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.

Extremely Unreliable Care
Unable to get test results despite repeated requests. Prescribed medication not recorded on discharge papers nor communicated. Received reminder about an appointment cancelled months prior, in person at the office. Deflecting responsibility for poor responses. Blaming computer system for human error. I have no confidence in this office or the medical services they provide.

Strongly recommend Dr. Lerman!
I have had 3 colonoscopies performed by Dr Lerman. I regard him to be the best gastroenterologist in the business! He is very easy to talk to, and will answer all questions you may have. Test results are always returned in a very timely manner, and the explanations are very thorough. I have been his patient since 2002 and will continue to see him as long as he is in practice. I strongly recommend Dr Lerman to anyone who has the need to see a gastroenterologist.

Let me start by saying the reception is very unorganized. They have you fill out all this paperwork with update contact information and they still seem to try and contact you threw the old phone numbers. When you correct them they give you attitude. You feel rushed in your appointment, don't even have a chance to ask questions. Very disappointing
