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.

Genuine Conscientious Caring
From my first consultation to the final visit following surgery Dr. Fares gave wonderful care. He assessed the tumor area and mapped an appropriate surgical plan. In doing this he genuinely listened to my concerns and gave thoughtful explanations. He gave me the time I needed in each appointment. It was his thoughtfulness, caring, medical insight into how to best have a positive surgical outcome and his surgical techniques that made me feel confident in his care. The outcome was total elimination of the tumor taking edges that insured clean borders, success. Follow up care continued with the same conscientious attention to my comfort and healing successfully. He had a knack for adding a touch of humor to add to his patient skills. The office reflected an extension of him with their welcoming, caring and positive nature. A complement, a word of encouragement, a smile all came together for a positive experience in totality. Highly recommend Dr. Zouheir Fares

Dr. Fares treated my father throughout his cancer journey. He was knowledgeable, patient and kind. He took time to listen to us, answer all of our questions, and treated my father with care and respect.

I went to him as a last resort. I've lived with pain for so long it became normal. Dr. Fares is the only one that told me he'd fix me. Boy was he so right. I would recommend him over and over.

After my second visit for the shot near my groin I wound up in the hospital with clots in my right leg from my femoral vein to my ankle. Hospitalized for 5 days and now on blood thinners for at least 6 months. Doctors at hospital said it was due to shot received. I tried to let the office know but the girl who answered the phone seemed unconcerned

I was very happy ?? with my visit and loved Dr. Fliegner. Would highly recommend this office in fact my son was a prior patient and referred from his primary doctor. I decided to change doctors because of that reason, I so impressed with her.

I would not recommend to anyone. Difficult to get ahold of. Did not respond to messages I sent but sent me several about giving them a review. The doctor was literally walking away from me as I was trying to ask him questions. I felt like he rushed the appointment and just didn’t seem to care at all. I will never go back to him for anything.
