He was straight and to the point
Providence Patient
I really appreciate the time dr Jabbar took to understand my concerns. The only nit would be to really discuss with a patient the risks and trade being made with an irreversible spine surgery. But most of that is me to ask all the questions I need to make an informed decision. I feel we rushed into a decision.
Providence Patient

Dr Jabbar was my surgeon for a cervical procedure. I continue my follow-up with him to assure everything is still good. He is a very patient doctor and aways takes his time to explain things til it's accepted. What I like the most is his honest opinion when I ask a question. No matter how hard the question he answers completely and throughly and makes sure as a patient I understand. I try my best to follow up with all his suggestions to help me feel better and have a better life. So important to listen and follow through with what a Dr suggest. Thank you Dr Jabbar and his Swedish team!!!
Providence Patient
I received a diagnosis and proposed treatment from a doctor at Evergreen Hospital. I was leary of that proposal and requested a second opinion from Dr. Abdul-Jabar. The second opinion I received is for a far better solution for my neck issue. I am so glad that I saw Dr. Abdul-Jabar!

Dr Abdul-Jabar was great with explaining the way forward and breaking down the MRI and keeping me informed.It was a bit much seeing a nurses aid, a nurse, a physicians assistant, and then the actual doctor as I felt I had to explain everything 4 times.

I had a great experience with Dr. Abdul. He greeted me with a warm smile and was very professional throughout my visit. He listened carefully to all of my concerns and took the time to have X-rays done right away to make sure my neck was healthy. I truly appreciated how thorough and attentive he was. You could feel the positive energy from everyone in the office-they were all kind, respectful, and well-mannered. I highly recommend Dr. Abdul and his team for their excellent care and professionalism.
