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.

Excellent Doctor
Dr. Lucas is a great Doctor. He listens and explains thoroughly. I like that the facility has most all testing equipment in house.

I'm a patient for about 8 years. He listens to my concerns and is very thorough in resolving those concerns. I'm self pay, Dr. Lucas has effectively resolved my health issues while maintaining a balanced approach between costs. He cares, I become very busy with work/life and I often leave heathy decisions as least priority. Dr. Lucas has coached me back to a balance of health/work/life.

I have seen him once and tried taking one of his tests which I could not complete due to the stress the technician caused me. Then I cancelled the other test and the follow up apt. with this doctor. I am trying not to be killed by these people who do not have the experience to understand my situation. Going by the other reviews to date, this doctor has very good reviews by some and very poor reviews by others. So he is inconsistent in his success rate. I think if he likes you, you get good to excellent service. If he dislikes you for whatever reason...you get insulted and emotionally beaten up. His agenda is to make money by prescribing tests you may not need so he can get paid by medical companies. Also he will push drugs on you any way he can without respect for your boundaries. I am dying of a brain disease. I want to live a life of my own choosing for the rest of the time I have in this life. He does not seem to have the ability to understand. I ain't got time for this.
