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.

Best I’ve ever had
Dr Hassain is the best primary care physician I have ever had. I was blessed to find him as a new resident he has wonderful bedside manner and he listens patiently. His waiting room is FAST and the doctor never keeps me waiting. His staff is friendly and courteous always wearing smiles he addresses my concerns immediately and he makes me feel like I’m included in my care plan. He is awesome!

I love Dr. Hussain. He is very patient with his patient's. Treated all my health issues with accuracy and professionalism. He treats patients with integrity and honesty. He will not cut corners he treats you by the book when it comes to his doctoral license. When depending on his care he expects you as the patient to help yourself with your own health by following doctor's orders in his treatment plan if you have no plans of getting well then don't go to him, If you plan on improving your overall health then he's the perfect doctor. I never had any problem getting seen when my health posed an emergency. Staff is friendly accurate and will follow doctors orders as well. I'm a lot better now thanks to Dr Hussein's treatment.

Hard of hearing. Says "huh?" a lot. I'm not comfortable with him. Rushed your appointment. Doesn't take time to let you ask questions. Doesn't support mental health meds.

If you need a quick, in and out visit then this is the place. Although the staff are friendly from the beginning to the end, Dr. Hussain's exam seems less than essential for making a diagnosis or meeting all the key elements for the visit. I stayed in one position(sitting) for a complete physical and the exam was VERY minimal for a complete physical. His patient education was rehearsed and did not change based on my circumstances. He had a script to follow and he did it.
