I am completing this review for my 80 year old father who does not have internet. In addition to all the high marks relayed from my Father, I can say that Dr. Abbas was super accommodating to me and my family following my father's lung surgery. He answered all questions and returned several times to ensure my father, and his entire family was accommodated. He even offered up his personnel cell number in case we had additional question.. Excellent service, very personable.

Tremendously satisfied with Dr. Abbas, his staff and both facilities, Riverview Medical Center and Bayshore Community Hospital care that was provided to me. There was minimal wait time within his office and Dr. Abbas took his time, answered all my questions and concerns. Would recommend to family and friends.

Last summer I was diagnosed with esophageal cancer and was treated by Dr. Abbas. He performed several endoscopies as well as the esophagectomy. He and his staff are most accommodating and responsive. I cannot say enough good things.
