was very personable, and took the time to explain the situation. The office is nice and welcoming, and I did not feel rushed, as if he was tryong to pack in as many patients as he could on a day.
CATHERINE
I arrived a bit early and was taken back right away to be seen. I appreciated the promptness. I also appreciated the information provided on where I should be in my healing and suggestion to help it along.
TORRANCE

Awesome experience,I was well informed before my knee scope and also after. Received a phone call From Dr.Eifler the night of my scope and also a call from his office the next day. Communication means everything,when getting a surgery,even when it’s a scope.

MICHELLE
From the moment I walked in until the moment I left everyone was amazing. I have a lot of health issues and have been through a lot of surgeries and procedures over the years. This was the best care I have received from beginning to end. Everyone was super friendly, informative, and made me feel that they genuinely cared. I would recommend them to anyone. I just want to say thank you to everyone.

Wonderful office staff! Prompt replies to phone or web contact and Dr. Eifler is a straight to the point, no nonsense kind of Dr. which I greatly appreciate as it is becoming a scarcity in today’s managed health care system.

Like a DRS Visit Should Be Dr. Eifler’s office was very efficient. The new patient paperwork was quick and not redundant. X-ray was quickly done in the office and soon afterward Jordan an Dr. Eifler saw me and gave a professional assessment. This was my best Dr visit experience in my life. Very efficient office. Keep up the good work!
Cesar
Any time surgery is a success it's a good day. They went over the procedure and what was expected. Dr Eifler performed the surgery successfully and after two weeks I went back. He looked at the knee gave me further instructions and answer all my questions. The other thing I liked was he gave you a call later at night to make sure everything was ok. He even called back days later after we had a few concerns. I would definitely recommend Dr Eifler.
SHARON
Service was fast and medical staff genuinely care for their patients. They call back quickly and Dr. Eifler was accessible too via cell phone. So awesome to be able to talk directly to him.
