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.

During my visit with Dr. El-G he informed me I would need an angiogram to determine the course of action for brain aneurysm. He advised it would be scheduled for a week or two post visit. After one week, I called his office and left a message requesting an update. I received no return call. 5 days later I called again and again no return call. It has been 3 weeks and I have heard nothing. Diagnosis of a brain aneurysm is a scary thing. To be totally ignored is unacceptable. I am forced to see other medical care.

Dr. El-G saved my father’s life after a major stroke this past July. My dad is still making great progress, and Dr. El-G set proper expectations in the ICU, and was very encouraging. My Dad’s Uncle (also a Doctor) was very happy with the care that Dr. El-G provided. We will be forever grateful.

Even though he is in the office only 1 day a week I make sure that I can fit his schedule with mine even if there is a cancellation for my appointment. :)

Dr.El-Gengaihy is a sweetheart! He takes all the time needed to make sure you are very well informed, is very polite, professional & has a WONDERFUL bedside manner! He performed an angiogram for me (due to a brain aneurysm ) & all though he was 30 minutes late in the OP room he apologized and made sure things were smooth for /during my procedure. Now his office staff is another matter, would I trust him in a surgery/procedure ....absolutely! His staff is left to be desired.

Dr. El-Gengaihy described procedure, as painless. However, it was painful & I was told by staff that Dr. does not prescribe pain meds. After 1 hr of pain and crying is when Dr. was called & finally gave me pain meds, was sent home with no pain meds, & was in pain for 2 days. Follow up appt. he explained my aneurysm to where I could understand, but when I asked the location of it he was hesitant to tell me and asked me why I wanted to know, his response put me on edge. Wanting to get 2nd opinion.
