Dr Dali is kind and considerate. He is willing to work with you to get the best information and equipment for what you need. Follow up appointments are close together so he can tell what is going on.

Dr Dali did my gall bladder surgery. Very caring, polite, and did a great job. I healed faster than from most surgeries I have had, which is amazing since I have numerous chronic diseases that impact healing.

I saw Dr.Dali several years ago and he had a great bedside manner. I don’t know what has happened to him. I saw him today and he was one of the rudest doctors I have ever seen. He was demeaning and would not let me get a word in. He had a completely different personality than before. This man was an egomaniac. He put down the radiologist and the PA that sent me to him for gallstones! Terrible

After spending over 4 months with another Dr and still not getting my stomach issues resolved self referred myself to Dr. Dali and within a week gallbladder surgery and feeling great. Wish I had went to him first!!! Getting a second opinion is always a good thing. Would highly recommend to him!!

Did not like him. A waste of my time and money. He is obviously lacking something about his male hood, he has to build himself up by his rudeness and ego.

Dr. Dali has performed numerous surgeries for me. No matter what time of day or night he has gone out of his way to make sure that I received optimal care. He is a skilled surgeon that knows his stuff!
