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.

One of the good ones. Gives excellent care. Concerned and compassionate.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Awad?
I went to Dr.Awad based on positive reviews I read online. When he saw me, he told me that I have to pay for the visit up front (even though I have insurance). He spent 5 minutes with me. Nothing was done about my condition and he told me that I have to go to the hospital to pay for a test. This doctor is only here for money and lacks compassion for his patients. He is in the wrong profession. That was my first and last visit to his office. I would not recommend him to anyone.

Dr. Awad is a very experience and skillful doctor His diagnosis is accurate his right medication is very helpful. I had an operation he came at 3AM to check on me at the hospital he is a patient doctor not a money doctor. Would trust and recommend him for his honesty and skill.
