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.

A great doctor!!
First thing, he is very kind. And he pays attention to you when you are talking. So rare in doctors nowadays. He listens and I believe he cares. I wish I could have him as my doctor for all of my health issues. He is a great doctor and I would highly recommend. I hope he stays in the medical field because I know he makes a difference!!

Dr. Fahmy Offers Next Level Care
Dr. Fahmy is extremely smart, caring, and well trained. When he became my pain doctor, he improves my treatment plan by helping me avoid long term medication effects. If you're trying to decide on a doctor, I highly recommend him. I have dealt with chronic debilitating pain for ten years and he stands out for his level of care because he pays close attention and applies his intelligence to offer you the best quality of life. You will love him! I also know the expert he studied under, Dr. Claudio Carvahlo, who is one of the smartest, qualified, and attentive doctors I've ever met. Choosing the right pain doctor, can save years of your life. Make sure you have someone like Dr. Fahmy who is watching out for you, takes the time to know your situation, and offers cutting edge treatment options.

Best Doctor! Kind and Compassionate
A lot of doctors nowadays don't spend much time with you and listen ,but this is NOT the case with Dr. Fahmy!! He listens and really cares about you and it shows. I was in so much pain ( I have parkinson's) and he was the only doctor I have seen among many that listened to me and had a plan to help me. That meant so much to me. He is so very kind and compassionate. He is one of the best doctors I have seen in the 59 years I have been on this earth. If you get the opportunity to have him as your doctor you will be blessed with his care for you and believe me you will feel better because of it!
