Dr. Bryan Abramowitz, MD

Sole practitioner who cares about his patients. Usually easy to get a prescription or relevant test from him. But I don't have a fear that he doesn't care and will just throw pills my way. Intelligently questions me about my complaints. He has not pushed therapy or treatment on me I didn't want. Have been going to him for several years. Had telephone appointments during covid.

Dr. Abramowitz has treated me as if he was treating a family member. He is thorough and inquisitive, reviewing past treatments before discussing any current issues. He also asks questions relating to mental health to ensure not only the “body” receives care, but the “person” (mind and spirit) is healthy as well. This method combines holistic and traditional methods which enables the patient to reach an optimum health status. Response to urgent matters is unmatched. His recommendations to specialists has been 100% on point. It’s as if he knows those specialists hold an equal holistic approach and the patient truly feels they are part of a community, instead of being pushed through an industry. It’s rare to find a primary care doctor practicing this way. Kendra (staff) is always helpful, friendly, and courteous. She conducts herself professionally while juggling numerous phone calls and in-person contact. She is thorough - responding to urgent needs with compassion, and responding with test results in a timely fashion. When she is the only staff member “on-deck”, her patience and efficiency is superior. She is an excellent extension of Dr. Abramowitz. I have witnessed Kendra multitask the phone ringing off the hook while attending to patients in the waiting area. She is able to do so professionally, never displaying stress or lack of patience. Her performance doesn’t end there as she also serves as an assistant to Dr. Abramowitz. This shows positive teamwork for a small office to handle a high volume of patients. The patient leaves feeling part of a family environment instead of just a number. Kendra serves both as an administrator and as an assistant to Dr. Abramowitz. When she accompanied me in the exam room, not only was she professional, she also touched my arm showing compassion which eased my nerves. When I’ve called with urgent concerns, she asks appropriate questions, provides clear advice, and when necessary communicates with Dr. Abramowitz for further information. On a previous occasion, she went above and beyond while scheduling an emergency scan.. Initially the receiving scheduler said it could not be done.. Kendra asked to speak to a supervisor.. When that didn’t work, she escalated her communication to the radiologist.. I was able to receive my scan the next morning. Again, this level of attention proves a successful team effort is working together to achieve a positive experience for the patient. Dr. Abromowitz and his staff deliver professionalism, kindness, knowledge, and compassion each and every time I visit. He is lucky to work with a team of specialists who also hold his high standard of care and ethics. I am lucky as a terminally ill patient to benefit from a communal holistic approach. I used to fear the medical establishment.. I no longer have this fear as a result of Dr. Abromowitz and his team.

He's a bit unconventional but extremely competent. He helped me fix a chronic condition that had been ailing me for 10+ years. Before Dr. Abramowitz, I'd seen a primary physician and also a specialist for this issue and neither of them could figure it out.

Good visit with the doctor. Knowledgeable and good communicator. Staff could have been more polite and respectful of privacy.

I have many medical issues and as such have dealt with many physicians since moving to San Diego. However, a physician is only as good as the staff in his/her office as it is the medical assistants I will be dealing with to schedule tests, get results, confer on insurance, etc. Dr. Abramowitz an excellent physician but it is the that same excellent quality of his medical staff that really impresses me. I do not have to double check is tests have been scheduled, etc. This is NOT true of all.

Friendly staff and supportive staff. The doctor listens to my concerns and provides excellent care and advice. I'm so happy that I found this office.

Very professional, thoughtful, with strong focus on health promotion and role of lifestyle in health maintenance. Answered all my questions. (Great role model for other health professionals too).
