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 Lazar is AWESOME!
Dr Lazar has taken care of me, my husband, and my elderly parents for years. He is always patient, thoughtful, meticulous, kind, and wise. Dr Lazar is a very good listener, takes his time to carefully consider your concerns, and always offers sage advice, especially concerning complex issues. Moreover, his office staff and nurses, especially Tiwana, are professional, courteous, and kind. Equally impressive is that the office is very punctual and well organized—no long waits! We all have great confidence in Dr Lazar’s care and genuine concern for our well-being.

My girlfriend told me about Dr.Lazar. He was so knowledgeable and prompt. I was only there for about 30 minutes at the most but i didnt Feel rushed. The diagnosis was correct and I’ll definitely be going back for my yearly check ups. The staff was also nice and welcoming.

My father, a patient of dr. Lazar never recommended the shingles vaccine and as a result has suffered extreme pain. in addition he gave up on treating my father and turned him to hospice care. I am happy to report that after switching primary care physician my father is much better off.

This doctor has been treating my mother for years. She is now 82. He has had her on a synthetic opioid, Tramadol for over 12 years. When I tried to talk to him about it, he was very rude to me and wouldn't listen to me. She ended up in the hospital for some infections, which he didn't diagnose, and went through withdrawals from this medication, including bad hallucinations. He just kept writing her prescriptions for Tramadol with only occasional blood work for other conditions
