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.

Attentive and responsive
Dr. Azar was responsive and caring and provided me the time and attention for my treatment.

Definitely 5-Star Physician
Dr. Azar was everything the reviews promised—warm, welcoming, attentive, and reassuring. He took the time to listen to my concerns and offered solutions and suggestions focused on preservation, with surgery being a last resort. I’m so glad I found him!

Dr. Azar - Highly Recommend
Dr. Azar is very professional and he has the experience you want in a doctor when dealing with orthopedic problems. I left my appointment very grateful that I had seen him in particular. He was able to pinpoint my problem, explain why it was happening and told me what could be done . He was honest and very up front about it which I appreciated.

Quick and Efficient
Dr. Azar’s clinic is run in a very efficient and professional manner. He is friendly, respectful and professional. He does not rush you, listens to you and explains your options for treatment in a way you can understand. He has excellent credentials (read his bio on the Campbell Clinic website). I’ve had two appointments thus far, a morning appointment and a mid-afternoon appointment. Both times I was seen on time—no long wait—I was seen on time!

Recommended non invasive treatment
I went to Dr. Azar 1.5 years post partum for crippling knee pain from a previous injury but flared up during pregnancy (I had put on 50 lbs and am only 5 something). The previous doctor I saw a few weeks post partum diagnosed it as a knee cap shift and recommended surgery so I held off and focused on trying to lose weight in the meantime. Dr. Azar diagnosed it as a different issue that doesn’t require surgery and prescribed PT first.
