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.

I never felt rushed. All questions were answered. I was allowed to view a video of the potential procedure. All risks were identified and discussed

Precise and to the point
Dr K was very reassuring to me about my bleph. He asked three times if I had any other questions. He was to the point and professional. I look forward to my first of a few surgeries with him. The previous two bad reviews cannot possibly be true.

Forever grateful for Dr. Kassis!
Dr. Kassis is an incredibly busy doctor, yet every time I saw him I felt that he knew me and remembered details about my health. I had two migraine surgeries. First the temporal and supraorbital area and then 6 months later the occipital nerve release. I suffered from migraines my whole adult life and they had been debilitating for the last 20 years. Every day I was either having a migraine or recovering from one. I am a veteran and the VA sent me to Dr. Kassis. The VA pays so little to outside doctors, but I was never treated as a charity case or 'less than.' I received world-class care and I am forever grateful because I have my life back. Dr. Kassis is the best. I should also say that the staff and nurses were amazing and when you have an appointment, you are seen on time or early! If you have a question post-surgery they are available by phone easily and always reassuring. I feel so lucky to have been given these life-changing surgeries!

These bad reviews are silly
Aside from telling you how he totally changed my life with an insanely successful migraine surgery, it’s important to note that he has a great sense of humor. If someone thought he laughed AT them - they didn’t read the room right. Dr K made 7 years of months-long migraines vanish. My parents came with for the pre-op appts so he met them. 2 days into my recovery, my dad had a horrific brain hemorrhage and he checked on my dad (who was in the ICU) in the same hospital. Because my face physically never healed because I was in the ICU for a month with my dad, he did a corrective facial fat graft for me. Both procedures took hardly any time. Amazing bedside manner for being so crazy busy. Such a great team that works with him. He’s engaging and genuine. Honestly can’t wait to get a beautifying procedure from him!

This man is the most arrogant and condescending doctor I've ever met. I'd rather suffer in silence than ever see him again.

Go elsewhere
Treated me poorly. Kept interrupting, laughed at my ultrasound, refused to do anything at all despite clearing having medical necessity. I would not recommend this man one bit.

Migraines & A Doctor Of Hope
I suffer from headaches every day & migraines, leaving me debilitating a lot, I needed help, couldn’t handle the serve pain. I started looking for help, by luck I accidentally ran into Dr Alkassis, interview on a procedure to relieve pain from sufferers like me. I met Dr. Alkassis several weeks later, filling out paperwork over 15 pages of my medical past & present. Where my headaches start and finish. How long etc. He walked my husband over the procedure and percentage of relief we hope to achieve. If the first procedure works, we would proceed to the second part, we prayed he would take my case, we were relieved to hear a yes! Our second part was my insurance the longest wait, maybe just me. I can tell you he really cares about his patience and completely honest the outcome, even showed us the surgery, a wow! Dr.Alkassis is the best in Nashville, an expert on this procedure. I highly recommend him if you really want help.
