12 months agoWhen my mom was referred to Dr Alattar, she weighed 114 pounds.Quickly, she inspected my mom and sent for blood work and tests. They found colon cancer stage 3. As soon as results came in, Dr Alattar sent my mom for surgery. In less than 15 days, her hemoglobin shot back up to 14, and she was feeling much better. Then chemo, tough, but she made it through. No hair loss or anything. It was an amazing turnaround. After, she was scheduled for quarterly checkups. Dr Alattar found ovarian cysts that she did not like. Once again, in 15 days she was operated on. She has the best referrals, and acts very quickly. Now, it's been 2 years and Dr Alattar is amazed with how she's made a turnaround. It's beautiful to still have my mom thanks to Dr Alattar. From the bottom of my heart and our family, thank you

3 months agoA scheduled MRI was not performed. I left messages with the nurse and on the patient portal. No one returned my call or rescheduled a different test. She abandoned me. I found a different oncologist.

a year agoDr Alattar is a good doctor, but was very disappointed when my mother had blood work back in May 15th and never got a call to give her results. Not hearing from them, we assumed it was negative. On Aug 7th, she went in and Dr Alattar told her, she was positive for a rare type of leukemia! Why did they wait so long, if she needs to start treatment as soon as possible?

a year agoDr Alattar is an amazing doctor! She knows each of her patients and their health history providing guidances to relating to other symptoms and makes referrals as necessary. I know this cause Iโve seen her effectiveness and efficiency in providing the care one of my clients I bring to her office. If thereโs a doctor that cares for their patience, you can definitely trust Dr Alattar and her team with Oncology Consultants!
