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.

Very kind,gentle doctor I would highly recommend.
Dr operated on my broken arm and it healed wonderfully. Addressed all my concerns.

Dr Fakhouri was amazing, kind, helpful and funny.
I didn’t have great concerns going into the office but anytime you meet a new physician you want to make sure you know what you’re talking about and have all your questions ready to be answered. I would highly recommend Dr.Fakhouri to anyone in my situation. His staff is wonderful. He takes the time to get to know you and understand your situation. He explains all possible options moving forward. He educated me on my condition and also had me watch a video His summary of my appointment that he forwarded to both my referring and primary doctors were beyond thorough. I was 100% pleased with how he got to know me, took the time to understand my situation, handle things now and a plan for the future.
