Dr. Paul Ghaemmaghami, MD

Dr G is a wonderful doctor and a skilled surgeon. He is kind, patient, a great listener, and takes his time with the patient. He is also considered the best by the OR staff.

Dr G. did an amazing job with my husband’s pre-op care, the operation itself, and post-operative care! He was very thorough, took his time explaining everything to us each time we met even staying with us until 7:30 on a Friday night (for 2.5 hours), and followed up with us every morning and evening after the surgery while in the hospital! He is an amazing doctor who always comes to see his own patients at the hospital daily, listens, and takes pride in his career. They just don’t make doctors like Dr. G. anymore. We highly recommend him to others. Thanks Dr. G!

I can only say good things, he took his time with me, did not make me feel rushed at all! He thoroughly explained the procedure. What to expect after, very prompt in returning phone calls! Beside manner is amazing! I would recommend him 1000 times over!

During my husband's routine Colonoscopy exam, a 3 cm tumor was found that could not be removed during the procedure. He was referred to Bon Secours St. Mary's Hospital and we met with Dr. Ghaemmaghami. From the consultation to the surgery itself and then the hospital stay, Dr. G was the most kind and caring individual. His calm and down-to-earth demeanor was incredibly helpful during a very stressful time. His extensive knowledge of the medical field is incredible and his patience, unparalleled. If I could give 1000 stars, I would.

I only checked five stars because I couldn't give ten. This doctor is a true professional who I highly recommend. Scheduling and courtesy of his staff was top notch. While sitting in the waiting room Dr. G personally came out and escorted me to his office for the consult. How rare is that? He spent almost 90 minutes with me going from A to Z, reviewed my MRI results and performed a physical exam. Immediately put together a plan of action that included blood work and a colonoscopy that he scheduled and personally performed eight days later. DRE, blood work and colonoscopy samples all indicated negative for malignancy. Doctor G instincts told him there was more to the rectal mass and he ordered core sample biopsies. Two weeks later we had that procedure and found a tumor that was moderately differentiated. Fortunately for me it was removed because of limited invasion. The man saved my life. I owe him a debt of gratitude and he has renewed my confidence in the system.

This man is amazing. He is very caring, patient, thorough, kind, and takes time to make you feel comfortable. He was called in to the er I visited and showed up right away and explained everything to me and answered all of my questions. He stayed there and waited for 5 hours until the or was free. I have called him twice since for follow up questions and he calls back right away. The follow up visit was thorough and he answered all of my questions and made sure I felt comfortable. His staff is also friendly and caring. I would recommend him to anyone! I feel very lucky to have had him as my surgeon in a critical situation. He has restored my faith in health care as he actually cares about his patients and their recovery.

Had surgery With Dr G. of course surgical recovery is hard but I had a good overall experience. My initial consult was almost an hour talking about risks and benefits. He answered all my phone calls before and after surgery and was very accommodating to all my requests. Very kind, patient and thorough.

Dr. G is the best surgeon there is! He sat with us for over an hour explaining everything there is to know about my procedure. He did not rush and he answered every question we had. It is hard to find a Dr. like him nowadays. He is thorough and extremely knowledgeable. He deserves 100 stars!

He does everything to get the patient comfortable and back on the road to recovery. He's a no nonsense Doctor,if you want the best it hi
