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.

Dr. Seto made me feel my life was worth saving. She and her staff were exceptional and made me feel at ease. The entire staff at Ascension was freekin super!

You will never find a better surgeon as Dr. Lynn Seto. She was very informative on what we were to expect before and after surgery. My husband had excellent care under this surgeon and I would give her "five star" recommendation. She treated my husband with professionalism and care. Dr. Seto is one of the most patient, nicest surgeons in our area. We were completely satisfied with the outcome.

Dr Seto is an excellent and compassionate surgeon. She explained everything in layman’s terms where we could understand the procedure. I felt my husband was in the most capable hands with a quadruple bypass with the aorta balloon pump.

I was recently in need of an emergency procedure, and Dr. Seto not only explained quickly and calmly the plan of treatment, but also with much compassion. My husband and I both felt we were in the best possible care. After surgery, she not only spent time encouraging me to recover, but explained in detail about the surgery and my plan of care going forward! I felt very comfortable with her, and will always feel that she saved me life! She is an amazing Surgeon for sure, but what a woman!
