10/2023. After having epidural by Ghaly, i am having painful headaches 😩 and stiff neck,nausea. I never had such pain. His PA was very compassionately gave a medication that is the first step in possibly fixing a Epidural leak in my spine, caused by a nick or puncher in lining of the spine when Ghaly did injection. I was seen by Ghaly after 2 months of constant headaches ( i was not originally there for headaches it was back pain)and i seen a different side of his personality that many reviews tell of him.. accusatory, hurtful statement and narcissism at me the patient 😪. I can say. My prayers go out to him.. he is very successful, 3 practices, money and power. So he can not care or say anything to you that no other Professional Would ever say to there patient.! So my rating is just be careful who you let inject into your back.. it could make matters worse! Again Ghaly is well known and big practices but is not perfect.

This doctor is terrible, the worst we have ever seen. He is trying to claim that pain that is felt is not real but yet he is trying to sell himself on nerve fusions to take away pain??
Go figure? Saying there is nothing wrong but yet wants to do something to take away the pain.

This doctor is a joke and should lose his license

This is not to mention his terrible bedside manner And lack of communication skills.
This has go to be the worst Dr

I also heard insurance companies pay him pretty well to say what they want him to say during exams that would favor their outcome.

This is another reason why his license should be revoked.

He is the most compassionless Doctor I have ever had the displeasure of meeting. DIDN'T care about what I was going through ..just wanted to make sure I DIDN'T get the pain meds I've been on for more than 20 years. He's a disgrace to the profession and if you're looking to see him as a Dr...I would think twice. A walk in clinic is better than this poor excuse of a Doctor. Someone needs to report him for what he has done to Dr Pecks patients (that he took over for Dr Peck)like someone else said in this feed....he didn't care what pain I had...he didn't care how long I've been on them with no issues....he also didn't care that I could have a seizure...he tells me if I have a seizure..."go to hospital...you have insurance". This is my first time EVER writing a review. I felt compelled to after seeing him for 5 minutes. That is the total amount of time he spent with me before taking away pain meds I have been on for 20 years. If you're thinking of using him...walk...excuse me RUN in the opposite direction.

Dr. Ghaly is very rude. My mom is 71 and has lower back pain that shots down the legs. She had 3 injections and they did not work for her. On 10/23/2020 she went for a epidural steroid injection, we let him know t
hat she only speaks Portuguese. I was waiting for her I'n the waiting and heard my poor mom screaming and crying that it hurts. He yelled at her and didn't care to explain any thing about this injection. My mom came out and could bearly walk. She had tears running down her face. I got very upset that he told her to sit down very rudely. I asked him why she's crying he said that injection is very painful again he failed to tell me or my mom that info.. so my mom told him she will not get another injection and he very rude said if you come or not it won't hurt him in any way. He yelled at my mom and said the guy helping with the injection speaks Spanish we are not Spanish we are Portuguese. My mom told this doctor with a little bit of english that she knows for some one to go out and get me. He is very rude, he doesn't care about his patients, the worst bedside manner. I and my mom don't recommend this doctor to any one.

He does not give a you know what. He will not listen and assumes everyone is a drug addict. I have never been treated this way.

Arrogant, terrible excuse for a pain Doctor. Treats patients like addicts, will not prescribe medications enough to manage chronic pain, does not listen to patients or neurosurgeon in his own building.

Very unprofessional. Did not read records before seeing me. had no idea what injections I had done before. Only cares about doing procedures that do not work. Talks over you at all times. Is not interested in how much pain you are in. He is only interested in his own agenda. He is very arrogant and his ego is bigger than he is.

I find the bedside manner of this Dr. rather unprofessional. He refers to you not by name but "my friend". Issues with meds and called to inform him, over the phone he acted un-concerned. When I finally was able to see him he agreed to a take down method of meds. Needless to say the prescription he wrote did not carry me through a month. I have had to wait for 5 days for them to get the refill called in. I would not recommend this Dr. to anyone that is in pain. See someone else
