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.

Excellent Doctor
Dr Aboufares has been attending to my mother’s heart problems for many years now. He is everything you would want in a Doctor, an expert professional that is caring and takes his time with the patient and also listens. I didn’t have to think twice when it was my turn to select a cardiologist. He is the best and has an amazing team. The minute you walk through the door you will know you are in good hands. Always the appropriate follow ups and reminders. I highly recommend Dr. Aboufares!
