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.

All-round positive experiences
Dr. Lewis is an attentive listener who takes the time to explain procedures and options fully, letting you make your own decisions. He is kind, compassionate, and patient throughout all your questions. He has plenty of experience and is current with knowledge of current procedures. He doesn’t talk down to you and can break things down as much as you need to understand while respecting your intelligence. He is not gender-biased, and is gentle with your pained joints, while taking your preferences and needs into thoughtful consideration. I very much appreciate his demeanor and wish more practitioners were as considerate in treating patients like actual persons. I have confidence in his abilities as I approach surgeries and feel supported in being presented alternatives until that time comes.

Dr Lewis is a very knowledgeable and caring doctor. He takes the time to explain your procedure and listen to your concerns. His PA is also very knowledgeable and caring. My biggest complaint is the surgery scheduler. It does not appear that she has any system for keeping track of patients and tells you that you can't schedule more than a month in advance and when you call to schedule a month out you can't get a date until 4 months out! Not sure how that system is working for anyone. Overall experience was great with everyone else.

Dr. Lewis is the best foot and ankle orthopedic surgeon in Ky, maybe anywhere! He is brilliant! In addition to being incredibly smart, professional, and talented he is very kind. He really listens and takes time with you. He explains everything. I had a severe foot injury that required two operations. He took me excellent care of me. I will only ever see him if I have foot injuries. I completely trust him and his abilities. You can rest assured you are in the best hands possible! I would also like to say his NP Laurie is amazing! She is super bright and really knows her stuff. It is a great team!

Multiple surgical successes
Always personable, professional & medically instructive for the best post-operative outcome. Due to osteoarthritis, had a surgical Chilectomy(2022) and Arthrodesis(2024) on right large toe joint under his care with positive results and improved lifestyle. Able to walk normally again without pain. Will always be grateful for this superb orthopedic surgeon and recommend he and his associate NP to all. Don't look beyond the Louisville Orthopedic Clinic for surgical care & solutions.
