Never got to the visit. The doctor got on the phone after a professional referral from my surgery and before I said a word he claimed I yelled at him. The guy is completely nuts, unprofessional and obnoxious. Don't bother.

Dr. Ghaly gave my life back to me. I suffered with back pain for years limiting my mobility. Following back surgery, I became addicted to pain meds which almost ended my life. I was discharged from many doctors offices because of my addiction leaving me helpless. I was told by a friend to search the website "healthgrades" and that's where I found Dr. Ghaly. His reviews on helping people with interventional procedures versus opiates were remarkable. Dr. Ghaly was so kind, gentle and empathic that I knew he was going to help me. He weened be off my meds while I went through a series of injection procedures. He and his staff are so caring. They treat you like family. Dr Ghaly saved my life. I am now able to persue my professional career effortlessly. Do yourself a favor and make an appointment to meet Dr. Ghaly. He will save you too!
