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.

He is wonderful. he was very compassionate and understanding as I was in tears!!!

Dr. Obaid I would recommend but not the hospital.
he's good but the hospital is horrible. No communication at all. Paper work undone, lag in scheduling times, takes too long to get things done. I will be canceling much needed surgery due to delays in pre op testing. I am tired of waiting-it's been months. Would NOT go there again.

Dr. Obaid & his staff provided exceptional and compassionate care to me through a very challenging medical situation. The nurses in his office were friendly, thoughtful, and kind. They also made the process run smoothly by taking care of everything that was needed for diagnostic tests and insurance pre-authorizations. Dr. Obaid’s expertise and experience from the Cleveland Clinic were very reassuring and comforting especially since this was my 1st surgery. He was very approachable and always available to answer any of my questions. He never made me feel rushed or unimportant and was very good about following up with me directly to see how I was feeling. I also appreciated that he conferred with other doctors and specialists to make sure the best medical decisions were being made for me. Most importantly, I felt Dr. Obaid cared about me and that I could trust him.

Very polite and pleasant office staff as well as the doc. Short wait times and clean spacious offices/exam rooms ...If I could give 10 stars I would. This doc and his staff were such a breath of fresh air.

Would recommend Dr. Obaid to anyone. He was professional, kind, attentive and accessible. He took the time to give explanations regarding my brother’s plight, plan of his care and listened to our concerns. And thanks to his skills he’s now on the road to recovery.
