What a great experience! Booked the appointment the night before on ZocDoc. The staff at the office were attentive and friendly. Dr. Morcos was friendly, personable, and most importantly, knowledgeable. Looking forward to returning in the future, which I rarely feel after a doctor visit. Highly recommend.

I couldn't believe what a compassionate, caring, kind, physician I was sitting with. He is by far, the BEST doctor I've ever visited in my LIFE. He took time with me [45 minutes] and listened to my concerns and issues. This was by FAR, the best medical professional I've ever visited in my life and I am 60 years old.

Dr. Morcos was very nice and his staff was great. Another patient was ahead of me and his appointment took time, making the doctor late to see me. He was very apologetic, but was unable to see me for a long period of time due to the situation.

He was a vary good doctor and took plenty of time to find out about me and my health conditions. He was also very informative and is extremely knowledgeable. In fact, he did some of the early research on a supplement I take regularly. I very much like this doctor.
January 28, 2015Joel G.Verified patient
Dr. Morcos went "above and beyond" expectations. He spent time discussing cardiac issues, recovery of broken arm, and, as the Primary Care Provider (PCP), reached out to insurance carrier to approve continued treatment of my macular degeneration by my Retinologist. He then called me to let me know. AWESOME!
January 12, 2015Frances C.Verified patient
Dr. Morcos was very personable and spent time explaining the various health issues I face in a unhurried and comprehensive manner. He was genuinely concerned with me and listened very attentively while making a diagnosis and recommending tests and medications decisively; all of which prompted my trust in him as a fine doctor.
December 21, 2014Tom A.Verified patient
Very professional but long waitti time. My appt was at 130 and didnt see him til 300. I went in for pain relief and was given ibuprofen that to my surprise actually worked. I was disappointed that i didnt get something stronger but he was right about the ibuprofen and now i dont have to worry about getting addicted and going through withdrawals so that was cool. He is a cardiologist and i was looking for more of an on going primary. I feel like i wasted my money since i paid cash and didnt really feel like i built a relationship with him. I dont feel like he did anything wrong though. I just think he is a different kind of doctor than i was looking for. I am searching for a long term doctor for my primary care and he seems to specialize in cardiology.

Dr. Morcos was very thorough in reviewing my 83-year-old mother-in-law's complex medical history. He ran baseline tests since she was a new patient and made modest changes to her existing meds. He was firm in his recommendation for her to get a hearing aid and a new walker to maintain/improve her cognitive and social involvement and her ability to increase her activity level, respectively. She really liked the doctor and his recommendations. Excellent experience all around!
August 15, 2014Frances C.Verified patient
I was very impressed with the office staff and the Doctor. I had to wait quite a while. They were running behind. I'v heard that before but this time was different, the Doctor came out and greated myself and another patient in the waiting room. He smiled and said hello and that he had'nt had a break all morning and really just needed to step outside and he would be back shortly. Just that acknowedgement made such a differance especially the fact he did it in person and made it personal. He returned shorty and we were seen a few minutes later. :)
March 20, 2014Christine S.Verified patient
Dr. Morcos is really an amazing doctor and you could tell he really cares deeply for his patients. However I will not be going back which has nothing to do with Dr. Morcos and that is the sad part.
First I waited for 2 hours, Dr. Morcos was clearly extremely busy that day and he was sure to explain to me that he had some very serious cases that came in that morning...my case was not so serious and he spent so much time with me I can only imagine he would spend much more time with other more serious cases. But like I said this has nothing to do with Dr. Morcos himself but instead his TERRIBLE staff member. I understand she was also very busy that day but I sat there patiently for 2 hours and when she finally called my name I literally had to run after her to follow her into the exam room where she proceeded to talk so fast I couldn't understand what she was asking me to do and not once said hey thanks for waiting. She spoke to me with her back turned the entire time with the same warmth as a prison guard. When she asked me to undress for the EKG (my first ever) she did not even leave the room so I could have some privacy and when I hadn't undressed properly because she was talking so fast in her directions I was scolded by her. I barely had enough time to put my clothes back on (again in front of her) before she was out the door and asking me to follow her. After my exam Dr. Morcos asked her in front of me to fill my Rx which she clearly acknowledged and asked if I could wait a few hours to pick up (because they were so busy) to which I said no problem. Later that evening (5 hours later) I went to the pharmacy after work where they had no Rx for me. At this point I was feeling SO much worse than i did before I went into the doctor. I left her a message to call me in the morning which never happened so I ended up calling her again to ask her to call in the Rx which se said she would do right away. TWO hours later she called me to ask for the pharmacy information. I didn't see the call because I was working and getting ready to leave town later that afternoon. When I saw the call I was on my way to the pharmacy before i went to the airport. I had to call her AGAIN and this time had to give her the pharmacy information including googling the address and phone number...its a Rite Aid ITS LISTED and Dr. marcos seemed to know exactly which one I was talking about. She also asked me what the medication was called....HOW WOULD I KNOW??? Finally over 24 hours later I was able to get my Rx. Only after realizing that she had given the Pharmacy my wrong phone number (which she called earlier) wrong address and spelled my name incorrectly which was a whole new ordeal. To be Candid I went in for anxiety and this experience literally sent me over the edge. It is one thing to be busy at your job but when you decide to be in health care and have no warmth or competence you are in the wrong industry. I would have had better luck at a free clinic. I am saddened that I will have to find a new doctor now because Dr. Morcos is really incredible but I just can't risk another experience like that.
