Wonderful Doctor

The procedure was fast and not uncomfortable. I would have liked a little more information prior to know what to expect. Also staff could have updated that there was a delay due to morning procedures. So my rating is not particular to Dr. Awad. I was left lying down and not that comfortable for an hour during the wait.

My wife Victoria and I have been patients of Dr. Avad for almost 20 years.
We are incredibly lucky with this doctor!
He is, of course, a top-class professional and at the same time he is always absolutely friendly, kind, willing to answer all questions.
God bless him with health and complete well-being!
