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.

Our doctor, Dr. Sabbag, is great. However, your new system is horrible. Too much time filling out forms in triplicate, for example.

Left after waiting one hour
He may be a wonderful doctor and he was recommended, but it was a terrible experience with the appointment after 55 minutes and were told there were still two people That is not acceptable. The waiting room was packed.

not pleased
I saw doctor 2x @ 1st eval & @ surg; diagnosis/plan not sufficiently explained. Each follow-up visit took 30-60days to schedule- I had mod pain at start of care that was intense/ constant 6mo later @ time of surgery. In-house surgery center: a nightmare -they refused best anesthesia for procedure unless 24/7 post care arranged in home - no prior notice of policy therefore nothing was arranged-too much pain to refuse. Pre-op, I was locked into hospital bed without a call lite x4hr.; no one checked on me. IV stopped working in 1st 30 min; antibiotic & hydration not given. Semi-Naked man (privates visible) walked to bathroom by staff-it allowed me to call out for help. I was awake during surgery. Discharged with dangerously elevated BP. Severe finger to elbow bruising under the brace prevented its use x72hr as recommended.. Note: Office and surgery center were clean and everyone was polite- the only questions asked on the quality of care form provided by the doctor.

Patient
I have been a patient of Dr. Sabbag for a number of years. Dr. Sabbag surgically treated me for a trigger finger of my right hand. He has a great manner and his precision is second to none. I have a lot of confidence in him. Dr. Sabbag is a good listener and cares a great deal about his patients.

So far not great. Dr recommends surgery, the coordinator is not helpful and just keeps saying I dont have the report. No follow up or help in moving the process along.

Dr. Sabbag put my broken hand back together, and the following year he put my broken arm back together! He was wonderful through both of these experiences. I have full range of mobility and movement, and I credit this to Dr. Sabbag’s expertise. I highly recommend him without hesitation.

I have seen him for two different things. He did a good careful examination and was very knowledgeable on both occasions and his recommendations were conservative treatments.

I had a good deal in my right ring finger and annoying tingling as well. The first doctor I saw, an orthopedist for a different issue, said I would probably need a surgery and recommended Dr. Sabbag. I first saw his physician's assistant who was a very well trained, warm, professional. Dr. S. explained my problem and answered questions, gave me an injection. He said I might need to return and have a second injection which is what I did and have been excellent since then three years after that.
