Dr. Rizk operated on my wife and put two holes in her bowel. She was leaking stool out of her incisions and the Doctor told us not to worry. That same day we rushed my wife back to the emergency room and she needed emergency surgery by another surgeon. She now has a permanent bag and Dr. Rizk never even fixed the problem that we had seen him for.

Dr. Rizk is a wonderful person who cares about his patients and goes above and beyond. I have never seen him be discourteous to a patient (as a previous reviewer has suggested). I recommend him to all my family and friends. He has offered services to ten or more of my friends and family members. All have been very pleased with his results.
