Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Highly recommend
Dr Lucas is always very personable and doesn’t rush you through. He listens to your concerns and gives you options to move forward with your treatment. Highly recommend him as your surgeon.

Great treatment but long wait.
I had a great experience with the staff and the care given. But I did have to wait over an hour to actually see the doctor. May have been an off day, but after a 3 hour drive to be there it seemed like a very long day.

Dr. Lucas and his staff were very professional and caring and I was completely at ease. I felt like they just really wanted to find the best treatment for me so I could do the things I enjoy and the things I need to do without all the pain. I am doing much better and I appreciate their kindness and care.

Simply the Best
Visited Dr. Lucas almost 10 years ago and I really liked the quality of care that he had provided at that time. I recently requested a referral back to Dr. Lucas. Upon this new visit, Dr. Lucas and his entire staff displayed a high level of professionalism and made me feel comfortable throughout my visit, as before. I highly recommend Dr. Lucas and his team for their knowledge and expertise.

Rotator Cuff Surgery
Dr Lucas is amazing at what he does. At the three month mark of having surgery and physical therapy, my shoulder feels good. Not 100% but that is only going to take time and continued development. I would recommend him to anyone.

Very thorough with the explanation of my MRI. Both he and his PA spoke in language I could understand rather than in “medical speech”, therefore i understood what i was seeing and what needed to be done.
