Obsidian health is like a high end luxury country club for anything urology and of course, vasectomies. I had the most memorable painless experience! I drank my favorite drink during the procedure, watched a show, was treated to a great steak - basically, I was pampered. I had no side effects and was able to be up and running within days. I did not feel rushed nor did I feel like I was at a clinic. Clients from around the world fly to the USA and enter Obsidian's doors just for Dr. Geib and his team! I am super OCD and picky. TRUST me when I say that if you are considering a vasectomy or any urological issues, look no further - go to Obsidian Health!

First referred by my Primary Care in Fairfax, I continue being a patient even though travelling from Ashburn to Fairfax isn't easy. However the staff is great and Dr Patel in particular makes himself very available to patients either in-person or via e-mail. I find him very attentive to my concerns and as an overseas traveler, he ensures I have what I need in my trips. He also ensures follow-up as necessary with labs and takes the time to explain the findings. He and his staff are prompt regarding prescriptions and in the past were also very helpful getting insurance approvals for certain medications. A long drive but worth the attention patients receive.

Tried to make an appointment recently and was treated by the staff as if I were belligerent because I asked if there were appointments available earlier than 45 days in advance and if I could get a message to the doctor beforehand. I ended up missing having to miss the appointment due to a stomach bug, called with no answer, nowhere to leave a message, and no email address listed for the office, and am now being told it was my fault they didn't receive notice and that I'll be billed for the appointment. Commonwealth Urology is an insurance mill not a care facility. Uncaring, rude, robotic staff and doctors churn through 4-5 patients an hour with little care other than how much they can bill them.

Dr Holt is an excellent doctor: however because he is so good he has become over booked.. it is…read morethat simple. He has not read the MY CHART which is how INOVA communicates after he did a surgery. So as far as I am concerned and I am retired fron medicine: many of the 'support staff" that means nurses do not comprehend what is in the charts.. and even the doctors seem to not be able to make a decision, including Dr Holt w/ regard to long term patient care. I am not sure why. Dr Hold needs to either cut back on this patient load at Fairfax INOVA; or take a vacation and make some decisions about how one person cannot cope w/ his patient load. His staff (nurse Stephanie) was excellent but the FFX INOVA hospital itself was a total mess the day of the surgery. I like him very much, this is a very difficult time to be in medicine.

Nurse/admin staff is as usual. His office in the building was a little hard to get to. The details: Dr Basile's nonchalant and calming demeanor exemplify the ease at which he executes his work-solidifying his vast experience and how routine this work is for him. During the procedure we chatted about what was being done, small social banter to ease my mind, and in 30 minutes flat I was out and taking the weekend off. First visit for a consult, was a simple walk-through of my decision, risks, and what encompassed the procedure. Nurse/admin staff was attentive and straightforward. I was lost in the beginning, trying to find his office; it's in the basement down a narrow hallway. Second visit for the procedure, the office was busier and my appointment started 20 minutes later than planned. Nonetheless, schedule aside, the procedure was executed as planned and I just had to recover over the weekend. I will definitely go to Dr. Basile in the future for any other urology related inquiries or concerns.

Dr. Al-Juburi is very busy and kindly took my wife in on short notice after we were unhappy with…read moreanother urologist. My wife had a serious bacterial infection previously and pain (not bladder pain or pain similar to UTI which she is familiar with - but pain around her private parts - a deep "different" type of pain). Dr. AJ was busy, clearly, but he listened and he and his nurse checked her out. They took a urine sample. He prescribed Uribel. Another general doctor said that Uribel has serious side effects and it does not appear, from the symptoms described, she has an UTI - that doctor believed Uribel was unnecessary. I sent an email to their office and explained: - We did a Sonogram, - Another doctor recommended a urinalysis and urine test for culture and sensitivity and we have not done these yet. - An infectious disease specialist said the bacterial medicine will not interfere with the results. - We still have the pain described within our visit. - Dr. Al-Jaburi mentioned a particular test that could be done at surgical center. Can we set this up as we prefer having a definitive test over taking medicine to alleviate pain? They responded, "take the medicine first. Don't rush the procedure. Schedule another visit if you want". We did NOT take the medicine. Another urologist said Uribel is a powerful medicine and said it did not appear to be a suitable choice without knowing more. The same urologist performed a test and then stretched her uretha and alleviated the pain that may have been caused by the bacterial infection. I realize judgement was applied and this can be imperfect. Perhaps Uribel was a good choice but it appears probably not. Regardless, we felt that it was a hurried decision to prescribe that without knowing more.
