Dr. Sadiq Saleem Sikora Reviews

I'd been to three other doctors for this nagging abdominal pain, and they all said it was stress. Dr. Sikora actually listened, asked different questions, and ordered a specific scan the others hadn't. Turns out it was a rare type of hernia. He explained it in simple terms, drew a little diagram on his notepad, and the surgery he did fixed it completely. I finally feel like myself again.

Had to get my gallbladder out. Was pretty nervous about the whole thing, but Dr. Sikora made it feel straightforward. He walked me through each step, didn't rush my questions, and the surgery itself was fine. Recovery was exactly how he said it would be a bit sore for a few days, then better. No surprises, which is what you want.

The hospital itself is nice, really clean and calm, which helped. But honestly, it was the nurses and the front desk people who made a difference. My appointment was running late, and the receptionist kept me updated without me having to ask. The nurse who took my vitals was so kind; she could tell I was anxious and just chatted about normal stuff to distract me. It felt like a team effort, not just a doctor's visit.

What stuck with me about Dr. Sikora was how he talked to my elderly father. Dad gets confused easily and repeats himself. The doctor never showed a hint of impatience. He sat down, looked him in the eye, and answered the same question three times with the same calm tone. That kind of respect and patience is rare. It meant the world to us.
