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.

Dr. Abolhoda has a very easy going nature. He was pleased with my husband’s recovery progress after his open heart surgery, and he answered all of my questions. We’re so grateful to Dr. Abolhoda for his skills and his compassion.

Great doctor and surgeon...
First, Dr. Abolhoda was recommended by one of the cardiac nurses, who is a friend. I can't speak more highly of Dr. Abolhoda and his staff. Having worked in the medical field for several years, I can say in contrast to many doctors I have known, he was forthright, didn't pull any punches and answered the questions I had pre-op, yet was very personable, had a great bedside manner and demonstrated a very kind and gentle demeanor. During my hospitalization, he came by to see me several times and brought his staff on a couple of occasions. After double valve replacement and an ablation, at two months, I'm easily back to where I was six months ago.
