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.

I worked with Dr. El-Atfy in his office in Crestview for almost 2 years. He is one of the friendliest, down-to-earth and knowledgeable physicians I have ever worked with and I've been working in the medical field for 30 years. I've been a CMA for almost 14 years & he is by far one of my favorites. He really cares about his patients and he made sure we kept close notes on patients who were being referred for procedures, Oncology, Thoracic Surgery, ect., especially his brocoscopies. We always called and made sure patients were scheduled & the patient was aware what was happening. I would recommend him to everyone!

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. El-Atfy?
Dr. El -Atfy is fantastic. I live over an hour away but make the drive because he is friendly, caring and thorough. He is highly educated, energetic and very sharp. His bedside manner is very warm and outgoing. His front desk and nursing staff are also all excellent. This makes a huge difference, as I have had fantastic doctors who have awful support staff. He also uses an online system so you can access a lot of your information online if you choose.
