Patients appreciate
Dr. Omar Awad receives overwhelmingly positive feedback from patients who consistently praise his exceptional communication skills and patient-centered approach. Patients repeatedly highlight that he takes time to explain medical information in layman's terms, never rushes appointments, and makes complex diagnoses understandable. His listening skills are frequently mentioned, with patients noting he truly hears their concerns and makes them feel valued rather than just being another chart number. Dr. Awad is described as professional, knowledgeable, caring, compassionate, and personable, with an excellent bedside manner and sense of humor that puts patients at ease. Many patients specifically mention his thoroughness in reviewing medical history, test results, and treatment options, as well as his willingness to involve patients in decision-making. His staff is also praised for being friendly, polite, and helpful.
Patients also share
The primary area for improvement mentioned in reviews relates to appointment availability and wait times for scheduling. Multiple patients note that it can take several months to secure an appointment with Dr. Awad, with some reporting wait times of four to eight months. While patients acknowledge this is likely due to his popularity and high quality of care, the difficulty in accessing his services is noted as a concern. A few reviews mention that while he is worth the wait, the scheduling challenges can be frustrating for patients needing timely care. One review also noted difficulty seeing him, though this appears to be related to the same scheduling constraints rather than any other access issues.
