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.

He’s the best! Very knowledgeable about breast cancer, an excellent surgeon and has the perfect bedside manner. I highly recommend him!

Great experience
I went to Dr. Fabian following a breast cancer diagnosis. He was very through when going over information and options, and his office staff were helpful in getting quickly scheduled for the procedure. I had a lumpectomy. Surgery and follow up went well. Dr. Fabian is very caring and knowledgeable, and worked well with my oncologist and radiologist oncologist to provide the best care.

The best. Very professional from the consult to the surgery to the followup. Took time to explain and set my expectations of the surgery and what overall results would be.

"I don’t even know where to begin. I woke from a routine total thyroidectomy July 2010. I was told I might have a bit of hoarseness and sore. I never expected my life would be changed forever. Dr Fabian was a pleasant and knowledgeable Dr. I met him once to discuss the “simple “ procedure. Afterwards I spent days and weeks in agony. Not unexpected. But three months following the surgery I still had no voice at all. Nothing but a whisper. A career professor and educator , I looked forward to ridding the inflamed gland and moving forward with my life and career. I called Dr Fabian’s office to ask him to see me that I was concerned about my loss of voice. My inability to swallow and extreme pain. I was told that only if my endocrinologist felt I needed to be seen that I would be brought in. My referring endocrinologist said I did not need to see him. It wasn’t till my primary referred me to ENTs and it was confirmed. I was robbed of early intervention and face a life sentence of pain.

Dr. Fabian performed a surgical biopsy on my breast. He explained everything well and demonstrated a very caring attitude. He was highly recommended by other local medical professionals. Very happy with him.

Went to the ER for abdominal pain. The ER doc thought it was diverticulitis. Dr Fabian showed up after reviewing the CT scan and knew immediately it was a ruptured appendix. Scheduled and performed removal the next day. Super bedside manner fabulous surgeon. Professional service. Highly recommended.

The lack of professionalism with Dr. Fabian and Chrisanne has become laughable at this point. Let's just say, I realized there was no way I could trust my body in their hands and cancelled the surgery in the prep room after speaking with Dr. Fabian. A week or so later, I received a phone call asking why I missed my appointment, indicating that there is a serious lack in communication. A week after that, I received a letter that can only be described as a "No, I broke up with you" letter.

I am 75 years old, and recently had my first surgery - ever. I was very worried about having surgery. However, just the opposite happened. Dr. Michael Fabian was the surgeon recommended by our primary care physician. From the initial office consultation, to scheduling, to the actual surgery and the post operation visit, I experienced a top-quality professional. Dr. Fabian is a good communicator, compassionate, and skilled in getting desired results. The experience was excellent in all respects.

Dr Fabian saved my life when I had sepsis and peritonitis. He is professional, extremely competent, and I was very lucky that he was on call when I was admitted through the ER. He interacted well with my family members- even speaking to them during surgery to let them know my diagnisis had become more serious and my surgical outcome was changing. I have a colostomy revision surgery scheduled with him in March and would not think of going to anyone else. I highly recommend him.

Dr. Fabian is one of the most trusted physicians I have been a patient of. He was very thorough in explaining the procedure for an inguinal hernia repair and once again, explained everything I needed to know on surgery day. The surgery experience went as stated with no complications. Both times he took the time to listen to my questions and even answer the questions I didn't think to ask. He is a friendly, humble surgeon who is down to Earth. I highly recommend him!

I recently had surgery by Dr. Fabian and I couldn't be more pleased. He is professional, has a very nice bedside manner, and did an excellent job. His staff, both in his office as well as in the surgery center, were also excellent. Dr Fabian deserves the highest recommendation.
