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 and I highly recommend!
He listened to and has addressed my every concern. He never makes me feel like he is trying to rush my appointments. He is usually running a few minutes behind on his appointments because he tries to give everyone the quality time they deserve. Everyone told me to go to Mayo Clinic, so I did, to get a second opinion and they wanted to take over my treatment. The vibe my wife and I got from Mayo was not good compared to how personable Dr. Ashraf has always been. They confirmed that he was doing the same treatments they would be doing, so I stayed with Dr. Ashraf.

Dr. Ashraf is the BEST
Dr. Ashraf has been my husband's (Esophageal cancer, Stage 4) oncologist since 2017. He is very knowledgeable about options and treatments--very patient with all of our questions. He suggested a surgery that most likely saved my husband's life. Just as important, he is a very warm, caring doctor whose positive attitude has helped us through the years. We've seen specialist after specialist for various issues since being diagnosed and Dr. Ashraf is our favorite. And the nurses at Cancer Specialists are excellent as well. Always a smile, ready to answer questions, and genuinely nice people.

After my referring physician said I could benefit from this new generation of medications, Dr Ashraf told me I had less than 2 years to live and that I needed aggressive chemotherapy for which I would need to pay an expensive co-pay BEFORE treatment could commence. This co-pay would be needed at each treatment which he said would last 10 months. I fired him. This is outrageous.

Dr.Ashraf has always taken care of me since the first word of breast cancer. He was honest and thorough through treatment options, double mastectomy, treatment. He also encouraged me to always think quality of life. Making new memories and living life to the fullest the most important. God certainly blessed me with a great oncologist.

I love Dr Ashraf. I started at CSNF with Dr Dimasio and really liked him. He saw me through my diagnosis and treatment for NHL. He left the practice and I was assigned Dr Ashraf. I so wanted to not like him because I thought nobody can be as good as Dr Dimasio but he changed my mind at the first visit. Always caring, answers all my questions, never rushes me through the appointment. He is a fantastic doctor. I would recommend him for anyone dealing with Cancer or Blood Disorders.

This was my first visit with this doctor. We have just moved to this area and I chose him because of his qualifications and all of the positive reviews. I had a very good consult with Dr Ashraf. He explains and listens really well. What I really appreciated is that he had obviously read my file before he came into the room.
