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 have been a patient of Dr. Saffouri's for more than 25 years. He has treated me for chronic IBS, diverticulosis and a one-time (thankfully) episode of ischemic colitis. His experience as a gastroenterologist is extensive, and I believe his clinical and diagnostic skills are second to none. While he is always professional and pragmatic, he is also very kind, and it is obvious he genuinely cares for his patients. I have the utmost confidence in Dr. Saffouri and recommend him highly.

Dr. B. Saffouri is a great doctor and a wonderful person. I have been his patient for over 20 years. A very caring person, like a real doctor should be. He always helped me in the most critical situations, explained the problem very meticulously and clearly and was always available. My husband is also his patient for many years. Our family is very grateful to the doctor Dr. Saffouri.

What an amazing doctor. I was starting to give up on having a normal life until a family member recommended Dr. Saffouri. I followed what he told me and in 2 weeks I have seen more improvement than the past year. Such a relief, you have no idea. Experienced, smart and genuine doctor, does not rush the appointment. Words can’t describe how happy I am with my experience with Dr. Saffouri.

I have been a patient of Dr Saffouri for many years. I absolutely love him. He is like a wonderful, kindly grandfather, very loving of his patients. When my wife needed a colonoscopy, I recommended Dr Saffouri. She was so pleased as well.
