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.

Cured confounding problem
During the third hospitalization in 6 weeks for the same symptoms, Dr. Al Hamda accurately diagnosed, patiently explained, successfully treated and instantly cured a neurotransmitter problem that no other doctor could figure out. He has a great personality, but that’s just a bonus.

Entered Two False Statements On My Records
Dr. Al Hamda visited me during the last week of my 5-week hospitalization. The first four weeks I was in ICU and put into a medically induced coma after a ruptured appendix turned gangrenous. Having never seen me prior to the last week of my hospitalization, he wrote in my medical chart that I was, “very disoriented and impulsive with a long history of untreated depression and ‘extensive alcoholism’”. I may very well been disoriented and impulsive. The medical staff was administering propofol (the drug that killed Michael Jackson) and Fentanyl two and three times a day for the four weeks I was in the ICU. However, Dr. Al Hamada’s claim that I have a long history of untreated depression and extensive alcoholism is absolutely false. Nowhere in my medical history do either of those diagnoses appear. Nor would anyone that knows me well would have told him that. From what one can read online this man specializes in pediatrics, headaches, epilepsy and seizures.

Unsure
Appears knowledgeable about disease process and treatment. Staff won't give clarity for order verification, always get answering machine with no return call.

I have sent friends and family. We all like him so much that they are great full for the recommendation. He is probably great with everything but regulating ADHD; he seems to be amazing. My functioning ability and the ability of children he sees ends up being impressive to say the least. I can't say enough good things about how well my brain works now.
