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.

Great Doctor
Always kind. Dr Abboud is the best.

Best GYN!!! He is so kind, patient and extremely knowledgeable. I will never go anywhere else. He takes his time with all his patients hence there could be a wait. However, I will wait as long as I need to for him because he is that great.

Well, I came from another state to see dr Abboud! I don’t know how people can dare leave Bad reviews like this! But I was impressed by his attitude, he knows all his clients, they are all coming back to him! He is very honest, their prices are reasonable, I would say cheap! All girls are very kind there! I wish I could live close to their office! Recommend him to people who want to be treated well!

the most shocking thing was his reaction when I told him I don’t want too many ultrasounds(I already had 3 by the time I was 13 weeks pregnant). He started giving me a lecture about how I don’t have a medical degree so I shouldn’t put my “google search” against his medical degree. You don’t need to be a doctor to be able to read and think for yourself! When I asked him why does the ACOG(American college of Obstetricians and gynecologists) recommend 1,2 ultrasounds per pregnancy he said I’m not reading that correctly(!). From ACOG s website: “You should have at least one standard exam during your pregnancy, which usually is performed ?at 18–22? weeks of pregnancy. Some women may have an ultrasound exam in the first trimester of pregnancy. A first-trimester ultrasound exam is not standard because it is too early to see many of the fetus’s limbs and organs in detail.” I don’t know what s worse, the fact that this doctor doesn’t know this or if he does know and lies to your face. ??????

I had very bad experience with this doctor. First, I have to say that he DOESN'T wear gloves when he examines you. It's disgusting! You always have to tell him to wear gloves! Second, he doesn't speak about your condition much. Maximum he spends 5 min for appointment. Third, he's sending all prescriptions to HIS PHARMACY and not allow to send to your convenient pharmacy! And last one and the most important one! He can easily tell you than he 's no longer be your doctor because you went to ano

This was the most terrible experience I ever had with a doctor and his office. I was scheduled for a termination due to a unhealthy pregnancy. I called to confirm the day before and they assured me everything was set up. The day of as I was preparing to leave my house for my appointment 2 hours before the they called to cancel my procedure because I it was the day before thanksgiving and he was taking the night off. Why would they take my appointment if that was the case! Nightmare!!!!!!!!!!!!

This doctor USED to be amazing. However his competent and nasty staff are ruining the entire office. The front desk girl/manager is rude and acts as if she is doing you favor. As if there arent 100 other doctors in the neighborhood that will gladly take you and be compensated for their services. I'm not even sure how any office can have someone sitting at a front desk with such a sour-puss look on their face. Save your time

Terrible doctor. He rushes to be done with you, does not answer questions thoroughly, and acts like he is doing you a big favor by giving you his seconds of attention. He is unethical, untrustworthy, selfish.... will not go back even if it was free

Dr. Abboud is a good doctor who's delivered both of my children with no issues. However, wait time in the Brighton office could be better - you'd spend there 1-2 hours waiting before you see a doctor. A billing person (I think her name is Irina) is extremely rude and should take classes on how to talk to customers. A lack of simple listening skill of that person is amusing. Besides, she's never in the office and it took me 3 months to finally get on a phone with her just to listen to her yell.

Dr. Abboud offered me a surgery to remove my cyst when it was not absolutely necessary without monitoring it even for a month. Btw it dissolved after a month by itself. The staff, especially girl named Iryna, at his Brooklyn location is very rude and unprofessional. She snapped at me couple of times over the phone and yelled, when I tried to explained that they billed the wrong insurance company for my services. The girls at Staten Island office are always nice and polite. Thank you girls!

I am so grateful to him. He is extremely knowledgeable and informative. I absolutely adore him and wish I still lived in NY so I can see him.
