He was very personable and professional. He explained everything to me clearly and was reassuring.
Excellent Doctor Seeing him for almost 35 years
Very thorough and informative about your condition.
He is the BEST! At 74 years of age, I have never had a doctor that takes his time with you, explains, in-depth everything that is happening to you and everything he is going to do to take care of your problem. He makes you feel so comfortable and he also has a humorous side. Plus he gives the BEST shots ever. And this is coming from a person who is and has been terrified of shots. He gave me 2 shots in my hand and I never felt them. He truly is the BEST!!!!!
Very impressed with how informative he was . I felt very comfortable with him. Great Doctor
The Doctor is always personable, but the wait time was awful.
I have been seen Dr. Fakouri for several years now. He has done 4 hand surgeries including CMC Thumb joint replacements. I would not trust my hands to any other doctor. I have referred several people to him who were also satisfied. If you need a hand Dr. this is the one you want.
Doctor truly professional he looked at my hand and sent me to X-ray to confirm his diagnosis showed me a video and explained to me. Osteoarthritis gave me shot and gave options to repair problems
Everyone was exceptionally nice.
He's personable, makes you feel comfortable .He took the time to explain what he's doing and why, and answered any questions, I had.
