Rami Abraham's Online Review Report Card

Dr. Abraham is what all doctors should strive to be. He genuinely cares and is very personable.

Dr. Abraham is the best he took time and explained everything to me. He was willing to listen to my issues. I would recommend him to anyone.

Best at spending time to keep family informed while also providing the ultimate in surgical care.

I was referred to Dr Abraham after a visit to the ER to have an abscess drained...they recommended I see a surgeon as a follow up. I am so glad that Dr. Abraham was the one I was referred too. He is very personable and patient. I went in expecting to have further surgery - but upon review- Dr Abraham instead spent time examining me and decided to let he heal on my own for two weeks and see where we are then. I am not sure what will happen next- but I am glad that I have met Dr Abraham and am in his care. I highly recommend Dr. Abraham.

Take it from a former OR RN, Dr. Abraham is the best! He literally saved my life in an emergency, and yet is so humble and has the BEST bedside manner! It's rare to find an excellent surgeon with great skills AND a great personality. He just did my husband's hernia repair as well! Fantastic job. Thanks Dr. A!

Take it from a former OR RN: Dr. Abraham saved my life in an emergency a few months ago when my gall bladder ruptured, and is my angel on earth! He also just did a robotic hernia repair on my husband endoscopically and his recovery has been amazing! It is rare to find an incredibly skilled surgeon who is so humble and kind. Best bed side manner which is wonderful when you were as sick as I was!!! Highly recommend him for any type of surgery that he performs as a general surgeon at Forbes hospital in Monroeville!

Dr. Abraham literally saved my life. I had an unfortunate experience with a prior surgery and he explained everything in detail what I was happening and what I was going through and corrected the issue immediately. His bedside manner is exceptional. He really cares about his patients. He treats them with dignity and respect. I am very happy that he was the surgeon on duty that all day. Had he not diagnosed the issue and operated when he did, I would not be writing this review today. I truly owe him my life!

Quick Review: I was incredibly impressed with Dr. Abraham’s bedside manner. He was very dedicated to answering my questions and making sure I was comfortable. His advice for post-op recovery helped me recover and return to activity very quickly. I strongly recommend Dr. Abraham to anyone that needs a hernia repair. Detailed Review: I had bilateral inguinal hernias corrected with robotic laparoscopic surgery performed by Dr. Abraham. This was my first real experience with surgery, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. I am a male in my early 30s who regularly runs and lifts weights. I was referred to Dr. Abraham by my PCP, and was able to schedule an appointment quickly with his office. During the initial pre-op consultation, I was immediately impressed with Dr. Abraham’s bedside manner. He was very friendly and personable, and he explained the surgical process in a way that was thorough but easily understandable. While at doctor’s offices, I tend to ask a lot of questions and spend a lot of time discussing the answers. Dr. Abraham was happy to answer all of my questions completely; it was obvious that he is very passionate about informing his patients and calming their nerves. At no point in the consultation did I ever get the slightest impression that he wanted to just speed me through, as you may find in some offices. Another unique benefit to having the surgery performed by Dr. Abraham was that he himself has had robotic laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair surgery. It gave me even more comfort to know that he is able to fully appreciate every step of the process, from the perspectives of both the surgeon and the patient. On the day of the surgery, everything proceeded on schedule. Prior to the surgery, Dr. Abraham stopped into my room to say hello and to see if I had any questions. I was still under anaesthesia during the post-surgery instructions (these instructions were already discussed with me prior to this point anyway), but my wife was similarly impressed with his bedside manner. In the immediate period after the surgery, I was surprised with how little pain there was (I never needed anything stronger than ibuprofen). I tried to strictly adhere to the recovery plan that Dr. Abraham and I had talked about. I took ibuprofen on a regular schedule and iced my lower abdomen at regular intervals. In addition, starting the day after surgery, I tried to walk regularly on my treadmill. My surgery was on a Friday, and by about Monday, I had very little remaining discomfort. By about 10 days out, I felt pretty much normal. During my post-op appointment, I was again impressed with Dr. Abraham’s excellent bedside manner. He was genuinely excited to hear that I had a good experience in recovery. After a quick check to make sure that the site was recovering correctly, he spent a significant amount of time answering all of my questions related to ramping my running and weightlifting back to normal. In the end, he helped me create a safe progression to return to normalcy. I should note that my appointment was his last for the day, and once again, I never once got the slightest impression that he was trying to finish my appointment quickly; he was solely focused on providing great care. The day after this appointment, I was able to lightly run and lift again with no pain from the surgery site or anywhere in my abdomen. Any difficulty I had was no different from taking 2 weeks off of working out for any other reason. Overall, I can’t imagine how my experience with hernia repair surgery from Dr. Abraham could have gone any better. He provided great care at every step along the way, and his dedication to me as a patient was extremely evident. In addition, the surgery was a success, and his consultation on post-op care contributed greatly to a very fast recovery. I also feel compelled to note that every staff member that I encountered in his office or on the phone was extremely polite and pleasant. If you need surgery to repair a hernia, do yourself a favor and make an appointment with Dr. Abraham; you’ll be in great hands.

Excellent Dr. He is detail oriented, courteous and cares about his patients. I highly recommend him and he was extremely thorough during his consultation.

Dr Abraham is a Very Bright, intelligent and caring doctor. His team was right on point with everything and exceptional at what they do.
