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.

Sandy the receptionist was very helpful needed to switch doctors on insurance card she helped me right then and there. Ashly his nurse very nice and pleasant. Dr Lanka was just great I immediately had confidence in him and he has a great personality. Seemed very knowledgeable kind felt really good afterward. I’m very happy with him.

About 10 days ago my wife & I saw Dr Lanka at the same time. Most Doc's discourage the combo appointment. We each got quality, timely treatment with scripts, referrals & follow-ups. We've seen him for years & Dr Lanka gives us zero reasons to go elsewhere.

He's been my doctor for over 15 years. He's very informative, compassionate and listens to you. Takes time for one on one with each patient and his staff treats everyone so special with such professionalism. They say all the good ones that care are gone but the Lord blessed me with Dr. Lanka.
