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.

Highly recommend
Dr. El Kareh is incredible. I saw her for the first time today and have never felt more comfortable with any doctor, let alone an Obgyn. She is knowledgeable, patient, and she made sure to thoroughly explain everything to me. I understand now why her appointments book up so fast. Highly recommend!

Dr. El Kareh convinced me to deliver my baby early due to complications that her team/practice identified before I even sensed anything wrong. Her no nonsense approach and leadership of the hospital's team of delivery nurses is surpassed only by her warm and compassionate demeanor during follow-up care. Wait times could be long at appointments, but prob because she spends as much time as it takes for each patient to be comfortable. I owe my child's super healthy life to her & her colleagues!

Dr. El Kareh is not just a wonderful doctor but a very nice person. I feel extremely comfortable during exams. I have a high-risk pregnancy and had a few situations where she accommodated to see me on an urgent basis. She understands the anxiety and stresses of women. Thank you for taking care of me doctor.
