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.

Comfort
Dr. Raffi was very easy to talk to. He made me feel like my thoughts mattered. He has a great sense of humor; that's important to me. Thank him for being eho He is! I am sorry about the lab work not being there, had I'd known I would have made sure he had what he needed.

His assistant in the lab was really good (Krystal). Lab techs always have trouble finding a vain and hitting it with the needle. It's been a VERY log time since I had it go as smooth. It felt no more than like a mosquito bite, got the vein on the first try, and the bruise on my arm is almost nonexistent.

Spent some time getting to know the real me, not the paperwork. He asked a lot of questions, I am confident that he can help me with my condition as he seemed very interested in understanding my work life and my habits, then he looked at my medical history and asked questions to tie them together. Ran some test and will discuss treatment options once he looks at those. Was not rushed into anything.

Dr Al - Rifai is a good man and it seems like he is great dictor. I had a littany of questions and concerns and he took the time to answer each and everyone of them. Never felt rushed. Very good people skills and he put my wife and I immediately at ease. The only reason I had to wait is that when I made my appointment I was told the practice would have moved to the new location. The move was delayed. No one called me to advise to go to current address. Very annoying. Your new location is sleek
