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.

My son took sick in 1997 he was 9 year old but Dr Alaswad thought it was ulcer . He took the time and call to check on my child on a weekend, and told me to bring him for biopsy Dr. Bashar my son at 9 years old had bacterial in his stomach and Dr said as much of bacteria my son had would have put a man on his knee. I wants to say again after 30 years thank you I have never forgot.

We saw the doctor and he scheduled a colonoscopy. We were called two days before and told that there was a problem with the insurance but they would appeal it and get back to us. It has been two months and II have not heard back and when I call there is an answering machine but you are not allowed to leave a message. I would have a hard time trusting my child's health to this office.

This man is truly ignorant. He prescribed a medication to my child that hasn't had any significant studies for pediatric use... The internal information specifically cautioned against prescribing said medication to a child of that age. Unacceptable. I imagine with that kind of ignorance he'd be sued for malpractice at some point. And he's exceedingly misogynistic. My wife can ever get a word in and he treats her like garbage.

Won't answer phone. When I did get through, they wanted me to call the lab and get lab results myself, which the lab won't release it to me. He ask questions and doesn't listen to the response. I cancelled our follow up appointment and won't go back!
