    Dr El Rassi took extra time to discuss my recovery and show video images of the surgery site.

    Dr El Rassi is an outstanding physician and surgeon. I myself is severely immuno compromised patient. I was so worried about this surgery. His skills are superb. I had not a single complication. He explained everything so well to me. Even in postop some issue of congestion, he suggested certain maneuvers and it worked. These days it is hard to find Doctors who not only has this level of skills, but also pay attention on patients small annoying needs like congestion as for example. He truly loves and cares for his patients.I'm very thankful to Dr El Rassi as well to his team at OU Otolaryngology department.
