Dr. Zeid, Deborah and the staff are amazing! They’re friendly, professional and welcoming. Dr. Zeid delivered both of my babies. I refer new mamas to his office whenever I can. He is a great doctor; he listens, you don’t feel rushed and he addresses any and all concerns. Highly recommend!

I am so grateful that I found this place through google reviews.I moved out of state and was very skeptical about finding the right OBGYN, tried one and it was horrible. Then I found Dr. Isam Balat I was amazed from my first visit. And after his retirement Dr. Michael took over and delivered my first baby, and now the second one is in the way. A blessing from the sky, the staff is lovely and very reliable. And I’ve recommended him to so many of my friends.

I was recommended to go here by a trusted woman in my life. My Dr. is Dr. M. Balat. He is very kind and empathetic and gentle. I appreciate how he explains things before they happen. All the staff there is great. I'm a nervous patient and they have made accommodations to help make me more comfortable. I was diagnosed with endometriosis through Dr. M. Balat and recommend him for anyone else who suspects they have or have been diagnosed with endometriosis.

Both Dr. Balat (Sr) and (Jr) are incredible MD’s and continue to deserve the “best in class doctor” designations they so often achieve. Dr. M. Balat is always kind, professional, extremely knowledgeable, very well researched and up-to-date on any emerging medical issues related to pregnancy (i.e. COVID times), makes you feel comfortable during the unfamiliar, has a great bedside manner and always perfectly answers any and all of my myriad of questions and concerns that arise. I cannot more highly recommend Dr. Balat and the Plaza OBGYN experience.

I have been seeing Dr. Isam Balat for over 20 years. His medical knowledge, attention to detail, and a desire to completely care for his patients are some of the reasons I will never leave. I suffered with endometriosis and PCOS for years. Dr. Balat did so many things to help us conceive before they became mainstream knowledge. I remember him telling me that he read this or that success story in a medical journal and that research had proven that it was helping patients, so we would see if I also had success, and then sure enough it would become mainstream knowledge a year or two later. He’s humble and willing to look at what leading researchers are finding. I don’t think I would have been able to have 2 successful births without his help. I am forever grateful that my friend referred me to Dr Balat. I’ve never met such a caring doctor. Go see him! You won’t regret it.

Feels like I never left the place. Been going since Dr.Andrade was there. That being said at first I was iffy in returning since she left. As I always go with a female doctor, my choice but Dr.Zeid made it comfortable. Skipped a year of following up but glad I was able to make appt within days for my concerns. Great overall from staff and the Dr!!

I have been going to Dr. Isam Balat for over 30 years. I have trusted him and he has provided the best care for any issue that has arisen. He also is the doctor for my daughter and delivered my grand children. My granddaughters have grown into young ladies, and he has seen them and cared for them. His son, Dr. Michael Balat joined his practice, and he has also seen us periodically. He took care of my granddaughter during her pregnancy. We trust Dr. Michael and Isam Balat impeccably.

I have been seeing Dr Balat since I was 19 years old and delivered my only 2 children. Dr Balat is truly the best to me and best Gyno I’ve seen. He truly cares and remembers details of his patients. Other doctors in the past looked over my problems, he always with out a doubt knows and handles it so well. You will not regret him being your doctor. From his nurses to clerical staff all are so detailed and compassionate. I don’t doubt anything he suggests from medicine to surgery. The world needs more doctors such as he. Thank you Dr Balat your the best!!

Dr. Isam Balat is phenomenal! Before I found him (via recommendation from a family member) I had been to 5 other OBGYN’s who could not help me and would just tell me I was too overweight and never find the root of the problem. Since seeing Dr. Balat I have had 2 kids and yes I need help with my weight and he is helping me there. But he is extremely thorough and takes care of me as a whole from the inside out. Not to mention he is kind, compassionate and personal. I love the nursing staff as well and even his son has come to the practice since I’ve been going and I’ve seen him a couple of times. He’s great too! I can’t recommend this office and these doctors more! I have never felt more seen, hear, cared for and understood so much in a doctors office as I have here. Thank you Dr. Balat you have helped make my dreams of having a family come true!

I really like my doctor, Dr. Michael Balat. He is very personable. He asks relative questions and he asks if I have questions/concerns. Then we start talking and laughing about other things. He's really good!
Keila Harris

Dr. Balat is amazing.... hands down I give him 5 out of 5 stars but my rating would be a 3 out of 5 for the staff. The ones that answer the phones are ridiculous and kind of rude and dismissive. The nursing staff is a bit incompetent as well. It's so sad because we encounter them more than we do the doctor and it's always a nightmare. In 6 years this is my first year contemplating going to a different clinic.Update: thank you for the reply but you don't need to know my name in order to address the complaints. Tell the staff to do better and have manners when dealing with patients. The doctor is amazing. His staff needs work! Also, I just looked and there are 100s of reviews that say the same thing about the staff. So my advise would be don't put too much effort trying to investigate who I am channel that energy in to etiquette training for the staff.

Dr.Zeid is fantastic. Always to the point and answers any questions i have. So far my experience has been nothing but pleasant. I have yet to deliver but I will update on my experience after delivery.Check in and check out staff are always friendly and welcoming. The nurses are all super nice and make me feel comfortable. I have been to other clinics with grouchy staff and this clinic is the opposite, they always treat clients respectfully & with smiles on their faces.Facilities are VERY clean every visit. Lobby/waiting area is immaculate, cozy and spacious.Service times are fast. I have never waited more than 10 minutes to be seen. I’m usually in and out within an hour or less.

Dr. Isam Balat is the best! He is thorough, he knows his patients, and remembers their history. He solves problems and attacks every issue or concern with a favorable outcome. He however will always run late because he has such a full schedule. Even with the delays I have to experience, it is well worth it! I have been a patient of his for the last 10 years. I wouldn’t go to anyone else.

First visit with Dr.Michael Balat this morning and both doctor and his staff were great. I’d say the best experience I have had in an OB practice. Dr.Balat was very straightforward and detailed about findings and tx plan. He took his time to listen to my concerns and I did not felt rushed as I have with previous providers.

I had amazing experiences here being pregnant for the first time. Dr. Michael Balat is by far one of the best doctors I’ve ever had. He listens to you and your needs as a patient, encourages you through labor, he listened to everything on my birth plan and explained everything to me in a way I understood. He’s compassionate and very knowledgeable and is always willing to find a solution that best suits you as an individual. The receptionists and everyone at the front desk are extremely nice and welcoming! Most of the nurses are also caring and welcoming! Definitely will continue care here for any of my OBGYN needs.

Doctor I. Balat is hands down the best GyNo I’ve seen. He is very thorough and truly cares and remembers details of his patients. Other doctors in the past grazed over my fibroid issues, he got to the bottom of it and handled it so well. You won’t regret him being your doctor. From his nurses to clerical staff all are so detailed and compassionate. I don’t doubt anything he suggests from medicine to surgery. The world needs doctors such as he.

Emergency Room visit over the weekend. It’s Monday. These people don’t even know me. I’m in excruciating pain! The Doctor gave me an ultrasound the first day. He comes highly recommended because he’s my daughters’ doctor. Guess what? Surgery is in the morning! He treated me like I was his very own daughter. He found the Issue and took me serious. He said he’s taking care of everything for me to deal with this only a few more hours. I’m doing a review after my procedure and I’m going to let you know the real deal of how everyone treats me. You will not be left in the dark. Talk to you soon ♥️♥️♥️

As crazy as sounds, I've been with Dr. Balat for over 40 yrs. I adore this man. I'm so happy for his successful business and his expansion throughout the years. He was there for me like no other doctor would have been through my pregnancy. Our child was born 12 weeks early and he was there for us at all times. He always treated me as if I was his family. He's delivered two of our grandchildren. I can highly recommend this Practice without any reservation whatsoever! His staff has always been very professional on every level. And the location is extremely easy to access.

Today I was very impressed with the service I received. I didn't have to wait long as I've had to in the past. And Dr. Michael Balat was very professional and helpful today and took his time.

I recommend Dr. Zeid Louay. I first saw him for my 3 month postpartum check up. He was not pushy, he has a high emotional intelligence, and he is genuinely caring. His nurse, Danielle, is efficient and caring as well. Whenever I call she gets back to me immediately with a resolution. This means alot to me.Now, there is a parking fee for the garage and the waiting room is a bit chaotic, but sometimes we have to be understanding in order to get the best care 🙂. I give them 5 stars!

Although I love Dr Balat, the wait time is ridiculous. I always have to wait 45 minutes to be called in. Very annoying. I’m only 13 weeks and I’m seriously considering changing doctors for this reason. I’m pregnant, no feeling good, last thing I want to do if be at the doctors for two hours every few weeks.
