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.

Definitely would not recommend!!
Rushing from the time you come in. Can’t give you the time of day! Will absolutely not call you, if asked for a call to discuss something with your dr. Told she doesn’t do personal calls . No Dr/ patient relationship at all!! No empathy or care! The worst!! Very sad.

Very thorough and down to earth Doctor. She really listens to every little detail from you, takes her time with you, makes sure you understand and that you feel comfortable with every part of the plan. I feel so blessed to FINALLY be in good hands again with Dr Fatma Deif. I’ve seen numerous physicians and none cared to listen to what I was saying. Dr. Deif addressed every concern of mine and I can’t express the relief I feel. AMAZING care!

Horrible doctor. Went in due to serious health scares after wearing a mask. She refused to hear me out or do any tests! Then, she wrote a letter stating there are no known issues preventing me from wearing a mask. She hardly looked at me let alone examine me. You're fired, Dr. Deif.
