I simply can not express how thankful I am to Dr. Sammy Eghbalieh for saving my leg from a horrible gun shot wound that struck my artery. Without him being on duty when I was taken to the ER at Providence Holly Cross in Mission Hills, I am certain that I would have lost a limb just as I was told by the paramedics would probably happen. I honestly feel I was provided with the most superior caliber surgical procedure that is currently available and I have Dr. Eghbalieh to thank for this. He is an absolutely phenomenal doctor and also such a great person.
On multiple occasions while in the ICU when I experienced sudden pains to the leg the nurse called to inform him of my condition and Dr. Eghbalieh immediately came to see me as soon as he could to check on my condition himself and on one occasion he even drove from his home in the early hours of the morning just to make sure everything was OK and was prepared to take me into surgery just in case anything was wrong.
There is a level of care I would expect a doctor will provide but I was just blown away and honestly felt like Dr. Eghbalieh treated me as he would someone in his own family. Not only did he make me comfortable with the recovery process after the operation he also informed me of all options available for me clearly and always asked if I had any additional questions.
I am so grateful to have had this doctor when I needed him the most and will always remember how much determination he had to be successful with the challenging problem I was facing. Dr. Eghbalieh you will always be my Hero. THANK YOU!!!
