Our first visit with Dr Ghaly was Feb 2018. My husband had a grand mall seizure in the middle of the night. Emergency room doctor diagnosed him with a Glioblastoma tumor. A close friend recommended Dr Ghaly, and was able to get us in the next day to see him. Dr Ghaly did more than most neurosurgeons would. He was able to remove 70% of the tumor. I believe God led us to Dr Ghaly and we are truly blessed to become a Ghaly patient. Here we are 3 yrs 2 months later when oncology gave him 1- 1 1/2 years most. We consider Dr Ghaly the best in the region. I wouldn’t go to any one else. God bless you Dr Ghaly and all the work God is doing with your hands. Carl and I love you.!
