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.

Dr. Najjar is easy to work with and very thorough. She makes sure that any questions you have are answered.

Dr Najjar is so blinded by arrogance. This doctor has an iron wall policy that anyone that is 7 min late (on the exact dot) will be turned away. This policy is unknown, unwritten, and unposted. I am really sick and drove half hour to see my PCP. I was told to come back and take the first available (in a couple weeks). I said I was too sick and that was too long to wait to see the doctor. The secretaries kept calling the doctor to try to get an exception but the doctor didn't care and wouldn't even have a nurse assess what was wrong with me. Do not trust this Doctor. She is way more concerned about her 7-minute rule and keeping her schedule perfect than she is about people. Christine Najja is so ridged and self-focused that she is capable of seriously hurt her patients when she blanket refuses care of sick people. She definitely should not be in primary care.

Had 1st appointment with Dr Najjar this week, and found her to be very attentive. The visit was not rushed. She asked more than once if I had any questions, or if there was anything else I wanted to discussed. She stressed the importance of diet, had a recommendation for a bone supplement, plus provided titles for some books and videos on wellness.
