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.

My children have been patients of Dr. Lerner's since 1999. He is supportive, empathetic, child-friendly, knowledgeable and thorough. He always takes the time to explain his thought process and the plan of care, and he always gives parents or adolescents the final decision making power.

An outstanding doctor with wonderful support staff. He and his former colleague, Dr. Scott Bader, took great care of my severely disabled son, Peter Khuri, while coordinating with several specialists. He has my eternal gratitude and my highest possible recommendation.
