Abramowitz Bryan L, MD

I have seen several Physicians in San Diego and Dr. Abramowitz truly cares about his patients and so does his staff. I had no issues with him or his staff. I received excellent care, and adored the front office staff and foud them to be friendly and kind, with a true sence of caring about my conditions. I even received a follow up call after my appointment to asure all was well.
This office is amazing!!! A+++

All I ever wanted from my primary care doctors was someone who was able to deal with basic health concerns and timely follow up on irregular labs/​tests. This doctor took the time to go through my labs with me and find out exactly who I might not be losing weight and reasons for my high blood glucose levels. 6 months later, I am still losing weight and have better blood sugar numbers. We need more people like him here in San Diego and fewer of the needy opinionated uncaring part-​timers who are only interested in prescribing you something you should not need had they been been doing their job properly in the first place by doing good follow up. Yes, he believes in Natural Medicine unlike some others who have a very narrow view about what healthcare is all about. Thank you Bryan Abramowitz MD, you do understand what the Hippocratic oath is all about and you put it into practice.

I just visited Dr. Abramowitz and I was thoroughly impressed. I HATE doctors, doctor offices, ERs, dentist offices, pharmacies, and anything else to do with medical buildings. The people are arrogant and condescending and the wait times are ridiculous. This was NOT the case with Dr Abramowitz! I felt welcomed by the receptionist, the wait time was short, and the doctor spent a good amount of time with me, answering all my questions, getting a thorough history, and telling me about what to expect.
I just broke my collar bone and needed to see Dr. Abramowitz to get a referral to an orthopedist. I was very hesitant seeing him (he was assigned to me by my health plan, I did not choose him), but I am very happy with him. Coming from Kaiser in northern California, seeing a doctor that spends time with you and actually wants to treat you is quite a new experience.
If you are looking for a primary care physician, give Dr. Abramowitz a try!

I rarely see a physician who is so full of himself. He acts concerned but is quick to leave. I had a drug reaction and became very confused. I was in the hospital awaiting a cardiac catherization but the medication I was given must have caused a reaction and I left against my will. No one seems to understand and now I am treated like a villain that no one wants to help. I guess I am destined to die an outcast. I cannot help myself and I really hate this. Why an educated doctor cannot understand that I am sick only to act against my best interest. Mental illness patients are left to die.

Given that this is the first endocrinologist I’ve had to see, I cannot compare Dr. A to anyone else. I will say that I would like more of an opportunity to voice my concerns without being sidebarred, or cut off, but this seems to be the norm with San Diego doctors. I will give him kudos for being open-​minded about alternative treatment modalities that other docs may really sniff at.
What I will say is that Mike M. was 100% correct that the front office girls are EXTREMELY rude, uncouth, and incompetent. Again, if you see my other reviews, I have had this experience with just about every doctors office I have visited in San Diego. I think it is just a West Coast thing (generalization intended, sorry!) Anyhow, on top of speaking to people in a condescending manner, they have jacked up on the billing a few times which ended in my husband having to argue our insurance company down. They have also gotten appointments crossed on a few occasions (i.e. told me it was on the 8^th and actually put the 18^th on the books), and then got angry when I pointed out the discrepancy. They also transposed my phone number, which resulted in me getting some very important lab results back 6 weeks late! When I mentioned this, they claimed they «left a message» and that I must not have gotten it, well, given that they had the wrong number, I’d say so!
Anyhow, I am a firm believer in exemplary customer service. Dr. A should be more cognizant of who he has representing him in his front office. Heck, I need to make an appointment now, and the phone keeps going to a fax, case in point!

I took my mother to see Dr. Abramowitz. Although he appears to be very knowledgable about medicine, he could use a little lesson in humility. He had a terrible bedside manner. I can appreciate sarcasm in a comedy act but not when it comes to my mother with dementia. He spoke to her like she was deaf and a 2 year old. I am going to have my mother continue to see him in the hopes that he will understand that his patients are «people first.» I have had to deal with many health care professionals and no one has ever talked to my mom that way. Maybe he just had a bad day, everyone has them, right?

I need to lose weight and was looking for suggestions and also needed to have a simple exam to know how I am doing. Dr. Abramowitz is very kind and thorough. He answered questions and it turned out that my thyroid function is too low so I am going to get something to help with that. In addition he talked about living a healthy lifestyle with a healthy diet, sufficient exercise and working to reduce stress in my life. If you live in San Diego, please check him out. He is in Clairemont.
Dr. Abramowitz is very knowledgable about wellness and healthy living in addition to being an excellent internal medicine doctor. I highly recommend him for anyone wanting an honest doctor and to make healthy changes to their life. I am determined now to exercise more and see where that takes me.

I’ve seen Dr. Abramowitz several times and have been very happy with him. After having been through several primary care physicians, I can say that Dr. Abramowitz has been the best on several accounts.
His young appearance can be deceiving (he looks 20), yet he has a lot of experience and a very pragmatic approach to his diagnoses and treatments. Office wait times are minimal (I’ve never waited more than 10 minutes from my appt time before I see the Dr.) and his staff is friendly.
Overall, he does a great job of explaining his diagnosis, the available options for treatment, his recommended treatment and why he recommends that particular treatment.
