"This doctor wrote the words "About time" disgustingly on social media after the killing by Hamas of 1300 Israelis - many of whom were innocent babies & children. I'm sure you can find a better doctor that treats ALL people with dignity & compassion. "

"This disgusting vile pile of shit has posted his support and approval of the Hamas terrorist attacks that left 1200 Jews dead. Do you really want your surgeon to be a supporter of murder of women children babies etc.. and a supporter of genocide?? I am sure there are many many exceptionally better colorectal surgeons than this vile piece of garbage. Would you trust your health and life to the hands of somebody who supports terrorists!?!?!!!"

"As an immigrant myself, given the opportunity in the USA to get a degree I?m assuming you saw all different cultures come your way, i’m sure you also have Jewish clients and what you wrote is outrageous and appalling that of one of your stature. You should be brought up to the board and license be revoked. It’s ashame that you chose to do this. There is no place for hate not even in a doctors office! Patience be ware!"
