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.

No way!
First a pacemaker with one wire then a year later: oops we need one with 3 wires: that one is cheap and not competitive with MRI so I am doomed and can not have an MRI for the rest of mi life.

I was a little apprehensive based on some reviews. We had to wait a while, but the reason quickly became apparent. He spent about 1/2 hour face to face explaining my upcoming procedure, going over my monitor results with me, answering all my questions to my satisfaction. His manner was gentle, courteous and respectful. We already knew he was very competent, but the exam experience was a pleasant surprise.

Dr Alawwa was very understanding and comforting during my visit. He was very thorough with reviewing reports and blood tests and did not order unnecessary medications or additional testing. I would recommend Dr Alawwa to anybody for excellent heart health care!

You wait at least a hour past appointment time he spend maybe 5 mins with you once he comes into the room disregards any questions or concerns you may have and don't even think about questioning him as to why he is taking certain actions or placing you on certain medicines all you will receive as a answer is TO SAVE YOUR LIFE this doctor is a joke who thinks he is a godly figure you are nothing more than a number to him!!
