Dr. Abaid is truly an amazing doctor. From the very beginning, she showed incredible kindness, compassion, and professionalism. Her bedside manner made my wife and me feel very comfortable and cared for. She patiently answered all of our questions and concerns, taking the time to explain everything clearly. The surgery went perfectly—smooth and successful. Right after the procedure, she informed me immediately about the outcome and provided all the necessary details. We are very grateful for her outstanding care. I highly recommend Dr. Abaid to anyone in need of an excellent surgeon!

Dr Abaid was the first doctor who actually listened to my issues and took everything into account before formulating the best treatment options available. She is an amazing surgeon with the biggest heart ever and is beyond intelligent and passionate about what she does!

God bless Lisa Abaid! Before my salpingo oophorectomy, all of the nurses were ranting and raving about Dr. Abaid, once I met her I understood why. She could not have been more kind, compassionate, and caring, her presence alone and beside manner was so comforting it felt like a big warm hug from grandma and put all of my worries at ease. The incision is half the size I anticipated and follows the shape of my stomach beautifully. Even better, I will be able to completely hide it in a bikini this summer and I will not have to worry about cancer as she was extremely thorough. Dr. Abaid has not only saved my life this time, but I had such a great experience that I am no longer afraid of doctors and will never prolong an appointment. I wish every doctor was half as amazing as her and I’m so eternally grateful she exists and decided to take on my case!

Dr. Abaid is hands down one of the very best doctors I've ever been to. She performed the DaVinci laprosopic surgery on me. From the moment I met her at my consult her kind and warm bedside manner immediately put me at ease. And she's a highly skilled surgeon and I can't recommend her enough.
