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.

I had a lot of questions and concerns regarding my care, Dr. Hassoun was very patient with me and seemed very knowledgeable. I trust that I will receive good care in his hands going forward.

Friendly and very relatable. I did not feel like I was speaking to a doctor, I felt like I was speaking to a friend.

Good experience. The doctor made my mother feel very comfortable. I learned a lot about the extent of her disease. He put everything into perspective for me.

I recently made an appointment to see "Dr." Hassoun and, honestly I can't believe this arrogant, ignorant, self-absorbed and ill-informed medical student is allowed to even practice medicine at JH. I expected the administration would have vetted the credentials of all of their staff, especially a thoracic surgeon. I felt that while Dr. Hassoun was semi professional his attitude and condescending tone of voice really made my elderly mother uncomfortable. I would never tell anyone I love to see

This Dr. has absolutely the worst bedside manner I have ever encountered in my life! My elderly mother was an ICU patient and he was going to perform a below the knee amputation without having ever seen her and without proper testing. She was transferred to another hospital where another vascular surgeon was able to save her limb. Do NOT use this man. Very insensitive and arrogant. I pray that one day his license will be revoked. Thank God, as a Dr myself, I had the forethought to move my mother
