Dr. Nabil Barakat, MD

I get recommended to go here from an injury from work and it’s by far the worst treatment. He just cared about getting paid and not your well being. He’s very unprofessional.

The staff was great and so was the doctor. Very attentive and compassionate.

I had carpal tunnel surgery in October 2022, I'm still suffering in May 2023. Very bad experience.

The other negative reviews are spot on. He has zero empathy, is completely inappropriate & unprofessional & is beyond rude. I don’t even have words to describe the experience.

Terrible experience. Made fun of my concerns. Condescending and insulting. No empathy.

I think Dr. Barakat is top notch hand surgeon. I had two carpal tunnel procedures done by him. In both, I had very minor pain for a day. His work is so good that only a very experienced doctor can find the scars in my hands. I have had NO recurrences after several years.

When I went in after getting an EKG of my hand in the very beginning, I asked what the specialist found in his evaluation and Dr. Nabil Barakat just ignored me and never explained what was in that report. I tell him what I’m feeling and what can be done to stop the hot burning sensation in the center of my palm and my ring finger locking up and he doesn’t have an answer. The 1st 2 appointments steroids was administered it eased the pain somewhat but the condition is still the same. On my 3rd appt I asked him what can be done my finger still hurts and locking up he replied I’m not trying to say your bullsh@*ting but at sometime he has to lift my restrictions. This happened on 11/18/2020. Keep in mind had a Cat scan, from there a different Dr. decided on a EKG then the hand specialist Dr. Barakat. Releasing me to work with the situation being the same. He simply doesn’t care. His service doesn’t last longer than 5 mins.

I wish I could give less than a one star review. This doctor was unprofessional, rude, and is a liability to his patients. I went here to have an x-ray reviewed after I had broken my finger. I called his office the day before and made sure that the x-ray had been sent over and they verified that they had received it. The day of appointment, the doctor said that they had not received the x-ray and would not check to make sure, saying that it wasn't on my chart so they didn't have it. This did not stop him from telling me that I needed to have extensive physical therapy because he said my finger might not work if I didn't. That ended up being completely untrue and maybe if he had looked at my x-ray or had known what finger was broken (he kept looking at my other hand and I to tell him multiple times that he was looking at the wrong finger). Overall a horrible experience!

Doctors and therapists were very helpful emotionally and physically throughout the recovery process

This Dr. can have all the 5 stars here, to me one star is too much for him! He showed no sympathy or empathy as a Dr should in this first and last appointment. Thankfully I don't need him and feel sorry for those who do, he was just a 2nd opinion for my case to be put away by insurance.. he didn't know me as a patient, if I was suicidal, he would have pushed me over the edge. He took one look at the paperwork and decided my pains are not real. FYI Dr I didn't need u for a day off or anything

I do not believe you will ever find a more kind, sensitive, and professional surgeon as Dr. BARAKAT. His staff are wonderful.

treble bed side matter, i feel if its don't require surgery he isn't interested in treating you or your injury treated me from day one like i am a idiot. wont give you test that are need to treat you,when they are suggested by IME dr. through workers comp. overall making me feel like i did something wrong when i need treatment of a 5th metacarpal fracture and possible CRPS.

honest , but helping himself more
