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.

Great doctor, office policy is horrible..
Long, long wait time...Getting a refill takes days, and they only give you 3 refills for your routine medications! I really like the doctor but the office is incompetent & greedy...

Thank You Dr Mattei
Dr Mattei is a wonderful doctor. He has taken care of me for several years now. When I had Covid he aggressively treated me and I was on my feet within a week. I live in Chapin and work in Lexington and he is worth the drive downtown to see him when I am ill.

Have been seen multiple times due to my health steadily declining for over a year now and, despite having to wait for over an hour to be seen each time and still not getting any kind of answers or relief, he rushes through the appt without taking time to listen, has no sense of urgency and has to be reminded which tests and procedures have been done so far and what previous course of treatment has been. Had labs drawn at my last appt and was told to expect a call the next day with the results however, it's now been over a week and have left several messages with his office staff about getting the results and let them know about worsening symptoms but, I still have yet to receive a call back. After months of not being able to function normally and feeling absolutely miserable, will be finding a new doctor.

Dr. Mattei really cares about the patient. I have been seeing him for more than 10 years now and one of the main reasons I have not relocated to another city is because I am not confident I would get the same health care Dr Mattei provides.

They never seem to make you a priority. for example I have ran out of needles for my medication and found a number they could call the pharmacy with and do a verbal prescription. The receptionist kept going on about a Prior Authorization, and no matter how I explained to the lady that I had already gotten approval from my insurance and only wanted to give her that number to see if that could speed up the over one week now that i could not take my medication.She hung up on me over and over again.
