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.

I woke up during surgery. Be The pain was excruciating and the anesthesiologist noticed me moving my head and put me back under. The found it amusing when I brought this up during my follow up appt. There wasn't anything funny about the pain. I don't trust this doctor and would not recommend him. Didn't he take an oath to "do no harm"? This experience left me with fear of surgery. The surgery itself was not a success & I need to have it redone. I will use a better surgeon this time.

Underwent Basal Arthritis Thumb Surgery. I have never woken up from an operation in so much pain! He laughed because I asked him why he didn't use a LOCAL anesthetic!!! This is simply uncalled for and my pain remains. I have an ugly scar on top of everything else. Do not use this surgeon!

I found him to be very rude, doesn’t listen to what is really wrong. He kinda goes with his thinks instead of the facts. If you don’t need surgery he isn’t interested in what you have to say. I found him to be arrogant, rude and not very personable at All.. I do not recommend him!!! The staff at lakeside also not so friendly

I would NEVER recommend that anyone see him. He is inconsiderate, impatient, rude, late, arrogant, and condescending. He does not want to answer patients’ questions, and he rushes his patients in and out because he is always behind schedule.
