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.

Refuses patients with physical disabilities
Was called to set up an appointment and had mentioned that patient had one hand, the nurse passed the message along. The doctor then denied the patient before she could set up an appointment.

Dr Lingala is Fabulous!
You will need a referral and then you may have to wait to get in for the first time as Dr. Lingala has a ton of patients. I have met a few and they all LOVE him and are so happy with how he has stopped their pain. I have lower back pain from strenuous exercise, specifically TaeKwonDo. But I love this sport and I refuse to quit at 71 years of age. Dr. Lingala has made it possible for me to believe that I will be able to return to class. There are 3 procedures and I have now finished the first two. He is awesome.

Very compassionate
Dr. Lingala was the attending physician when I spent 4 days in hospital recently for a neurological concern. Dr. Lingala was very thorough and listened while I described to him what I had experienced leading to my hospitalization. Dr. Lingala was very clear in telling me and concerned relatives involved in my care what his concerns were and what options were available for me.
