Excellent Dr, very thorough and took care of me
February 20, 2016Christopher B.Verified patient
I am NOT happy with this office - they scheduled my appointment WITH my insurance information and then called me the day before my appointment to tell me that they didn't accept my health insurance. They only accept PPO's not HMO's at this office, so make sure you know which one you have before you are seen.

too soon to tell

Very busy. He appears to be a good doctor. He spoke to me at my level of intelligence something I really appreciated. The only thing I did not like were the amount of people in the waiting area. It seemed very over crowded as if it were 3 or 4 patients for each appointment time. I will continue to see him but I am concerned about the waiting time.

Seeing Dr. Guirguis was such a relief because he actually took the time to listen to my health concerns, and most importantly, worked with me to develop a plan to manage my chronic pain.
