Tauber Jacob E MD

I am Dr. Tauber’s patient at the Beverly Hills office. He is an intelligent, engaging person and brilliant orthopedic surgeon, with a delightful sense of humor. The office staff is courteous and professional, always helpful with the required documentation.

I sincerely wish that we would have more doctors like Dr. Tauber.

Written 5 weeks post surgery:
I feel like royalty because Dr. Tauber is the Leonardo da Vinci of surgeons. Not only is the knee pain free but a month later is healed and shows his work with the smallest incision possible that has joined perfectly and looks beautiful. I’m grateful for the many fun appointments over a 7 year period in a cheerful and uplifting atmosphere that Dr. Tauber and his staff provide.
Written the day after surgery:
R-​tibia & knee surgery deluxe on 12÷18÷15. I’m up and about with no pain. Thank you Dr. Tauber, Aurora Marin and the staff at his Beverly Hills location where I was a patient for 7 years while my case settled, were exceptional and very professional and caring. At Wilshire Surgi-​Center my surgery went well despite his first patient being late and throwing the schedule off. Dr. Tauber truly is the orthopedic surgeon’s surgeon.

Two hour waiting for the most horrifying experience. Dr. Tauber is VERY aggressive, yelled at me for «not listening» when I questioned his «you need surgery» without even taking a look at my MRI. He threw big words at me and when I asked him what it means, he was condescending and even went as far as telling me to «do my research». My gut feeling told me to run. And run out the door I did… in tears.
I talked to my doctor about Dr. Tauber’s «quick to jump to surgery» approach, confirming my suspicion. Even the «conservative care before resorting to surgery» is set up for failure since Dr. Tauber does not do the usual procedure that is less painful and works. Oh he only does the really super expensive procedure — that I found out later is very painful and lower success rate. And by the way, «if» only that fails does he do surgery.
My advice: stay away from this office unless you have any desire to be used at the expense of your well-​being.

Hands down an exceptional Orthopaedic and even a better person. Dr. Tauber was able to see my on short notice, as I was in a lot of back and knee pain. Staff members all were very polite and warm. Doctor spent time looking at my MRI results and help answer all my questions. Highly recommended!

I have been a patient of Dr. Tauber’s for 15 years. When I was a teenager I had an accident requiring orthoscopic knee surgery on both knees. This was a workers comp case that was denying that I even had a problem. He got me the medical care I desperately needed & I went on with my life. 15 years later I came back because my right knee was giving me major issues and I had orthoscopic knee surgery in February and again all went perfectly. In June of that year I woke up with horrible neck pain & partial paralysis going down my right side. Even though I had only seen Dr. Tauber for knee issues, I had such faith in him, I went for my neck & was sent for an emergency MRI, resulting in emergency anterior cervical spinal surgery a few weeks later. I mention this b/​c not only did Dr. Tauber send me to a specialist but he followed up with me even though he wasn’t performing my surgery, to insure I received the best care. I will always appreciate this!

Terrible communication by front desk. I made an appointment at 230 and its 316. It’s not so much the waiting. It’s the lack of communication only for the doctor to see you for 2 and half minutes. I give them 1star only because they refer you to good specialists. Zero stars for the office itself. Smh. I put my phone in pocket because I wasn’t going to submit the review but it is now 330…

dr tauber is awesome, his staff is awesome, and like larry h parker he fights for you and wins. i’m having my rt knee totally replaced hopefully right after xmas, it was denied and he had an automatic appeal file with the orginal request which saved me a lot of down time. he appealed on 9/​24/​and it was approved on 10÷27÷14
so he saved a lot of time by doing the right thing .i’m so happy my dr reffered me to him is has a great bedside manner and makes you feel specialat all times. god bless him for caring for his patients.

This was my first time visiting Dr. Tauber’s office. Let me get the one negative thing out the way first but it doesn’t effect my rating. That place is HUGE! I parked on the complete opposite side of his office because I had NO clue where to go. After about 20 hallways and being lost for 10 min. I finally ended up in his office. The lady at the front desk, in his office, was awesome and very personable. They are really down to earth in there and make you feel very comfortable. After about 10 mins, Dr. Tauber took a look at my injuries and was straight to the point. I had a few x-​rays done, he told a few jokes, was VERY informative and wrote me up to have a CT scan & MRI on my chest and shoulder. He offered me a recommendation on a physical therapist so hopefully she is as awesome as he is! I will definitely be going back to Dr. Tauber for any of my medical needs.
