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.

I was referred to Dr Nidal Abi Rafeh from North Oaks Hospital ER. I went to my initial visit and was very much pleased with such professionalism, friendliness, well treated and also listens and takes the time needed to discuss your options of treatment and care. I will definitely continue to see Dr Nidal Abi Rafeh.
