Thanks to technology, all these reviews have been a great help to many. Once I saw this man, I was compelled to write something-even after all this time. Saw this guy 25 yrs. ago and thanks to his incompetence and sheer neglect I was left unable to have children. In my mid 40's now, and not a single day goes by I don't regret seeing this man. Yes, things in life can always be worse and we should count our blessings, however, I did not reach this philosophy in my 20's, when I was newly married and deprived of giving birth! He told me he was removing a cyst from my ovary, 6 weeks before my wedding!! He removed the entire ovary, telling me 'that's why you have two'. Not before insulting my father by asking if I slept around. Which I did not!! I have always been responsible. Problem returned quickly and without a single test, he ordered surgery again! Not this time. How could I risk the remaining ovary! Needless to say the ovary was saved but my ability to have children was not! I have heard so many other horror stories through the years and it breaks my heart. I did try to stop this man. I did try to bring charges, but doctors have quite a 'clique' themselves and I was unsuccessful. I did find an amazing doctor, but was never able to have a child. Use your judgement. See whomever makes you feel safe. However, the moment a twinge of doubt enters your mind-get another opinion. We have one life, and we deserve to live it to the fullest. Don't let this guy have a chance to take one of the most precious gifts of life away-the ability to have a child. Seeing this man will forever be my greatest regret in life! Nothing has ever been more life altering!

Dr. Saad office is all over the place. The staff picks and chooses who they want to be nice to, and new staff every month. There a PA named Linda who could be very nasty, she thinks she is on top of the world. Dr. Scarantino is very nice, he is good I would see him if he was at another office, hate going to howard beach location, the Westbury location is much better but you can wait a long time.
