My son recently went to see him. He had to ask for a cholesterol test and then the doctor called in wrong medicine. Then his staff was so unorganized they couldn’t find test results. They also told my son and my self to stop calling so much. I’m so glad we switched to Dr. Crawley at Geisinger. He is so professional.

Dr Aboughnia saved my life in Dec 2016 as my EF reduced to 5% and he wA PROACTIVE ENOUGH TO SEND ME TO HANAHAMN UNIVERISTY hospital for further testing and procedures which could not be preformed locally. This man is excellent as well is DR Samir Pancholy his teacher. I would rate bothe of these humble men 10 on a 5.0 scale.
