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.

Complete dedication
I am on a journey with this doctor to diagnose potential lung cancer. He has methodically came up with a plan of care for me and is following it step-by-step. He explains everything to me in a manner that I can understand. He is finding me the best physicians to do tests on me. He is compassionate and is able to have a truthful conversation with the patient which I absolutely respect and need. he listens to the patient and their concerns and needs. He is an excellent clinician and is driven to find answers for the patient and give the patient as much time that is necessary to have a successful outcome. If you are suffering and need a good pulmonologist, this is the doctor to come to for meaningful treatment

Fantastic Doctor
Doctor Srour has come through for me again. I suffered with congestive heart failure and he did not abandon me. He was uplifting and gave me strength knowing I had someone in my corner. He made sure I was ok and explained evening clearly so I understood what was happening. He did not leave me to dispar. Doctor Srour had my back. Once again he proved to be outstanding with his professionalism and compassion for my needs and care. Thank you for being there for me when I needed you most

What can you say about the man who saved your life
I have been suffering and ignored by many so called health care professionals. I was short of breath with minimal activities and the nights were horrible to endure that it gave me anxiety each night. I found Dr Srour on an online search and I have no faith to be honest with these reviews but I was desperate and I was like I hope those are true. I actually made an appointment with him and 3 other lung doctors in those coming weeks. To my surprise he was very caring , listened to me, heard my distress and immediately with great compassion to my suffering ordered the right tests and medications and asked me to come back in a week not 6 month like other doctors I saw. Next week he saw me and sent me to the ER right away and met me there that night. I was in heart and kidney failure and my oxygen level was low. I needed urgent dialysis and medications. I was in the hospital for 10 days and for the first time in so long I can breath and I was diagnosed by him with a very severe sleep apnea.

I've been a patient of Dr Srour for 2 years now. This is a Great Doctor but he's even a Greater Person. Very thoughtful and knowledgeable about my conditions (Sarcoidosis Stage 4, COPD, Swyer-James Syndrome and Acute Bronchitis) he makes sure I'm never without my Medications I can call and have them filled the same day and he advised me to have a Flu and Pneumonia shot last year and 8 caught Covid19 last year right after that and I know those vaccination helped save my life. He is also helping me with getting myself on the Lung Transplant Donor Registry which will help me in case I need a new set of Lungs in the future. Most Importantly one of the 1st things he told me as a new patient was that he was working with me to help keep me alive and I knew God sent me exactly where I needed to be. Dr Srour if you ever leave I'm moving as well because you by far have been the best doctor I've encountered since this journey started 16 years ago. God Bless You and your Staff and Thank You

My wife is a long term patient of Dr Srour and she insisted on me coming to see him. I eventually gave in and I am so happy I did. I have been suffering from an undiagnosed sleep apnea for decades and refused to acknowledge out of pure stubbornness. Dr Srour explained to me in plain English what was going on with me and I was able to relate to what he said. After a home sleep study and a CPAP. I now wake up feeling 20 years younger and full of energy. I owe Dr Srour and my wife a life gratitude as I feel like I am 30 again. His staff are also amazing to deal with as they are very responsive and accommodating. It’s refreshing to see a whole practice that works so well together as a Solid team

I don’t normally write online reviews but in the case of Dr Srour I felt I needed to. How can you express your gratitude to someone who saved your husband life and saved your family from a horrible future. He is a god send to us. He filled us with hope when the world seemed bleak. He was always there to guide us through the nightmare while we were in the hospital and throughout the follow up office visits we had. I am a nurse and have seen hundreds of doctors practice medicine. I can say without doubt he was born to be a healer. I can’t say enough about his professionalism, compassion and his bedside manners. I refer all my family and my friends to him whenever anyone needed help.

Dr Srour is direct, up-beat, empathetic, and compassionate. He tells you the facts, listens to you, and advises you based on your life and circumstances. He takes the time to explain things in every day language. The more times I see him the more I like him and trust him.

Dr. Srour, has been my mothers Pulmonologist for several years now. Mom has chronic COPD and has been hospitalized many times in the ICU where she has had to be intubated to save her life on multiple occasions. It is always so very difficult to see a loved one in this state. Dr. Srour, is a serious professional who clearly defines choices in the best interest for the patient and the consequences when directive are not followed. He is willing to hear what you have to say, open to discussion, and provides sound advice for the patient & family. I do highly recommend this doctor.

Dr. Srour has done a phenomenal job helping my mother. She was dying in Florida. Her doctors there told her to contact hospice and wait to die. After moving her to Indiana and seeing Dr. Srour we found that she had been misdiagnosed. Mom is breathing much easier and actually enjoying life again. We are so grateful for the expert care given by Dr. Srour and I am telling everyone I know, if you need a pulmonologist, this is the man you need to see. My mom trusts him with her life.
