Patient Reviews
Sep 09, 2021
Dr Saad is an incredible physician. He is the best at what he does, and I would much rather have surgery performed by an aloof expert instead of a quack who’s a really nice guy. We aren’t there to make friends! We are there to be treated by a Dr who is the greatest in his field! Dr Saad is the best there is!
