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.

Great Dr.
When I first visited he promptly had me do a guided injection and when that had no result scheduled the surgery. Right now I am doing home health, in a bit more pain than I anticipated but that’s no reflection on Salaam, I think prior spine surgery wouldn’t allow epidural which may have made the post op pain less cumbersome. Looking forward to my follow-up visit next week. Christopher Lyle, MBA Right Hip replacement patient, 7 days post-op
