I have been a pediatrician in the same location in Fridley, Fridley Child and Teenage Medical Center, for 20 years. I enjoy taking care of children from birth till they go to college. I am currently starting to see some newborns of parents that I took care of as children. I am the Medical Director of Pediatrics at Unity Hospital and was voted as top pediatrician in Minnesota in 2009. I am very friendly and believe in the importance of parents input when we discuss the child's health.

I saw Dr Sakkal as a child and loved him. Now I'm a first time mom and there was no doubt in my head to go see him when I had my son. He is always prompt in calling us back when we have questions, willing to work with us to see us if he deems necessary, and often calms down the 'new parent' jitters. He has always been willing to listen to what we were saying and work it through with us.

Dr Fadel Sakkal is the worst pediatrician I have visited for my kid. He is all about money. His only goal is to see as many kids in a day or in a hour and make more money. He wont allow parents to ask any questions and he will tell no time to answer as he has another appointment. Even for yearly visit or a well child visit, he will just spend 15 minutes.. We changed the pediatrician after this experience.

Dr. Sakkal is the best doctor. He is knowledgeable, kind, compassionate, caring, and professional. We are so lucky to have found him six years ago.

My sons love Dr. Sakkal. He is wonderful with them. It is not often that a 4 year old wants to go see the Dr. even if he knows he is going to get a shot. He is the nicest Dr. I have ever met. He is very knowledgeable and comforting. He interacts well with children of all ages and shows that he cares about the entire family.
