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.

Hard to reach a d extremely rude
I would never recommend Dr. Elsheik. He was very unempathetic about his staff Romayne being rude twice and not having many times when no one is available to answer the phone or call back even when you have left a message that you’re in dire pains. He said he disagreed with me and will not say anything to Romayne or make any helpful changes. I wasted months waiting for a colonoscopy only to be treated so unfairly my him and his staff.
