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.

Way too long to wait for a follow up
Waited over one and a half hours. Good doctor with poor time management. He needs to work on this.

Not Happy – Dec 03, 2024
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Sharaby?
good dr not good staff
4 hours in the waiting room which is typical for this dr i am told, but my main issue is this. Told me they will send the prescription to the pharmacy, they did not, called and was told they will call me back about the prescription, they did not (waited a whole day), drove there to get a physical prescription, they could not Forget it, i cancelled my next appointment. Not a good feel. He may be a great dr, but a good staff is just as important.

Ozone Park, NY – Apr 12, 2017
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Sharaby?
I went to see Dr.Sharby and he refused to take my case. Dr.Sharby told me to go home and track how many times I go to the restroom and how much I urinate. Dr.Sharby did not do any exam or run any tests. Dr.Sharby told me he was sorry he does not specialize in my problem. I don't know how that made sense since he never examined me or ran any tests!!!!
