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 Labban is very thorough and trustworthy
Dr Labban tested me and came up with the best treatment plan for my specific type of cancer. He always offers the highest standard of care to his patients. He is an excellent diagnostician. HE phoned another doctor treating me and they worked together for my best interest. My family and I are deeply indebted to Dr George Labban.

Dr. Labban has been treating me for 5 years through two bouts of peritoneal cancer, two rounds of chemo, and I wouldn’t trade him! He is kind, compassionate, honest, and funny. He stays current on the latest treatment options and truly cares about his patients’ well-being. In fact my husband was originally referred to another hematologist for his blood cancer and switched to Dr. Labban specifically because he knew him to be more caring and invested in his patients.

In 2007 I was diagnosed with Gr. 1 invasive ductal carcinoma and treated with lumpectomy followed by radiation. Dr Labban had to work to gain my confidence after my initial oncologist, Dr. Jim Cohen, relocated to Arizona. Today I am happy to be in Dr. Labban’s care. He has made adjustments in my follow up care over the years as secondary breast issues have arisen requiring MRIs, ultrasounds, and biopsies. Dr. Labban’s office manner is direct, yet he is willing to listen, which is appreciated.

Radiologists identified blood clots on my lungs. My referring physician recommended me to Dr. Labban. I met him initially at the hospital in urgent care. Over the past approximate year he has assumed primary control over my circulatory health and potential oncological issues. After numerous tests, scanning indicators, office visits, laboratory visits and interviews I have come to know him as a caring, competent physician within his selected specialities. He is highly recommended!
