Seen quickly, efficient & concerned MD & staff.

Everything went very well like always.

Dr. Ewad is a great doctor. He works with me fabulously. I would recommend him to anybody.

I'm always saying to people I love my south coast medical teams! They got such a great attitude towards patients. Helpful, supportive, informative and caring. I feel as though I have the best care with them

Dr Awad is a good listener and explains what is going on with my lungs. He is satisfied that because the nodules in my lungs, having stabilized for 5 years, that it isn't necessary for me to see him again. If there is any change in my health, he will see me again. He and his staff are always very professional and caring. I am always seen in a very timely manner.

Fantastic physician and staff. Very pleased with this service!!!
