Amer Kassar's Online Review Report Card

We had an appt 6 weeks ahead of time,and we waited over an hour to see the doctor. It seemed like an assembly line of people going in and out. Each appt lasted about 15 mins, as did ours! He gave us blood test orders but failed to tell us we had 24 hrs to go get the test performed, or they would be void. When I called the receptionist about the orders, she then told me we had 24 hrs. That was two days later She was short with me, rude and dismissive, if you want a doctor who is thorough and takes any time with you he is NOT THE ONE! IF you feel comfortable being part of an assembly line go to him!

None of the GN Endocrinology offices are following the CDC guidelines for mask wearing, even though they say they are! We are in a high risk, level 3 right now! CDC, as of today, says masks should be worn in public indoor spaces in all high level areas! Even the NP and most of the staff were not wearing masks. The NP put it on when I mentioned it, but it never even covered her nose! They treat Diabetics! Some of the most vulnerable to Covid. My fully vaccinated cousin just had Covid and ended up in ICU! Thank God she made it. Four of my other relatives have had breakthrough cases! I have gone above and beyond to protect myself so I do not give it to my 88 year old Mother! Then, I go in this office and half if the staff and patients are not wearing masks! Unbelievable!

Took time to answer all our questions, and we never felt rushed or that he was in a hurry. Explained things well. Always followed up on all bloodwork and kept on top of things. Very good dr.

In my opinion Dr. Kassar was reckless with my care of Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis. If he would have checked my blood work more often I would not have ended up in the ED with what I thought was a heart attack in stead after all the heart tests came back fairly normal except my EKG because I had tachycardia and irregular heart beats because my dose of thyroid meds was too high. So instead of dropping the dose he stopped meds abruptly which can cause severe health problems and wanted me off for at least two months. As time went on I had to seek out a new Dr. because I was feeling worse as each day went by. I am very relieved I have found a new medical practitioner that understands Hashimoto’s and I am being treated for Hashimoto’s once again. I am very glad I did not wait any longer as my blood work was changing rapidly back to being hypothyroid. He cost me thousands of dollars in ED bills simply because he was not doing enough lab work to know that Low Dose Naltrexone prescribed with hypothyroid meds can cause this to happen. In my opinion if you don’t understand the medication you are prescribing then don’t prescribe it. I was on the same dose of medication for 5 years and in the six months I was under his care he upped my dose once the dropped it a bit and then he dropped it to my original dose and put me on LDN. With in a month of starting the LDN is when I ended up in the ED. If he would have just left everything alone I would not be dealing with any if this. I would definitely not recommend him to anyone. His office visits only last about 69-90 seconds per visit so there isn’t much time for questions.

Dr. Kassar is a really good Doctor. I do like most of the staff. We are in a terrible pandemic with Covid 19. No receptionist, M.A., Doctor or employees of this office wore a mask. People were in the waiting room with no masks. I wore mine.

Doctor and staff very pleasant and accommodating. Doctor took the time to discuss my recent ultrasound, which I had in that office. It was easy and fast on a Saturday. The Dr. didn't rush in and out. He was patient and very knowledgeable. He made the visit pleasant.

Wonderful doctor! The staff is excellent! Everyone is extremely knowledgeable, friendly, kind, and caring!!! I strongly recommend this office. The ladies at the front desk are great!!! Kirsten is a great addition to their team!!!!

I love Dr. Kassar and all of his staff. The nurses and receptionist are very polite. Sarah is always helpful ??. I would recommend this Doctor to anyone.

Before seeing Dr. Kassar my diabetes was out of control and my A1C kept creeping up. Thanks to Dr. Kassar and NP Victoria Barajas and their wonderful staff, I have lost 50 lbs in their weightloss clinic, and now am a controlled diabetic with a low A1C. I was also able to come off insulin. I have seen such improvement in my overall health in just a year of being a patient. Highly recommend.

After being treated for my thyroid condition by my PCP for years, I made the decision to go to a specialist. I ask around and Dr Kassar’s name kept coming up. I made the appointment to see him and I’m so glad I did. I’m now feeling so much better. He and his staff are very welcoming and friendly. One thing I appreciate is that he keeps me accountable for my health and will not refill my script if he doesn’t see me on the regular. Thanks doctor Kassar and staff, you guys rock! See ya soon!
