Great physician and very helpful.
Kind. Informative, Great bedside manner- effective treatment
Amazing Doctor and staff Would definitely recommend to others
Very great doctor. Always very interested in solving problem. Always friendly .
Very knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly….sometimes running behind on the scheduled appointment time.
Dr. Saleeby listened to what I had to say. He did a thorough exam. I felt very comfortable with Dr. Saleeby and his nurse. I felt for the first visit he made a good decision for the first treatment. Unfortunately, I have not had any relief so far but am not blaming Dr. Saleeby because I have a very bad case of rectal prolapse so that is not Dr. Saleeby's fault. I'm not sure what needs to be done but I am in bad shape. Thank you, Dr. Saleeby for anything you can do. Terry Pitts
Very quick procedure
Dr. Saleeby is personable, listens to patient, and explains what he does. The staff is very friendly and welcoming.
Dr. Saleeby really provided great care, compassion, and relief to my husband. Also, afterwards he explained in great detail what he needed to do for after care. We were very pleased.
Dr Saleeby is an excellent proctologist.
