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 Happy with Doctor

Dr Lago made me feel comfortable right from the beginning. He was warm and friendly and asked me to explain what was going on He then asked to show him where the pain was. He then asked me a number of questions. He was a very good listener. Finally he clearly explained to me his thinking and came up with a plan of action and told what I should do and what to be aware of Could not have asked for more

Dr. Lago is a caring dedicated physician.
Dr. Lago is a caring, highly effective physician. He is very analytical in diagnosing health issues as well as listening to patients concerns. Wayne County citizens are very fortunate to have accessibility to a caregiver of his caliber. He always treats me with respect and shows genuine concern for my wellbeing.

I have been seeing Dr. Lago since I was a child. I have seen so many other PCPs as I've moved from Canton to Columbus but none felt like the best fit. I've followed him to three or four different locations over the years and it's still worth the hour and a half drive from where I live now.

Dr. Lago is very inconsiderate and has little to no knowledge of complications, contraindications, or diseases. He is at most a smooth talker who will refer you to all of the wrong specialists and then tell you that you are simply fat and depressed. Do not go to Dr. Lago, unless you ONLY have superficial problems, such as allergies. He is, also, very consistent about comparing his thyroid problems/etc to his patient's problems, in my experience. NOT A QUALITY that you want in a doctor.
