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.

The best!
Thorough....answers all questions....diagnosed me almost immediately and my issues were complicated...reassured me throughout that we would get this cured and or stabilized...was always there to call back if I had questions...I could not ask for more from a doctor...THE BEST!

Very through
Went to Dr for a lingering cough. He quickly diagnosed me with lung cancer and it was stage 1. I had surgery and am now in remission. I can't thank him enough.

I was seen 5/22/22 after having an undertreated pneumonia. He would not prescribe antibiotics but said to call him if I get sick or end up in the ER. He ordered a CT Scan 6/22/23 showing ‘Bilateral Parenchymal scarring’ & 7/6/23 Pulmonary Function Test that revealed ‘Moderate Chest Restriction’ but never notified me of these results or treated me & I end up back in the SIUH Northwell ER 7/20/23 for chest pain again. And again my heart is fine. I see his associate 7/26/23 & he is impatient & rushing me out. This is when I see the reports. I call back 7/27/23 to find out what the treatment plan is & no one calls me back. I even report this incident to Patient Experience 7/27/23 & that office calls back to say that Dr Chaloub will not prescribe antibiotics & offers no explanation or alternative plan. BTW I am a 14yr Stage 4 CLL Leukemia Survivor on Chemo. #Monster

HORRIBLE
too bad I have to leave 1 star, my Mom has been under his care for 10 months he has done minimal tests she has been in the hospital 3 times this year. Very hard to make follow up appts that the hospital wants you too has never changed her meds rushes the appt. I feel that he feels my Mom is 85 and who cares. I have been trying to change DR's for months and without his approval I can't go to another DR in his group. He came highly recommended but I wouldn't take my cat to him.

Consistently late on filling necessary prescriptions. Most recently he has not returned any calls for the past 8 days, which is still ongoing. The matter of discussion was renewing my COPD medication in the midst of the COVID pandemic. As soon as this is resolved, I will be searching for a new lung doctor.

This dr & his associates told my husband he needed to have a lung biopsy on a mass. Not only did he do it incorrectly and give incorrect results, my husband has to have the procedure redone by Sloan Kettering. Thank his we went to Sloan before he surgically implanted a stent in his bronchial tube which was unnecessary. If you value you health and life stay far from these drs.

He is not only a wonderful Dr., but a true gentleman. I can honestly say that I would not want any other Dr treating me. He saved my husbands life 3 years ago and now I am under his care for COPD. Excellent!

He is really dangerous. I encourage anyone going to him to PLEASE get a second opinion. His malpractice suits say it all. He had me on sooo much medication - several inhalers as well prednisone. He did NOT listen to me at all when I told him it was making me worse. Turns out I have rotary scoliosis as well as other structural bone - problems and he was treating my lungs. If EVIL walked the earth it would be him.

This guy is a clown. My grandmother was in the ICU at Staten Island University Hospital for a stroke, responding to commands (thumbs up, two fingers, etc.) and he tells us he recommends palliative care. He just wanted the bed back and saw an old woman who was taking up an expensive spot in his ICU. He tried to make you feel like he's got things under control, but he couldn't care any less about your loved one. On top of that, he struts around the ICU like his you know what doesn't stink. AVOID.

Dr. Chalhoub is incredibly knowledgable and he really cares about me. He works with me to improve my overall health and he really wants me to get better. I never have to wait for an appointment with him. If I call and say I don't feel well, they give me an appointment the same day. Dr. Chalhoub has saved my life when I had aspiration pneumonia. He is truly the best. I'm completely devastated that my insurance changed and I can't go to him anymore. I am eternally grateful to him for his care.
