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 had a breast lumpectomy.
I have to say I was very nervous and afraid. But Dr. Khalife assured me that he would take care of me and everything would turn out well. Which it did! He explained the procedure to me and made me feel comfortable. I have to say that from beginning to end I was treated with such professionalism and kindness. From the doctor and all the nurses at the surgical center. They all put my mind at ease. I would totally recommend Dr. Khalife.

Terrible terrible terrible. Had laparoscopic hernia surgery. As a result I now suffer from gastroparesis, because he damaged my nerve. My hernia is still there and larger. I suffer every single day with complications. Go to someone else, you won’t regret it!

Still suffering from a botched surgery by Dr. Khalife. As a result of hernia surgery, I now have gastroparesis, caused by him damaging my nerve. I was also discharged from the hospital with a collapsed lung. And worst my hernia has grown and twisted after a “so called” repair. I am assuming he went in made a mistake and got out. I suffer every single day from the mistakes he made.

My husband has had his hernia surgeries with Dr. Khalife and he has been wonderful. He is very caring and attentive as well as his office staff. Especially during this Covid19 timeframe he made sure my husband’s surgery followed all safety protocols too. Thank you Dr. Khalife!!

I did a open muscle biopsy with him and I have to say his patience, professionalism and soothing demeanor definitely warrants him receiving 5+ stars. It’s very rare you meet a doctor let alone surgeon that cares about his patients like this.

I found Dr. Khalife to be an excellent surgeon. He displays a confident, calm demeanor allowing me to feel relaxed and reassured about my hernia operation. He removed any doubts or fear that the operation would be anything but successful.
