Dr. Moawad is incredibly knowledgeable, accommodating, and kind in his practice. He has restored my quality of life after successfully diagnosing and excising my endometriosis when other doctors and gynecologists dismissed my concerns or only tried to address one or two of my symptoms. He is truly the gold-standard in endometriosis care.

My appointment with Dr. Moawad was great. He is very kind and I feel confident in his diagnosis and expertise. He was able to review my MRI and determine what my issues were after other doctors have failed to see what was going on. I feel I made the right choice after extensive research on finding the best provider.

I wish I had found Dr. Moawad years ago! I am so grateful for what he has done for my health. After years of being gaslit by other gynecologists, I was so relieved when he met me with compassion, respect, and kindness as well as a trauma-informed care approach. He listened to me and patiently answered my many questions from my first consultation to my post-op appointment, and his sense of humor kept me laughing along the way to put me at ease. Most importantly, he identified the source of my pain just from a pelvic exam (later confirmed by MRI) that every other gynecologist had failed to find before. That alone was so validating! I left the office feeling so hopeful about my path forward in Dr. Moawad's care. I'd also like to give a big shoutout to Penny for her relentless professionalism, patience, and kindness. She swiftly responded to my bombardment of questions along the way with grace and understanding. Plus, she and Dr. Moawad go out of their way to make sure the surgery is as affordable as possible. I had my first consultation in mid-September and was scheduled for surgery by early October. They are highly efficient and demonstrate that they truly care about their patients! If you want your quality of life back, Dr. Moawad is the surgeon for you. I'm less than two weeks post-op and already feel fantastic. Thank you to everyone at CEAPS!

Dr Moawad is kind attentive and knowledgeable. After trying to get an endometriosis diagnosis from four different doctors, he was the only one to take my pain and concerns seriously.

Dr Moawad is an excellent doctor, I have struggled with endometriosis for years and have been told there is no hope many times. Dr Moawad was able to accurately diagnose me in 10 minutes and also tell me there was hope and a path forward.

Treatment with Dr. Gaby is NEXT LEVEL. This was my second excision surgery and my first was a positive experience. But this is AMAZING. I am writing just hours post op and the level of mobility is unbelievable. Before going to Dr. Gaby I went to GW, MedStar, Inova and a colorectal surgeon consult. None had the ability to perform my complex surgery without a secondary team. One hospital flat out stated they did not have doctors on staff who could handle it. If you cannot afford out of network that is understandable but if you can make it work you WILL be astounded by the difference. Living with endometriosis is terrible and your quality of life slowly deteriorates. Having a specialist who can see in the charts what others can't, can recognize the disease in all forms in surgery, spare fertility (or just understand if you don't want the side effects of a hysterectomy) and understand fertility concerns and even know and name symptoms you didn't think were connected, is outstanding and life altering. Going to CEAPS is one of the best medical decisions I've ever made and I hope other people facing endo will make the same choice. ***Additionally, the team is amazing. In particular Penny. Penny is so kind and caring. When I pushed off my surgery there was no pressure and when I called urgently hoping to get back on the calendar and put an end to suffering she listened and showed real concern. ***To the one star rating who suggested he may just be a business man- he has the skills to back it up. If you join Nancy's Nook you'll see there is a divide between surgery as the gold standard of care and gynos who give bc and lupron. CEAPS provides the gold standard of Endometriosis care.
