I have already referred this provider in the past
Very positive experience.
Dr. Hayek is an excellent physician and a credit to the U.H. System
Dr Hayek is great! His resident was also very good.
The resident doctor that helped gathering my information had the habit of asking me questions and then talking over me when I tried to talk. Very annoying to say the least. He didn't come across well at all with that. Very rude actually.
Very good doctor
I got excellent care and love UH because of great care from great people
Most of the screening was completed by young doctor Dr. Salim Hayek is mentoring. Then after a sort time, Dr. Hayek and the young doctor and one more young doctor that is being mentored entered the exam room for Dr. Hayek to describe the next steps in the treatment process and expertly explained my medical condition, referred me for a visit with orthopedic back surgeon and a series of physical therapy sessions plus scheduled me for an appointment with Dr. Hayek for a injection.
Dr Hayek was very concerned about me bc I was in a lot of pain. We made a plan and it's really helping
Best !!! Great Dr
My experience with Dr. Hayek team was very good. ***
I arrived around 7:25 for a 7:45 am appointment. At 7:30 am they took me back and the doctor's assistant or fellow (forgot name) came in. He did a thorough exam and asked me every pertinent question. He left and Dr. Hayek came in 5-10 minutes later. Dr. Hayek knew everything I explained to his assistant. He did ask his own questions and did his own exam. He clarified his findings and made a suggestion if I wanted to try the time-released medication. Every minute of this visit was smooth. He is so knowledgeable and knows how to speak to a patient in terms we understand. I came first during the visit which is so important. I'm a patient for as long as he'll have me.
Very good listener, thorough, thinking and problem solving about my specific situation, kind, clear communicator, demonstrated great depth of skills
Dr. Hayek has been amazing. He is explains everything, listens to any concerns and always answers my questions. I'm so grateful to him and his expertise!
Great doctor.
Everyone was great
Industry Relationships
University Hospitals is committed to transparency in our interactions with industry partners, such as pharmaceutical, biotech, or medical device companies. At UH, we disclose practitioner and their family members’ ownership and intellectual property rights that are or in the process of being commercialized. In addition, we disclose payments to employed practitioners of $5,000 or more from companies with which the practitioners interact as part of their professional activities. These practitioner-industry relationships assist in developing new drugs, devices and therapies and in providing medical education aimed at improving quality of care and enhancing clinical outcomes. At the same time, UH understands that these relationships may create a conflict of interest. In providing this information, UH desires to assist patients in talking with their practitioners about industry relationships and how those relationships may impact their medical care.
UH practitioners seek advance approval for certain new industry relationships. In addition, practitioners report their industry relationships and activities, as well as those of their immediate family members, to the UH Office of Outside Interests annually. We review these reports and implement management plans, as appropriate, to address conflicts of interest that may arise in connection with medical research, clinical care and purchasing decisions.
