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.

Very professional and knowledgeable
On my first visit, he felt very confident what my issue was without having to go through a whole lot of testing. And within a few weeks, I had my surgery. He made me feel at ease and joked a little bit, which was important to me. I highly recommend him.

Carpel Tunnel release is ok but never the Ulnar ne
I had a mixed experience and terminated further surgeries. He totally messed up my Left hand doing an ulnar nerve release. I terminated any further surgeries needed for hand. I needed Carpel Tunnel release and Ulnar Nerve release for both hands. I chose the left hand first and would wait till that fully healed before doing the right hand. I understood the procedure for the orthoscopic carpel tunnel surgery. I would say this was a success. The ulnar release is another story. He explained the release would move the nerve at the elbow to a safer location. However he never explained that the ulnar release would also include cutting my left hand wide open to move that portion of the ulnar nerve. This is where it went wrong. To this day (3 months later) I have consistent pain in the wrist, along the surgical line of my palm and into the pinky. My pinky locks up and snaps or pops when I can get it to release. This can occur in my sleep and becomes quite painful. I chose not to contin

A Real Keeper!!
Dr. Lekic was exactly what you expect a doctor to be! He told me what he thought the problem to be, given what he saw on the X-ray as well as what he surmised from moving my arm into different positions to assess pain level. We mutually agreed on a plan going forward after he answered my questions on long term effects of cortisone injections. The injection was painless and I feel comfortable that we have a plan and he will be there for me as I recover. Can’t say enough about his professionalism. Fantastic doctor.

Best practice EVER..
I came in for a follow up with a tendon tear on my wrist, when they called me back they asked me about my knee? I had an injection for my knee arthritis about 3 months ago. I told the Dr I was glad too see him but was bummed because my knee was good, but my wrist needed attention. Even though my appointment for my wrist wasn't until the 22nd, he asked the wrist doctor if he could fit me in? Between the knee follow up, transfer to the wrist doctor, injection, paperwork. In and out in 25 minutes.. Saved me time and a trip at the end of the month. Fantastic customer service..
