This provider seemed well versed knowledgeable but really unaware of my problem [...]
good
Doc Abdelfattah has great bed side manor and easy to talk with about my injury Very Compassionate caring young doc..I have sent a good friend to see him I have graet confidence in his abilities..He is a very caring doc..It is a pleasure to have him on my team of Temple docs..
This is 2nd time using Dr. Abdelfattah. He is a great surgeon in every way; technically, personally, verbally. I would, and have recommended him to my friends.
most impressed with this doctor's taking the time to explain to me exactly in detail the steps he was taking in order to help me with what is a small injury to my thumb
This was the first doctor visit that I was in and out of the office within 30 minutes. This was a very pleasant surprise.
I was treated with compassion by the Doctor and his staff
doctor / surgeon seemed very knowledgeable, concerned and had a very comforting manner. [...] staff not very attentive
Excellent surgery results.
All good service
