SHC Patient, Sep 2015

Dr. Norman Rizk could not be better!

SHC Patient, Aug 2015

Dr. Rizk is the BEST!!! Thank you!!!

SHC Patient, Jun 2015

All doctors should be like Dr. Rizk.

SHC Patient, May 2015

This was my first visit. I was VERY pleased.

SHC Patient, May 2015

Quite frankly, Dr. Rizk is the best clinician I have ever met. He is a model or role-model for ALL health care providers.

SHC Patient, May 2015

Dr. Rizk is excellent. He is able to explain well medical problems and demonstrates caring and understanding of my health.

SHC Patient, May 2015

Dr. Norm Rizk is not an extraordinary physician, he is humanist of the highest order.

SHC Patient, Apr 2015

Excellent care with Dr. Rizk.

SHC Patient, Apr 2015

I have sent family members to Dr. Rizk & they were v. v. grateful.

SHC Patient, Mar 2015

Dr. Rizk is by far the best pulmonary dr. I've seen (and I've seen about 4). I think he is an excellent doctor and cares about me. Unfortunately, I still suffer from (unknown cause) chest pain which no one can figure out. Sometimes it is debilitating.

SHC Patient, Nov 2014

Excellent MD.

SHC Patient, Sep 2014

I was very impressed with Dr. Rick. He was friendly, attentive, knowledgeable and spent over an hour listening & answering my questions.
