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.

Top Quality Physician
I have been a registered nurse for 21 years now, I have seen and worked with many physicians, Dr. Karim in my professional opinion is (UNIQUE), and one of a kind,he is compassionate about his patients, and most of all,the quality of care provided.He is there for his patients, day or night without complaint! I respect this man not only for his dedication to patients, family members, and staff. He works with everyone to get that quality of care so needed by healthcare, just right.He truly goes up and beyond the call of duty, day or night, Thankyou, Dr. Karim for your dedication!

Diamond in the Rough
I’ve had an autoimmune condition since I was 18. Recently, I had 3 stokes and my condition started to deteriorate. Saw several specialist, even MIND clinic, Doctors just didn’t seem to understand the pain I was in. One doctor even accused me of exaggerating my symptoms. For the last 2 years I have been in so much! Been to the ER several times. By luck, I was able to see dr Karim. In the last 3months, I have started to finally feel like I have had some control of my life. My loved ones are finally starting to see the happy girl that was dying inside. On top, no more shots in my head! I honesty’s recommend checking him out; esp to anyone who’s dealing with neurological/pain issues. He listens! He cares! You not just another patient. He values you and your pain. his staff members are amazing . No matter how many times I call the office, she (Hiba) doesn’t take her frustration out on me. Hard to find good staff with amazing provider! You feel like family! AND CARED FOR LIKE FAMILy.

An Excellent physician
For several years, Dr. Karim has been my primary physician and has seen me through many health issues and crises. His carefulness, thoroughness, and knowledge make him like the boy who held his finger in the levee to prevent the city from being flooded. Dr. Karim, as well as his staff, are well-organized and efficient professionals. His staff provides needed services promptly and accurately, but also with compassion. Like a good physician, Dr. Karim takes notes during a patient visit.

He's Amazing! He is right to the point. He tries to figure out 1 issue at a time. He's very thorough and shows your test results and explains what they mean. He tells you the truth and not what you want to hear. He has a since of humor. You don't have to Waite hours to see him. I'd recommend him to anyone.
