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. Saba is great. He listens to his patients and is very kind. I loved the way he treated me and my son. He has a great since of humor and is willing to help out anyway he can. I would recommend others to him

All around bad
Dr. Saba might have years of experience but not at all for the patient who likes to be listened to and respected. He questioned very harshly and disregarded my request to ask questions. Very bad bedside manner. Some may like abrupt, callous, and irritated physicians. If you do, this is your doctor.

I wouldn’t recommend this practice
The staff is not friendly. I’m not a psychic but I felt a lot of heaviness vibe from the office workers. It was just their body language. When it was time to see Dr. Saba, the office receptionist that was sitting behind the sliding window told me to go on back. No one came to escort me back to the examination room. No one ever took any vital signs. I was the only patient there. It’s a gloomy atmosphere in this place; You’ll see. I’ve never experienced this before. Beware, this practice can be a money pit. I would advise anyone to check with your insurance to make 100% sure Dr. Saba’s test are covered. My vibes tells me this practice will suck every penny out of you. Me personally, I wouldn’t put my health in his hands. Just be telling it like it is.

He has great experience in medicine but awkward bedside manners. He shows off a little humor but changes into an obnoxious attitude at the end of visit. His staff looks like they are looking for an escape route. No plans on returning.

Experienced and professional Dr. My wife only needed some tests completed. He has a great sense of humor and was able to get my wife to relax and laugh. She usually doesn’t like Drs. but she was very happy seeing Dr. Saba.

He has a weird sense of humor. But aside from that he is a great neurologist. I went to Dr.Saba because I didn’t wanna keep getting medicated. I really wanted to get to the bottom of my migraines. He’s been in the business for a long time. Maybe a Lil too long. Meaning he should be retiring soon. But that also means he’s seen it all and knows his stuff. If you just want medication to take the pain away. Don’t waste your time cause you won’t get it from him. But if you want tests and a plan to get to the root of your problem. He’s your guy

He should not be allowed to treat patients with memory issues. He has a very nasty attitude and no patience. I would not send my dog to be treated by this man.

Dr Saba would have charged the insurance company $1,100 for a electrotherapy device that my chiropractor offered me at 50. Went on a contingency basis through my legal team for an accident, and he still tried to get payment from my health insurance after being told specifically not too. Post settlement he sends me a bill for an additional $900. Threatens legal action if not paid in 30 days. Questionable integrity. Steer clear. A money pit.

Don’t care what others say. Dr. Saba knows his stuff! I’ve seen just about everyone and tried everything and then I ended up at his office. Fixed me up in a few months and then I’m back for another rear end. Do I want to see another doctor- never. Love love dr. Saba and his team especially Sheryl!

Dr. Saba has a great bed side manner.This was our initial contact . He treated my husband and I with great respect. We were referred by our primary doctor's office. It was a great experience. He and his staff were wonderful. Dr. Saba diagnosed my husband with Parkinson's as our primary doctor suspected. I would refer Dr. Saba to family and friends....

Dr. Saba is the most communicative doctor I have ever encountered. His examination is thorough and no nonsense. He has been attentive to my treatment, follows up, and cost conscious. I have appreciated his professionalism and attention to detail.

Dr. Saba and his wonderful staff provided top notch care treating my chronic migraine headaches with aura and assisted during the onset of Graves Disease. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of neurological services. I am truly thankful for doctors of this caliber.
