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.

Outstanding cardiologist
Yes, he and the echocardiogram staff were running late. But always with Dr Kassas it’s worth the wait. He’s extremely knowledgeable and open with his patients—well this one anyhow. Did a mitral valve clip for me and I’m feeling fine.

Nurses not reading my chart before contacting me
Sine my last procedure which was aborted through no fault of the physician. I received 3 post op calls from nurses that did not read anything in my chart regarding the surgery and were planning on post op scheduling I worked in Healthcare for more than 50 years and never spoke to a patient without a cursory review of the main part of my history
