Dr Abuzeid is a one of a kind person. Very intellegent , articualate and infomative ! Extremely impressed ! Energetic and shown that he cares about his patience .
I feel like one of my more minor issues was not properly addressed, but the core issue to which I saw Dr. Abuzeid was addressed with such surgical precision (pardon the pun) that I don't see any reason to complain.
I just have the highest praise for Dr. Abuzeid! I am not an easy case due to recalcitrant sinusitis, and I appreciate his problem solving and not giving up!
I enjoyed that the DR didn't hesitate to provide scientific explanation to me. My symptoms were actually a combination of multiple Independent root causes but the doctor was able to isolate them by listening to me.
Both the PA and Dr. Abuzeid were helpful in explaining how the healing process is working.
Dr is skilled and caring. System and processes challenging. More by the book, not person oriented in terms of processes. Dr had to compensate
Probably the best initial doctor visit I've had in 50yrs of my life. Everything was explained so well that and my treatment plain so clearly explained that I didnt even have any questions to ask. Amazing.
My Dr was extremely attentive, asked and answered questions for me, very empathetic . I have not seen a specialist before and I cant say enough on my appointment with UW, it was by far the most informative and pleasant Dr Appt
Dr.abuzeid is hands down one of the best doctors I have ever had. He shows that he cares about each of his patients. He explains what he is doing as well as why he chose the treatment method and it makes it so much easier to be involved in your own care.

Once again Dr. Abuzeid is the best doctor I have ever been a patient of and my quality of life has changed tremendously since our first visit. He is great at his job and easy to talk to which makes it easier to talk about my health.
*Dr. Abuzeid was thorough in his exam and details of the surgery and all the risks. He answered all my questions and gave me a lot of confidence in the success of removing the pituitary tumor! The receptionist staff out front were very supportive in finding follow appointments that met my schedule. I was very pleased. 100% satisfaction.
Dr. Abuzied was great, once I finally saw him. UW needs to hire more staff - your probably know that, but what is it going to take? It is often a very long wait time to see doctors and schedule surgery. [...]
