I have always had a good experience with Dr Owsley
Seeing him fie bother knees. I didn't have alot of questions but if I did he would have taken the time. I have come to accept the wait is usually long. The staff is very helpful with my issues. I would highly recommended this office and Dr O

We had an appointment at 9:00am. The doctor ran late due to a last minute surgery assist and got seen at 9:30am. No issues with this as you cannot control time in surgery. The issue with this doctor lies in his attitude. He was sarcastic because he could not understand our injury description. He asked a question and because we did not give a quick answer, he responded with, "This is not a game show." It came out of his mouth that he is rushing us because he is behind. Not our problem.

Simply the best. He is honest, kind, and skilled at what he does. He operates on other surgeons, athletes, the therapists, and hospital staff. Its who the 'insiders' go see. I saw two other shoulder surgeons. Dr. O spends time, explains the problem and possible solutions. My shoulder went from non functional to amazing! Well worth the wait.

I read the reviews before coming to had high hopes. This dr meet those hopes and impressed me even more. He told me his thoughts, answered my questions with no judgement, listen to me & spend a good amount of time with me. He got a great bedside manner. This type of service, the wait no issue.

Dr. O was extremely hurried, gave minimal answers with NO edification regarding my pain, did not return to the exam room for my questions and I was "excused" by a new-hire before being able to ask for clarification (& I'm not shy and retiring!).
I asked for the PA (?) to call the next day, then again the next day and never received a return call. I did not get my "money's worth" & I'm still in pain. Other than the diagnosis of a bone-on-bone knee, I'm still left wondering about my hip pain.

Dr. Owsley is one of the kindest and most honest doctors you will have the pleasure of working with. He has been instrumental in making sure a friend of mine who was hurt in an accident has the proper care, and he goes the extra mile for referrals. He doesn't waste time on needless treatments either. The waiting time in the office is terrible (usually 1+ hours behind on appointments per visit...and I don't have a lot of time to waste), but I guess "all good things come to those who wait!"

-David Radel in Rancho Santa Fe, CA | Jun 16, 2016
I went to Dr Owsley for second opinion regarding ankle syndesmosis injury. First Othopedic surgeon I went to said that I did not need surgery. Dr. O disagreed with the first Orthopedic Surgeon and recommended that I have ankle surgery immediately if not sooner. He referred me to an ankle specialist, but the surgeon was outside of my coverage. He and his staff have help me navigate through the referral process to get a qualified ankle specialist for this surgery.

Dr. Owsley was precisely the doctor I'd always hoped I would have if I ever needed it.
His bedside manner was impeccable while still telling me how it was; exactly how it should be. He was compassionate when I was scared I that I might not walk again and really worked to make me feel like everything was going to be okay. I can't give this doctor higher praise.
He sometimes runs a little behind in appointments but from my experience it's because he's taking the extra time with his patient.
