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.

Doctor takes his time with me and my husband. Always does a full exam on us. He makes sure you understand his orders.

I have gone to Dr Aljari for atleast 6 years. He is always professional, knowledgeable, and caring doctor..He takes his time and does not rush you through . He always takes your vitals. He has helped me through a very chronic illness which I am very happy for.

Best Doctor I ever had! in Apollo – Jul 07, 2018
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Aljari?
When a doctor takes his board and gets licensed, he also takes an oath to treat the sick. Based on my experience, Dr Aljari should be reported to the board of health. He diagnoses based on how convenient it is and how much work he has to put into it. He misdiagnosed me for my pain saying I was just "depressed" and put me on depression meds. He lied and said he tested me for Lyme and said I didn't have it. 2 yrs later, my pain IS Lyme and I have irreversible damages from his negligence and lies.

Dr. Aljari and his staff are very competent and professional. I have never had an issue and have recommended several relative and friends to him. He always takes his time and does an exam. I have never been to him and not had my vitals taken even to just get a flu shot. The other day I went to a different doctor of mine and she didn't examine me and was with me for less than 10 minutes. At the end, she told me to come back if I continue to have this problem and she will do testing then.

Highly satisfied patient in Pittsburgh, PA – Mar 24, 2017
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Aljari?
This was the WORST doctor I've ever been to. Nickel and Dime you for everything. Bunch of crooks if you ask me. I would stay very, very far away from this bozo and is incompetent staff. He's a very lazy doctor and the staff is so unbelievably rude.

If i could give negative ratings for Dr. Aljari, I would. In all my life, I've never met a more arrogant, and lazy doctor. If you have insurance that needs special approvals for medications, he will refuse to write up the reports, then tell you that it's your job to fight with the insurance. His secretary is nasty when you call in and when you beg them for help. I have a permanent illness and he refused to help me because he didn't want to deal with my insurance. Found a great Dr in the Heights.

Dr Aljari is the best around!! He's very thorough! He will never push you out of the office like most do, he takes the time to listen and makes sure you understand everything before you leave. If you have the tiniest medical issue, he WILL find it and fix it! He's amazing!
