Bruce Obbink, MD

"The nurse was very friendly and kind."

"Everyone was respectful and helpful"

"Well, the man has a foul hernia and we're worried about it opting out and I had to call to get the appointment changed to a reasonable time and still we have to wait three months before surgery. That's not the doctor's fault. That means you don't have enough people on staff. Thank you. Bye."

"Wishing it wouldn't take until Oct.14th to have surgery on my hernia that is causing much pain and now unable to do any physical activity!!"

"Dr. Obbink is very professional and friendly. He explains everything in a way that is easy to understand. His staff members are friendly and very helpful."

"I've been seeing Dr. Obbink since 1999 and have never been disappointed!"

"All good"

"All questions answered. Excellent care."

"I wasn't in a hurry, so the appointment wait was fine, but it was like a 6 week wait."

"Everything went well."

"Everybody was extremely polite and courteous very easy to talk to"

"Last time I was at Medical Associated was 1999 with Dr. [REDACTED]. Same great ole place to take your troubles to & get them taken care of! Thank you!"

"After check in waited 45 minutes before called back for the exam. ?"

"It just seems like it takes a long time to get an appointment to have anything done or looked at. I wish that you could get in quicker to have things done and taken care of."

"I would like to know why the clinic has stopped their reminder phone calls because I think that was very helpful for anyone that's older. Our appointments are often made a year in advance and that reminder phone call helped us keep our appointment. That's the only thing I would like. I think that would be a much better thing to have for the clinic instead of these surveys that come each and every time we go in to see the doctor."

"Always a good experience."

"In December 2025 I was referred to Surgery for a colonoscopy. The first step was a consultation that was scheduled, then rescheduled by the provider to today. The procedure is now scheduled for October 30, ten months from the original referral. I am disappointed with the delay."

"Dr and staff explained the future procedure very well"

"Dr obbink and his nurse Allison did a great job! They are knowledgeable and kind."

"Dr Obbink was very kind and thorough. He has just become my surgeon after mine left , took a bit before I could see him but I am extremely pleased with him."

"Dr. Obbink went beyond expectations."

"Dr Obbink was very thorough and explained my coming procedure enough to allay any misgivings I might have had. Thank you."

"I feel when you are doing this exam - patients should be given gowns or something to make the exams more dignified. Just pulling down your pants in front of the nurse and doctor is embarrassing and degrading in my opinion. No paper was on the exam table and I feel that's disgusting. I expected better this day an age."

"Today went very well I met an intern who was very pleasant and helpful. Dr.Obbink checked me and discharged me but also said if I had any questions or concerns please call. Yes today was a great day. Dr did a great job! Thank you for everything!!"

"Dr. Obbink is a great surgeon whom I totally trust and feel like I get outstanding care!"

"Very professional doctor and nurse"

"They told me to go have a seat at labs so I did. I sat there for 30 minutes, so I went to surgery receptionist and she said dud you check in at labs. I'm like no I wasn't told that, was just told to go have a seat at labs. Checked in at labs and still sat there another 30 minutes. Lab tech came out and I'm like seriously. He had nothing on me so I say for an hour at lab waiting for container! Ugh!"

"Excellent"

"The dr was very kind and courteous."

"They are very kind and helpful!"

"The front desk needs more workers. Two people can't possibly answer non-stop phone calls and take admissions and schedule future appointments. There's always a wait for them to get off the phone"

"I was very happy with this initial appointment, but my real recommendation will be after I have the procedure and see how that all goes. All right, thank you. Everything else was good. But I did have to wait a long time to get the next appointment. Okay, bye."

"Barry courteous i'm very respectful great visit"

"Very informative. Excellent medical experience."

"They got me in 30 minutes early and I was done in <10 minutes!"

"I should have said something to the young man who was observing before we began. If I had known his age I would've probably said no to his observation. Dr. Obbink was careful as to how he proceeded and it was done well, but in retrospect, I would have done differently."

"We have the opportunity to rate the service we receive. I would like to know how I did as a parent. I don't want to be the reason any of your staff would consider leaving. Thank you [REDACTED]"

"Everyone was very nice, caring, compassionate and professional!"

"Dr. Obbink and his nurses were very knowledgeable and sympathetic regarding my Colonoscopy and my additional concerns concerning my stomach and esophagus issues. It's really nice to have people who really care about you and Dr. Obbink and his staff exceeded my expectations unlike other doctors at Medical Associates. Thank you very much. [REDACTED]"

"Dr Obbink is great!"

"Staff and doctors were awesome to bad veterans are hated by medical associates board and are no longer able to go there"

"Great as always."

"This appointment could have easily been done by phone. It was simply to schedule a colonoscopy - in late July. There was no need to have seen a Dr. or be charged an office visit. Very much a waste of time and expense."

"Excellent staff. The people who attended to me were extremely kind and professional, at least the nurses and the doctor. 10 out of 10."

"Yes, I had Dr. Obbink for surgery and he was very nice, kind, and thorough and it's actually the best surgery I've ever had and I just wanted to thank him for his care and the nursing staff. It was outstanding. Thank you."

"When my appointment gets rescheduled several times surely doesn't make the patient feel important. This check up Im sure is very important to everyone. I just showed up even though they were going to try and reschedule this again. Ashley had this schedule for me about a year or so ago n the sane thing happened so I didnt call back to reschedule for the 3rd and here we are again on rescheduling."

"Very Professional, Quick, and Very all around Nice Guy."

"It was very hard to find the office. I had to ask at 3 different places where I was going."

"Dr Obbink is the most wonderful surgeon I have met to this day. He doesn't seem hurried but straight to the point."

"Dr Obbink and his nurse Dawn were excellent. Dawn will be great missed as she is very knowledgeable and treats patients with such compassion"

"I have been seeing Dr. Obbink annually for 10 years. I would recommend him to everyone. Has always answered my questions and concerns"

"Everyone was friendly and seemed genuinely concerned before, during, and after my procedure."

"Great doctors & nurses"

"Dr Obbink is great. Efficient in his time yet listens and provides future outlook from his perspective while also making sure you're agreeable to the plan."

"Dr was willing to listen to me"

"Was good"

"The texting process you have for arrival seemed to work well and everyone was nice that I talked to. Only main problem is that I need surgery, and the Dr. told me he was 4 to 6 weeks out for scheduling and that the nurse would set an actual date. The nurse came in and said I can't get scheduled until March 25, 2026. Twelve weeks is way too long to wait and is a lot longer than what the Dr. said. Do I have any other options?"

"Dr Obbink was very friendly and professional. He answered all my questions and made me feel very comfortable. His nurse and the other staff were equally as friendly and professional."

"Thanks very much!"

"Excellent caring"

"Love Dr. Bruce Obbink and his staff!"

"Since this was the 1st time in this clinic, I was lost. Every receptionist (2) that I explained that I didn't know where to go, was so kind and helpful. As was staff at the Surdery counter where I had the appointment. Doctor and nurse were also very pleasant. Everyone was so helpful and understanding."

"First time there and was a good experience"

"Everything went very well."

"Dr. Obbink was very professional. It was a very good experience for me since I had been having physical problems. I am most grateful to Dr. Obbink. [REDACTED]"

"Dr. Obbink and his staff are very kind, compassionate people. He did excellent surgery on me many years ago and will be doing a procedure in the next month. Excellent doctor. Thank you."

"Treated kindly and with great respect???"

"Dr. Obbink and staff are the best!!!"

"All good."

"Dr. Obbink is excellent. I know that I can talk to him, ask questions and be heard. He explains everything and is very open and kind."

"My only concern is that the first opening for my colonoscopy is Jan. 2. That was disappointing because I am uncomfortable and would like answers. I know everyone is stretched thin though. Dr. Obbink did an exceptional job explaining what he thought was going on with my body. I would just like this confirmed sooner. I was added to the cancelation list, so my fingers are crossed."

"Nurse was extremely nice and helped put me at ease before seeing Dr. (I believe her name was Dawn- we appreciated her kindness)"

"Excellent care"

"I've known Dr. Obbink for probably close to 20 years. He's treated me before. I'm very pleased with his bedside manner and the way he treated me and trust him always."

"I have not one bad thing or complaint. My entire experience was positive and everyone I encountered was helpful and kind, knowledgeable, and pleasant."

"Dr Obbink & Dawn do an awesome job"

"Excellent!"

"Besides being kind and knowledgeable, Doctor Obbink treated me with respect. Valuable asset."

"Dr Obbink and his staff are wonderful. I think he is a wonderful doctor!"

"It was good"

"I appreciate how Dr Obbink took the time to have a discussion about my results and next steps/options. He addressed my concerns, and left an opening for more discussion if needed."

"Great experience-they were behind due to an emergency of some sort but the way they all dealt with it was extremely professional. Went out of their way to make sure I knew they were not rushing to get me in and out . Staff went above beyond to make sure it was a good appointment. Thank you all-surgical department and internal medicine??"

"Dr.Obink and his nurse Allison both listened to me about my concerns. I felt confident and comfortable in my decision and they were both reassuring in my decision . Thank you for all your support and encouragement."

"That department is very busy. There was only 2 receptionists at check in and the same girls did the rescheduling. They were very busy. There should be more help in the surgery department. Thanks"

"The Dr. Was in surgery at the time of my appointment. I was able to wait"

"Dr didn't seem to care - I thought he was having a bad day himself ' My facility nurses had to call his office a couple of times to get what he should have ordered for my treatment."

"I felt listened to and came home with a smile on my face. Thank you??"

"Great, as always!"

"I always trust Bruce with my health and wellbeing. I feel he takes the time to listen and cares about me"

"Thank you for your services."

"Dr. Obbink has performed 2 proceedures on me. Professional & Pleasant Attitude. Puts me right at ease knowing I am in good hands."

"Dr. Obbink answered my questions and gave me information i needed."

"Dr. Obbink and his nurses are excellent!"

"So much information, I might have missed something. Was good appointment."

"Everyone was kind and professional. They made me feel at ease. I would highly recommend Dr. Obbink and his office to anyone."
