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.

Great Doctor..

Have had bladder problems for several years. Dr L’Esperance performed a cystoscopy & prescribed medication that has been such a huge help! I loved his friendly bedside manner & how he explained everything to me; it made the procedure & process feel less invasive & comforting. I would highly recommend him & Urologic Urologic Specialists!

I am a terrible patient. I challenge doctors and their staff. I have an outsized suspicion of the medical establishment. And I take it out one them. I avoid doctors, however, sometimes it can't be avoided. Such as with kidney stones. Several times I was intemperate with Dr. L'Esperance. But he never never retaliated. He was patient with me and somehow knew that I was either frightened or frustrated and didn't take it personally. I am grateful. Dr. L’Esperance exceeded my expectation. He is a strong communicator and caring doctor. I hope he will continue to have me as a patient.

My husband had prostrate surgery by Dr L’Esperance- it was perfect - Dr Jim is professional- upfront - an expert in his field - and an excellent surgeon. His bed side manner for the patient and family is fabulous. His staff is caring and professional as well. We would highly recommend him for all urological needs.
