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.

Excellent Physician
I’ve had two colonoscopies and an endoscopy performed by Dr. Hegab. He’s intelligent and thorough and able to explain complex conditions in simple, easy to understand language without patronizing the patient. He is also up to date on the latest information concerning diseases, disorders, treatment options, pharmaceuticals, and surgical procedures.

Very pleased with my first experience with Dr. Hegab, who performed an endoscopy. He was patient with my questions both before and after the procedure. His deep knowledge base was also obvious as we discussed my diagnosis and next steps. I definitely recommend him.L

The best gastroenterologist ever! His kindness and compassion is beyond words. He also is not going to let something go. If he thinks something is wrong but doesn't know what it is right away he will figure it out, no matter what.

I would highly recommend Dr. Hegab. He is the BEST!!!! There are really no words to even describe how caring, compassionate, and understanding he is when you are going through a procedure such as Esophagogastroduodenoscopy. I was a little worried at first; just thought of being put to sleep scares me but he was there every step of the way. Great job. I will never, ever go to anymore hospitals in Washington DC. Inova is great and so are the Doctors. Happy New Year's Dr. Hegab!
