excellent
I was completely satisfied with my visit. Everyone was extremely friendly, courteous and efficient! It was a lovely experience
Dr. Rizk is one of the most competent doctors I've ever been treated by and, by far, the most 'human' professional i've ever met. He is kind, caring, patient and concerned about people. I have great confidence in everything he says and does. And his office staff are the best I've ever been treated by. I'm grateful to have them take care of me.
Dr. Rizk is an excellent doctor/surgeon. He along with his staff are very polite and professional. I highly recommend Dr. Rizk ??????????
Hi, Dr. Rizk was very helpful and very professional and very friendly and I understood everything that he said clearly. He seems to be somebody who knows his stuff. I am very glad I got to meet him. Thank you.
