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. Lam is incredible. She was so patient and explained all the options. I came from MGH because the sarcoma doctor over there was so short with me. Dr. Lam spends all the time with you and knows answers to all my questions. I love you Dr. Lam.

Dr. Lam is simply AMAZING! My father was treated by Dr. Lam and she was everything you could hope for in a doctor. She is so intelligent and compassionate. My father adored her and is doing well all because Dr. Lam knows exactly what she is doing. We traveled from Kentucky to get treated at Dana Farber and we are so glad we did. THANK YOU DR. LAM!!!!

Dr. Lam treated my husband and I would highly recommend her. She is kind, intelligent and compassionate. I wish cancer upon no one but I would not hesitate to send a family member or close friend to her. Her staff was also fantastic.
