Very good experience
Dr. Ghasham was very thorough, asked me lots of questions and physically examined me to pinpoint the cause of my pain and to determine how it should best be treated.
DR. Ghacham let me know all about the procedure and what to possibly expect. I really like DR. Ghacham.

Hopeful for this treatment

Excellent doctor!
Dr Ghacham gets a 10
Very kind
They were sympathetic with my pain and getting me scheduled for surgery better than my own physician.
He answered every single question we had listed on a notepad before we even had the chance to ask the questions! That shows a thorough understanding of patients' possible concerns and questions about a potentially frightening surgery and outcomes.
Dr Gasham has very good bedside manner, friendly and helpful
She was the best I could imagine. I had recently been there and male clinician was no where close. So I went in apprehensive. I really appreciate her!
Dr . Gasham is a person who Samaritan should proud to have working for them, he is a provider that should be leading doctors in what it means to "care" for there patients
Still in early days but so far I am pleased.
He really was able to put my mind at ease. He is so very knowledgeable in his field. And his ability to explain to me without me feeling dumb is always a blessing. He was wonderful
I felt that Dr. Ghacham felt/was a bit rushed.
He explained my back problems & what I would need to correct the problem surgically in a way that made me feel confident and assured of his skills.
Good.
Due to my age and spine pain, he couldn't help me. I was very disappointed.
Above and Beyond.
Doctor Wael seems very competent. He was courteous & explained the issues very well taking plenty of time to also be communicative, in a compassionate way.
I was very pleased by my visit.
