Yusuf I. Abdi, PA-C

The staff is great and usif is awsome

so far good, I go to the Maine General Hospital to get my blood drawn. I wish that there was someone there, better at it at this facility. no Disrespect.

I am beyond grateful to have Yusuf as my care provider. He is extremely knowledgeable and friendly.

The PA that I saw was very open to listening to my concerns. He was great!

Overall I feel comfortable with the people at Oakland Family Practice.

All the people at Oakland Family Medicine have made going to the doctor's office more of a comfortable situation as I would think any doctor's appointment makes most patients anxious. Since having Yusuf Abdi as my physician my acceptance of medical procedures and keeping those appointments has greatly improved which considering my age is probably a good thing. I appreciate the open dialogue and Dr Abdi's willingness to go above and beyond to explain conditions and treatments in a way it is easily understood.

Everyone was comforting and professional and Yusuf was thorough, attentive and explained everything to my absolute understanding.

Yusuf ,'my PA is excellent. I have had him for 5 years. . Excellent at his job.

Very professional.

The Doctor is fantastic. I am so happy that I have him. He listens to my concerns. He makes me feel very comfortable.

Very disappointed. I scheduled an assessment months ago and was very anxious about this appointment, only to find out the "assessment" was a 15 yes or no questionnaire, and NOW I'm scheduled for an actual assessment, which is what I was trying to do in the first place. I didn't need to wait months to come in and spend 30 seconds answering 15 very generic yes or no questions that could have very easily been done over the phone or through an email as to not waste anyone's time. I literally spent more time setting up this appointment (quickly) over the phone with staff than it took to come all the way in and answer those 15 questions. Not to mention that I'm pretty sure this appointment ate up my one free visit per year, so that also now feels like a waste. I was very anxious about this appointment leading up to it and thought I'd be getting some form of help or options, only to take this "assessment" and have to anxiously wait another few months for the next step. Again, the 15 questions that took me 30 seconds to answer could have been done over the phone or through an email so that this "assessment" process could be more streamlined. Hopefully this works out in the end but I'm also suddenly quite open to finding another place for care because what I just went through with Oakland Family Medicine was truly unfortunate and a super waste of time.

The staff is professional, caring, knowledgeable, and accommodating. Mr. Yusuf is an amazing health care provider who I trust with my health care. He always does a thorough examination and takes the time to address my needs and concerns.

Thsnk you!

Yusuf is above excellent at always taking the time and covering all my concerns and issues. I am exceptionally lucky to have him as my provider. Thank you for having him on your team.

Always completely satisfied with the quality of service.

At Oakland Family Medicine always a good experience. With Follow My Health, not so. Having to do the Verification Code is difficult and worse is asking you to check the My Health for a clinical item when they don't say which category in that category is so you have to check each one until you hit the right one--just name Results, Meds, etc. so it's one click away.

Oakland Family Practice is great and I always get access to great healthcare Yusuf Abdi is wonderful

Oakland Family Medical, Yusuf Abdi and the staff, both in the front and in the back, are some of the most professional, kind, intelligent people that I've worked with, especially at a hospital. I'm really grateful. I can always get in when I need to, and they're attentive and take their time, and I feel valued and like I'm very informed every time I go.

Very pleasant from entry to exit.

I am particularly grateful for your staffs understanding of my social aversion.

Oakland Family is always professional and helpful

The dr I had was not my usual dr but he made me feel comfortable and was well aware of my health history!

Yusuf is wonderfully supportive, kind, and provides a safe, comfortable environment whenever I visit. His medical assistant is also very welcoming and kind, and I feel in good care with both of them.

Yusuf was thorough. I felt like I was listened to and they showed empathy and respect. I felt like they included me in the decisions on how to proceed with my issue which is important to me. The front desk staff were kind and pleasant to work with as well.

So, I always feel safe and heard whenever I go. Yusuf is wonderful in helping me and going over everything. The staff is great. I really can't ask for anything more and I have told other people of this place.

Yusuf Abdi is amazing. There are not enough words to express my gratitude for his exemplary care. He goes above and beyond every single time and I am so thankful.

Very professional

It was my first visit. Staff was friendlyand knowledgable. I anticipate a good relationship with Oakland Family Practice.

Yusuf Abdi is awesome!

The nurse was very nice and helpful and I loved my doctor!

It was a great experience and I really like my doctor he answers all my questions

I needed to be seen that day. They got me in and took care of me. I trust this team.

Nice doctor

PA Yusuf's team makes you feel they're with you all the way through to your recovery.

Very friendly, courtesy and professional staff. Dr Yusuf is extremely thorough and knowledgeable. Great personality easy to talk with.

Dr. Abdi is great, even though we recently moved 1 1/2 hours away we stay at your practice because of his excellent treatment.

Yusuf provided ample time for discussion and to answer questions. Through in wellness check.

Hi, I want to definitely thank the receptionist who took my call last week and got me in this past Monday. Amazing customer service and I felt very valued as a patient and my needs were definitely taken care of. Yusuf is also amazing. I hadn't seen him in such a long time and he is always charismatic and treats me very well and I really like how he went over everything with me with my anxiety and really let me know that he cared and was concerned and I was very impressed, to say the least, is what I'm trying to say. And, yep, really glad I got to see Yusuf again and I'm glad to keep being a patient. Thank you very much.

Yusuf is great. i feel very lucky to have him as my PA.

The intake person who takes your blood pressure and asks the questions before the physician says their name and always has the name tag flipped backwards so that you can't read their name. And it's just very awkward when you want to refer to them and you have to say that person. I don't know their name. Other than that, the desk people are wonderful. The care team is wonderful. So I hope that's helpful.

I think it was wonderful that I was treated like a human being, not just some patient that was just here and there. Everybody smiled, they were polite, they were professional, they knew their job, they gave me proper answers, and I love Dr. Abdi. He's absolutely wonderful. He's caring, he's polite, he's just everything. And when he said, are there any other questions that you would like to ask me now, I said yes. Can I have you forever? And he said yes, that's the plan. I am thrilled. This is a brand new experience for me in a new facility, and I am very, very pleased with what it is that I have seen so far, and I thank you so much for your help. Have a good day.

Dr. Abdi is a wonderful man, very knowledgeable, and he is very, very interested in my health. I couldn't ask for a better PA. Thank you. Bye-bye.

Very good, competent care. Thank you.

I appreciate that I am treated as a person and not a number. My PA, Yusuf Abdi takes my home life into consideration and listens to me.

Im in good hands and have great results!!!

I am so pleased having Yusuf Abdi, PA, has my practitioner. He is smart, patient, and friendly.

I am so thankful for Yusuf Abdi! I have never had a doctor listen so patiently to me! He never fails to take every concern I have seriously and I always leave feeling better than when I got there! I pray he never leaves this practice! Also I'd like to note that my medical assistant is fantastic! She is so kind and genuine! I'm grateful to have this provider and the entire staff in my corner! I highly recommend them!

Absolutely amazing. Couldn't have asked for better health care, compassion, and everything was phenomenal. Thank you.

Always a good experience. Yusuf Abdi is a very caring professional.

As always, the staff was exceptional. Yusuf Abdi always does a thorough examination and explains everything. Very professional and informative. Top marks all around. Thank you.

The office is fantastic. From the front desk to the medical assistants RNs the provider and the checkout front desk were fantastic.

Having the combined medical staff support has been instrumental in my mental and physical healing.

I have been seeing Yusuf for many years now. His MA has been very helpful and responds to my questions in my FMH chart and Yusuf has always greeted me in a friendly professional manner. My history is reviewed thoroughly and I receive answers to questions when asked. Yusuf will look up medical information and review it with me as needed. Also, the front desk staff have always been welcoming and assist with appointment scheduling in a friendly way.

Yusuf Abdi P.A., has been taking care of me far as long as he's been there. I trust and believe in him 100 percent. Always hits it right. Great doctor...

Yusuf is a very kind and patient doctor. He doesn't rush off before answering my questions or concerns. Highly recommend him. The office staff was also kind and helpful.

Yusuf Abdi is very thorough. Making sure he follows up.

Great initial visit and I feel very comfortable with the team. They are supportive and reassuring.

I very much appreciate the amount of time PA Yusuf Abdi spent with me. Your staff is always so helpful and go the extra mile.

Yusuf is the best and has all the information you need .

Even though my PCP left the practice I am grateful that others are stepping in to take over my care to see that I can stay my healthiest

The best health care I've ever had in my life.

Extra thanks to the registration staff for going out of the way in helping with my appointment , great job team

I had a wonderful experience Dr. Yusuf was attentive, open to listening and very knowledgeable and responsive

Yusuf is great. I think forget my prescription for pain killers.

My provider is very knowledgeable and detailed in his explaining of my care.

I've never felt like I've been in better hands at any other medical office in my life. The front staff are so kind and understanding. I can get seen when I need to. I trust and LOVE Dr. Abdi. He is patient and he listens. I feel better than I've felt in over a decade thanks to the team here.

Oakland family is always amazing. Friendly and caring. Yusuf is understanding and always gives me the time and care I deserve. He is a great provider.

Yusuf is great to deal with, without him I feel my RA would of not been diagnosed. I glad he is my PA.

The personal attention to explaining and discussing issues and options was educational and comforting.

The Oakland Family Medicine team was there for me when I struggled with some health issues and they were more than eager to help me feel comfortable and discuss all of my options and I appreciate their care and I would recommend them to anyone.

Dr. Abdi is so caring and knowledgeable about my history. He is a wonderful health professional!

Yusuf seemed to be genuinely concerned about my care and any future follow-up.

I thought the experience was very pleasant. It was easy. It was comfortable, and it was straight to the point and very quick, and I felt like I got to say exactly what I was looking to say.

I can't express how great Yusuf was. The most thorough examination I have ever had. He is so thorough and explains things in an excellent, understandable manner. He is excellent and a "keeper" for MaineGeneral.

Great.

Getting checked in is quick Care is excellent

The new facility is much nicer, overall a pleasant experience, although the waiting room smelled strongly of an artificial scent similar to cheap cologne - possibly from a diffuser or cleaning products. The medical assistant did not introduce themselves and seemed rushed and humorless, though pleasant enough. It would be nice to have my pronouns confirmed during the intake and on printed materials like the appointment summary. Dr. Abdi is one of the most genuinely caring, kind, and patient people I have ever met. Some parts of the exam seemed overly perfunctory, but that is perhaps due in part to him knowing intuitively where to place greater emphasis.
