“Very attentive and professional and friendly specially Pricilla and the lady that did my screening but I was a bit mad when the other lady on the other side when I ask her some question she was very sarcastic and then when I gave her back the clipboard she snatched it from me and continue being rude. But kudos to Priscilla and the lady that did my screening and the lady that did my X ray. Doctor A was awesome. ”

Dr. A was thorough with his assessment. I felt comfortable with his knowledge-base and understanding of what I've got goin on. I'd recommend anybody to him any day of the week!
Thank you!
Verified patient
I really did like the doctors bedside manners. Some doctors and people in general do not have that. Also, with the lady Veronica who helped me she was so friendly
Verified patient
The doctor has two offices. Zocdoc had me scheduled at one location but actual visit was at the other location. This was my only gripe. Good service all around so far.
Verified patient
Dr. Abdelfattah was extremely nice and thorough. His team took my X-rays quickly, got me into a room to be seen by him quickly and he himself was extremely thorough and professional. He helped get me an MRI scheduled, and I will definitely be using him again for the follow up appointments for my shoulder pain.
Verified patient
Overall, it was a lovely experience. Very nice front and back office staff. Doc was to the point and referred me to other specialists that can help manage my issues.

I have seen Dr. Adham Abdelfattah previously with outstanding results. Atat is why I returned, again great results. I do recommend everyone to see him. I messes my appointment up. Being 84yrs old it becomes more common. The office was able to fit me in. How great is that!
Verified patient
Friendly staff and answered all my questions
Verified patient
Made my appointment for back and feet pain but was told I can only be see for either or. They give you X-rays without talking to the doctor. thought it was a little odd but what do I know. In the end the Doctor explained why my feet and my back hurts, gave me pain medication and sent me to physical therapy and a follow up appointment in 4 months.
Office staff at new location no people skills
Verified patient
Zocdoc failed at scheduling.. The app asked for insurance imagery.. 3 times. Then the doctors office called and asked if I was attempting Zocdoc appt.. Doc was not available at that time - only today.. worked out, but... integration matters. I'm happy because I found a problem early that would have gotten much worse. Zocdoc did provide a good doctor, but that's about it.
Verified patient
Found my husband son and I 1st doctor here and have been with that doctor since 2016 we absolutely love him and now we needed another doctor and decided to look on Zoc doc given that zoc doc was simpler than going on Google Finding the doctor, calling the doctor and seeing if they're accepting new patients and trying to schedule an appointment with someone. here on zoc doc you can see all the drs in one place with times dates location phone number reviews, And you can include your insurance information all-in-one place in less than 2 minutes versus being on the phone. Doing it this way I can continue to make calls and schedule an appointment at the same time this is so much easier and all the doctors have been absolutely wonderful here on Zoc doc. This drs and his staff are super ftiendly and Dr Ads bed side manners were great and he is really nice. Thanks Doc for all the help.
