Good experience. After the visit, I still have some questions about my surgery, due to my hypothyroidism/Hashimoto condition.

Dr. Moazzez & his staff are awful. I had a lap band & for several years it was going ok. I did lose 100lbs but then something was not right. For 6 months ever time I saw him I was telling him & his staff that something was not right. He kept telling me that everything was ok & I just need a fill but that was not the case & all he had to do was send me for an X-ray. The band had protrude into my stomach & I almost died. ALL HE HAD TO DO WAS SEND ME FOR A X-RAY!!

Dr Mo & Dr Joe, are the best doctors the INOVA FOH has. Both have compassion and their bed side manner should be taught in all colleges, clinics, all over the world.

I was one of Dr. Moazzez's first RNY patients when he moved to Inova Fair Oaks. Six months later he also performed my gallbladder surgery. I have lost close to 200 pounds and have kept it off for 10 years successfully because of his caring attitude for his patients. He is by far one of the finest physicians I have ever had.

I reviewed many doctors before I went with Dr Moazzez and I feel I made the best choice! He is kind, caring, listens to you, and is an exceptional surgeon. I have referred several people to him and have heard nothing but rave reviews in return. Thanks!
