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.

HORRIBLE doctor
I am a resident physician writing this review so I sympathize for all physicians especially EM, but this man is the worst I’ve ever encountered. I recently had an extremely disappointing when my brother came in to be seen. The physician demonstrated a shocking level of negligence and lack of empathy or understanding. Not only did they fail to provide him with the necessary care, but they also refused to address my additional questions when I sought further clarification. This unprofessional behavior left him feeling ignored, in pain, shamed, and in a depressive state. I strongly advise against seeking treatment from this facility and especially this doctor if you expect thorough medical attention. This is unacceptable.

WORST EXPERIENCE!
DONT GO TO SHERMAN OAKS HOSPITAL! I am suffering from severe gastritis to the point I couldn’t breath. I went in a week ago and they prescribed strong antacids which helped a little but when they were done I experienced the gastritis symptoms again but worse so I came back to the emergency room and he took a xray then he had a nurse come discharge me because he said my lungs were okay. GASTRITIS affects your stomach not lungs! The nurse told me that I had to leave and he doesn’t want to come in the room and if I don’t he told her to call security! This morning my stool is black and tarry which I’m experiencing internal bleeding. I have to go to another emergency room. WORST EXPERIENCE! HORRIBLE DOCTOR! The nurse was condescending!

I came to Sherman Oaks Hospital for my eye pain. It took a lot of time to see Dr and after treatment I was still in pain and screaming. I have to search room by room to find Dr and nurse. I told Dr my eye still in pain and burning but he told me you can open your eyes meaning I am lying. Nurses was terrible and Dr did not check with me and I left hospital in pain and have to go to another ER hospital to get better remedy. If you like your live don’t go to Dr Abad and Sherman Oaks hospital.

Terrible! Do not use him!

He did not listen to me. He fully did not give me the time to explain how I was feeling and his overall tone felt condescending. Do not recommend at all!
