    Dr. Wassef was my husbands Dr at the VA. I was limping & walking with a cane the day my husband was seeing him. My Drs had told me for years the pain in my left hip was from my bursae & to loose weight & it would go away. Dr. Wassef asked me to walk about 10 feet down the hall & back. Then asked what my Dr had said was wrong I told him. He told me he didn't believe that was the problem & to as for an MRI. I did & come to find out what was really wrong was I had A vascular necrose of my femur & socket, I had ร  total hip replacement. The bone had no blood flow so it was dead. That was 20 years ago now. My hip still works fine. I would still be seeing him if his office was still taking my insurance. He & his staff were great & care about you.

    I have been having very severe lower back pain on and off for the past four year that was leaving me totally bedridden for a couple of weeks at a time. During that period, I have seen three chiropractors, half a dozen back specialists, as well as a neurosurgeon, but they gave me no answers and little consolation. Then when I flared up again this past January, my general practitioner suggested I see Dr. Wassef. And he was the answer to my prayers. Dr. Wassef is caring, compassionate, highly knowledgeable, but best of all, heโ€™s patient and he listens. He listened as I told him my story; he asked some specific questions, and he told me that what I have been having is a severe muscle spasm in the right quadratus lumborum muscle. I was still in pain at that time and very stiff, and he asked me to do a couple of simple exercises to stretch the muscle. At first, I was hesitant because I thought it would be very painful. But he was insistent and said to trust him, and I did. To my surprise, I felt immensely better after these two simple exercises. The pain and discomfort were virtually gone. I was able to drive home pain-free. Needless to say, I continue to see him when any back issues arise. Dr. Wassef takes an interest in you as an individual. He responds very quickly when you have a question or concern. He's never too busy to talk to you. In closing, Dr. Wassef is an amazing doctor and I give him my highest recommendation.

    Dr Waseff is such an amazing Doctor. I am a chronic pain patient who was on VERY strong medication for 6 years and he was able to get me off all of them quickly with the help of suboxen. Many people are afraid of changing their meds.. but it saved my life! I lost 40 pounds and am enjoying a pain free life now. This doctor is a God send.
