Dr Fazel was able to save me from having surgery through a very specialized endoscopic procedure to remove a growth from my colon. All the other specialist I met said surgery was the only option. His expertise saved me from a major operation.

Dr. Fazel is one of the least professional doctors I have encountered. He performed an ERCP on me and once the biopsy results are available from the lab, I tried to contact his office to get the biopsy results. It took a whole week before he gets back to me, and this is after multiple attempt to email him and call his office. I actually end up getting the results from my PCP. When you have cancer, a week is a long time to wait for a result. And mind you, there was no sympathy when he announce the "cancer" news.

I have seen multiple doctors for my digestive problems wthout success. Dr. Fazel listened to me and spent the time needed to diagnose my problem. He accurately diagnosed the cause of my problem and I am doing so much better on the treatments he prescribed.

The worst Doctor and Staff I have ever encountered. Very rude and disrespectful. All of them think you owe them. It seems that patients come last, money comes first for that circus.Oh, and be careful of how much they charge you and your insurance. And be prepared to wait a long time to be seen by the doctor.
