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.

Highly recommend Dr. Ghanem
I have been truly blessed that Dr. Ghanem came into my life when I was diagnosed with laryngeal cancer 13 years ago. From our very first meeting I was so very impressed with his calm, honest, genuine and patient mannerisms and his ability to make me feel “hopeful” at a time when my whole world was falling apart. He is such a gifted surgeon and a remarkable man who cares so deeply for his patients. I will forever be thankful for him and all that he has done for me.

Dr Ghanem treated me for cancer in 2019. He found and removed my tumor. He is definitely the best. He is always concerned with how I am doing, answers all my questions, talks with me about interests we share. He checks all of my test results carefully.

In the past 5/6 months I have undergone, primary care visit, colonoscopy, *Dr. T Ghanem visit & presurgery visit, CAT scan, bloodwork, outpatient surgery, post surgical visit. I am totally satisfied. Everyone I have had dealings with were absolutely wonderful. *Dr. Ghanem's surgical team was great at Henry Ford Macomb Hospital. They were all very comforting in my very nervous time.
