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.

Doctor very pleasant, personable and concerned about your treatment and progress. Glade he stuck with me and we were able to resolve this issue together.

Find another infectious disease doctor!
Dr. Kabbesh has a horrible bedside manner! In addition, he was going to send my son home with a 14-day, toxic IV treatment without proper monitoring to prevent kidney damage. Dr. Kabbesh is dismissive, rude and egotistical. Not the type of doctor you need when your child has a life threatening disease. Do your due diligence and find a qualified doctor in the field of infection disease medicine!

Review of Dr Kabbesh
I met Dr Kabbesh at mercy general where I had an infection of my right hip that I recently had replaced. I thought Dr Kabbesh was pleasant and answered our questions. He was efficient with his time so one just needed to be ready with their questions and if you were he took the time to answer them. I thought he did a nice job of identifying which antibiotic was needed and I would recommend him to others.

Very rude, disrespectful, condisending, and has no bed side manners! When asked what test he was deciding to run he answered with "whatever ones I feel necessary" When asked what a typical turn around time for results would be he answered with "whenever I get them"! He was directed by my husband (the patient) to call me if I wasn't present when discussing care and he responded with "no I will talk to her if she's here"! Filed a complaint with the Cali medical board.

I saw Dr Kabbesh a few weeks ago. I thought his staff was very nice and thorough. The whole mood of the office is uplifting. Then I met Dr Kabbesh and was very impressed with how he went over my whole medical chart( which is extensive) and asked many questions as to what I believed was the problems I was having. He was attentive in his listening and very sympathetic in his mannerisms. he made me feel he could solve my problem and did and notified all my other Drs. I would recommend him to anyone

Very disrespectful and dismissive. Does not show empathy or compassion. He seems to not believe his patients. Should not be a Physician if he does not care.

Terrible doctor. Spent less than 10 minutes with me and basically threw me out of his office saying I did not have a fungal infection. Well, he was completely wrong! Tests did confirm a fungal infection!! He should turn in his medical license and sell dog food for a living!!
