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.

Another doctor told me I had lymphoma because I had something on my optic nerve behind my eye. I went to Dr. Kassar for a second opinion. He did more test. Here I am 3 years later, I'm not blind, I'm still alive and I have a fatty tissue on my optic nerve that sometimes gets some inflammation from my autoimmune disorder, I have a Lupus anticoagulant. Sometimes it does not want to be nice LOL. That's just life.

I've been to a few Neurologist over the past few years but I will say Dr. Kassar is the best. He is knowledgeable and cares about treating his patients. I had Botox injections done today and liked how quickly he did the injections and it wasn't painful. His staff is also very friendly. I recommend him to anyone looking for a good neurologist.

i have had chronic pain for several years and I was referred to Dr. K to evaluate. Based on my EMG and MRI he began doing back injections on me...as well as prescribing different medications to try to find a solution. I am happy to have been seeing him now for almost 2 years and would gladly recommend him to another.
