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.

Dr Samaha is professional and patient. Trusted.

Favorite PCP
Dr. Samaha has been my PCP for 6 years and I couldn’t recommend her more. She has taken the time to get to know me and I trust my overall health is a huge priority. Dr. Samaha is the perfect balance of understanding and validating, while also being firm (especially when I don’t schedule recommended follow ups). I look forward to my yearly physical and know I can reach out anytime in between with questions or issues.

One of the best doctors I’ve worked with
Dr. Samaha is kind, understanding and has helped me a lot with my anxiety regarding doctors. She takes my medical history into consideration when explaining things and is truly one of the best doctors I’ve worked with.

Very Happy with Dr Samaha
Have been a patient of Dr Samaha's for a couple years now and have had good experiences. She is a great listener, personable, thorough, thoughtful, and definitely knows her stuff. I have recommended her to several friends and will continue to do so.

Proceed with caution and a hefty wallet
Not impressed. I’d be curious if she even knows my family history. I’m sure when she asks how you are, any concerns - she just wants to bill you outside a physical. I’ll be looking for a new PCP and soon. My health is worth it.

Disappointed – May 07, 2022
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Samaha?
Horrible experience. I should have left before the visit even began when she yelled at my 1 year old for touching her keyboard. She was rude, condescending and did not want to hear any of my health concerns. I will never go to her again.

Dr Samaha is by far the best primary I’ve ever had in my 50+ years as an adult. Unlike the usual factory in and out treat the symptoms as fast as possible routine, she spends quality time listening and understanding the whole person. The one star review below is either for a different doctor or comes from a nut job. My whole family now sees Dr Samaha. The whole practice at WFA is top flight.

Terrible doctor. Laughed off my symptoms when I went to get checked right away, once things persisted she got frustrated and refused to order labs as the doctors were too busy dealing with covid patients, according to her. Has zero compassion for her patients, their physical health, or their mental health. Found a great doctor in Boston who orders me labs and found my calcium too high
