Dr. Elbaridi and his staff are top notch! Great service & communication. I was in excruciating pain and they got me in for my procedure a day early.

Dear Dr Elbaridi,
Thank you so much for making our visit to Loop Medical a memorable one. My husband and I visited your office last week for his increasing back pain and we knew after meeting your staff, your work environment was a positive one. When we arrived, staff promptly and warmly greeted us and provided a hassle-free check in process. Your care was exemplary, and my husband is still talking about the wonderful service and competent care he received. We are very confident in your ability to meet his needs and we have not hesitated to recommend you to others.
We would definitely come back.

The doctor was pleasant and patient with me while I administered the test. For some reason the nasal test tickles and I have a hard time staying still. Overall good experience, his office is very new. It was under construction during my visit.

I logged into the patient portal and I can’t find my results. I call the office almost 10 times straight before 5 PM and nobody answers and the prompts don’t get me anywhere. I have no idea of the test results when I need to take my kids to camp tomorrow. Thanks for nothing
