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.

Dr. Husain did my husbands surgery for colorectal cancer in 2022 & 23 and he was stage 3 in the beginning. He is now cancer free after his radiation & chemo treatments before surgery and they said his tumor was gone according to his team of Dr.'s that were treating him at the time. He still had to have surgery to make sure they got it all. We can't thank Dr. Husain enough for his expertise in this field. Thank you again Dr. Husain and all your staff. You were very caring & understanding but to the point. Don't hesitate to have this Dr. on your side.

met with the doctor and all went well, or so I thought. Months later and we have never received even a phone call. When we called, they said the doctor has not had time to review the records, and then lied about when they received them. On two different phone calls to them! We cancelled all further appointments with him. He obviously does not care about his patients.

After being diagnosed with severe pan ulcerative colitis, it was clear that my colon needed to be removed before surgery became emergent. My GI in Dayton referred me to Dr. Husain at OSU. Dr. Husain is genuinely a very caring person and such a wonderful surgeon! I truly feel blessed to have had him as my colorectal surgeon! Always respectful and kind, but down to business. I would never wish for anyone to have a need for him, but if you do, rest assured you will be in great hands!

I had a partial colectomy to remove a malignant tumor in my colon almost 1 year ago. I can say that my bowel function is back to normal and everything feels brand new. No long-term side effects - very grateful to Dr Husain's team. Only thing is that he was really pushing the total colectomy and only let on about the partial option when I brought it up. Since I have Lynch Syndrome and was 24 at the time, he was really pushing that which I don't think was necessary at all.
