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.

The Worst, Avoid if you can
He had no idea what was going, office staff was rude. The hospital, Broward General is dated and everybody seems clueless. I would avoid him and this hospital.

Aloof Surgeon
I went to him for second opinion, was not impressed, did not seem to care. Kept interrupting me and leaving the exam room. He did not seem to care about me.

De El Gazzaz and Dr Palaios saved my husband's life in 2017. We will forever be grateful for their amazing skills throughout his surgery as difficulties occurred. These Drs are nothing short of miracle workers with incredible bedside manners which served my husband and my nerves well. Unfortunately these Drs are no longer at BHMC. I wish that I could find out where they have gone for I would continue to have my husband treated for his aftercare with them. They are truly the finest physicians we have been treated by. If you ever need a transplant seek them out. If anyone knows where they have transferred to please let me know. I wish you all good health.

I'm so thankful to Dr. El-Gazzaz for preforming emergency surgery on me in 2016. I had broken my femur bone and the bone almost severed a main artery. Luckily Dr. El-Gazzaz did amazing work to fix it and put a rod in my leg the saved my life. So thankful to this man and his amazing son Omar. Without this I wouldn't be alive to see my daughter.

He gave me false information in my opinion to gain insurance money. please be very ware as he can be very manipulative. Don't end up mutilated do your research and get second opinion. which I did 1/2 star
