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 love this Dr. she took excellent care of my son.

Dr. Abbo is the absolute best of the best ! I was basically dead when I got to the E.R. but she wouldn't give up on me and made sure I was going to live. If I knew in advance what was going to happen to me I would make sure she is the one who would take care of me as she is a kind, caring person who genuinely cares for her patients well being which is a rarity these days as most Dr's only care about the paycheck ! I also appreciate the fact that she tells it like it is and doesn't sugar coat anything , but she also praises you when you are doing things correctly ! If asked by any of my friends for a recommendation for a cardiologist Dr. Katherine Abbo would be the only name out of my mouth !

I was seen by Dr. Abbo and she found coronary artery disease. I needed bypass surgery. She was very compassionate and understood. She made me feel everything was going to be okay and she helped me get through it. One of the kindest Doctors I have ever meet.

I had the pleasure of seeing Dr. Kathy Abbo as a independent physician in the community for my hypertension. Unlike whoever wrote the previous review, she was excellent ,compassionate, and I got an thorough exam. My medication was adjusted, I was given a heart healthy medical plan and because of it I feel better than I have in years. This is the best cardiology has to offer and I’ve been in many hospital systems around the United States. I highly recommend this position for any problem with your heart without reservation.
