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.

Repaired my ankle after a break, while replacing a cast I notcied a blister had popped and crated a open wound, I exoressed concern about the wound and infection but he insisted we just continue without dressing it prior to re casting. It of course got infected because I couldn't clean it while the cast was on and it left permanent discoloration and a scar. Half way through my healing I switched doctors because I was experiencing pain that he was ignoring. Discovered my tendon had healed short

Would never recommend as when he repaired my hip he put in screws that were too long and I had surgery 10 days later to fix it. My regular dr found the problem. He never followed up on why I was in so much pain.

I recently saw this doctor for my back. He said nothing was wrong! I have another doctor now and I'm having surgery for bone spurs and a failed fusion! Abraham is a very poor doctor! He also has a bad attitude. He can't read MRI's or diagnose at all! He should be fired!
