Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Best of the Best
Dr Umberhandt has seen both of my boys for minor fractures and injuries. His medical treatment and attention has been top notch. A few months ago, my son faced a major injury and Dr Bob Umberhandt saved my son's leg. His immediate fast acting treatment is without a doubt the reason he still has a leg. Dr Bob cares for his patients and their healing success. He is a Dr to trust.

Bad bedside for kids
Very gruff, dry and nothing warm about him. During exam he was rude to my daughter telling her to give full effort as she was trying not to cry thru the pain. Pre-determined it was overuse, which was what was suspected, but after X-ray said she had a fracture in her growth plate. Pretty major, I had to “ask” for him to send her with a sling for her shoulder and he gave no feedback for the next 6 wks other than do absolutely nothing. But then when explained it hurt to write and type he said she can use her hand?! We left so annoyed at how rude he was and how little he cared about my daughters pain or being upset on the news he was delivering!

He was dismissive, bad bed side manners, and acted like I did not understand basic science when I brought up concerns. I got a x-ray during my appointment and I overheard him talking about me to another medical profession without my consent, and he was being dismissive as well. He said to me at the end of the meeting, “Sorry to meet you,” after a meeting where I felt he was also being passive aggressive throughout the whole time. I recommend Legacy, but not Dr. Umberhandt.

We have seen Dr Umberhandt for most of my daughter's life. He has been very sweet, funny, and thorough. He was recommended to us by a former patient who assured us he would be everything he has been. He has taken such great care with our daughter that he caught a very rare genetic condition in our daughter that several other specialists had missed. We trust him fully, he chose our daughter's safety over an easy surgery and we will be forever thankful!

He was/is an excellent Doctor! Very witty and helpful in calming my 6 year olds nerves about having an elbow surgery. He even had me laughing several times throughout our many different appointments. He made my son's traumatic experience that much more palpable. He did an excellent job on my son's surgery! I would highly recommend him!
