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.

Be very careful
Referred for possible hysterectomy. Not needed. Was scheduled to have a colposcopy and was not able to do procedure in her office. Was then told I needed a DNC because of possible diagnostic of any type of cancer. Went into hospital, put to sleep and half way home my husband informs me that she could not perform the DNC. Dr. Lambert was not there to speak with me anytime after the surgery. None of the nurses or staff told me the procedure could not be performed after I was brought back to my room after this so called surgery. I was the one calling to speak with Dr. Lambert all day after the surgery and finally got a call from her the next day only to tell me that she was not overly concerned and that it would be something we needed to monitor. So why was I put to sleep for unnecessary surgery?? Up charging at its finest! You decide if you want to waste your money and risk your health.

Intelligent, Personable, and Trustworthy
I transferred to Dr. Lambert after my GYN retired. I adored the old one but Dr. Lambert has been wonderful. She is very likeable, puts one at ease on exam, explains your condition, and includes you in your medical decision making. Being a physician is her second career (I believe she was an engineer first) so she is obviously very intelligent. I trust her completely. Her staff is always very kind and engaging. I believe some of these negative reviews should perhaps consider that medical care has changed, lengths of appointments are not what they were 25 years ago, and all physicians are overworked. My guess is that there is also another side to the story and the patient had responsibility in whatever they are upset about.

The best!
Dr. Lambert has shown me real compassion, helped me face fear of breast cancer, answered my questions clearly and took her time with me. Calling her office to schedule the yearly check up this week. Definitely recommend her to be your OB!

I was referred by my general doctor. Something came up and I had to reschedule my initial appointment and then had wait four months to be seen by her. The person that I spoke with was very short and rude about me cancelling which made me believe they deliberately scheduled that far out. It may not be the case but since they were rude to me as a potential new patient I didn't trust it. So I went elsewhere.

Never met a better OB/GYN. My birthing years are over, but I truly wish Dr. Lambert was around when I had my children. Best GYN I've ever been to. Don't believe the negative reviews here. I think some people are just unhappy people.

Dr. Liz Lambert ran me out of her practice, I guess complicated medical patients aren’t her cup of tea, except she won’t tell you, rather you’ll just have trouble scheduling or getting a return call from her or her partners.

I've been a patient of Dr. Lambert's for the past 9 years. I found some of the negative reviews on this site very odd. (One is from a man which she does not see men as patients!) I found it necessary to share my review. Dr. Lambert has been an excellent physician and has always shown appropriate concern and treatment over any problem I have had. I have never felt rushed by Dr. Lambert. She has always spent an appropriate amount of time with me. I truly have referred multiple friends to her.

always in a rush, if you have a good insurance, this doctor will be all over you, but if your an average person like me, this doctor will rush things, so she can rush herself in another patient's room, its like she's trying to rush things and see more patients fast, does not spend time, always in a rush to answer things, does not even explain clearly
