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.

Very inconsiderate during examination. He said that I needed to relax. Obviously, a patient in pain can't relax. He was also bending my knee harshly which made the experience so much worse.

Highly recommend - Currently treating 3rd injury
He has treated my son for fractured foot. He provided care for my daughter with a fratured finger, and we are now back for treatment relating to a knee injury. I continue to return because Dr. Al-Alim has been amazing for my family! He has a passion for sports and does everything to get the kids back out there, Safely. We drive 40 minutes, one way for appointments, and there are other Doctors closer, but we know the care we are going to receive. He is prompt and on time with appointments, however never feels rushed. He is thorough and detailed with great bed side manner and explanation that is understood. His nurse is amazing as well and the kids always love to see her! He cares!

Dr Al-Alim was kind and empathetic to my injury. He did not seem rushed while he was in the office with me and took the time to explain very thoroughly my injury and answer any questions I had. He even took the time with a follow-up call to see how I was doing. I would definitely recommend him!!

This provider was extremely professional and knowledgeable. He was thorough and spent time going over specific exercises and body mechanics. He was genuinely concerned about my future ability to maintain my current activity level and was certain to cover all bases so there was a smooth healing process. He is an active, sports guy and understands the importance of maintaining lifestyles without making unrealistic goals. I would HIGHLY recommend patients of any age to him.

Dr.Al-Alim was the only doctor i seen who wanted to help resolve my issue and not just give me narcotics for my pain. I have had pain for years and just wanted it fixed. He is a great doctor and helped me live day to day without back pay . Would recommend him to everyone . Great Guy !

Dr.Al-Alim was one of the kindest Doctors I've ever met. He was very friendly and made sure we understood everything in the appointment. He made sure i properly healed and felt better not just temporary fixed the issue. On my second visit he did an injection that was needed for my issue. I had no pain while the injection was completed and he made sure i fully understood the procedure with no questions . Any question i had he answered in a way i understood without any worries.

My appointment was at 2:40. I was told I was next for an hour while I watched him go into other rooms continuously. This doctor is a joke and if you have places to be DO NOT COME HERE. It is now 3:31 and I'm still sitting in The room waiting while he takes came of other people. Never coming back again.
