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.

Very Competent
Dr.Lewis was very knowledgeable and took time talking with me. He explained everything in detail and reassured me that I'm fine. He listened to my concerns and did not rush me and that is priceless, I didn't feel like just another number. Dr.Lewis is honestly One of a kind and few and far between. His Staff were very professional and friendly. I would definitely recommend Dr.Lewis to anyone seeking a Very Knowledgeable and thorough ID Doctor.

When you need the absolute best...
Dr Lewis is the best doc in his specialty. Absolutely no question about that. That makes him busier than a one armed shingler though. If you need the best then see Dr. Lewis. This is a doctor you can trust. AAAA+++++ ethics and knowledge. Dave Neuhaus. JD. Yes. I usually sue doctors. I am one of those guys. This guy would do well in any major city. A polished diamond in Tulsa. Who would think?

I had back surgery in May then in June I started hurting worse and started running a fever. I had staph infection. They sent Dr Lewis to see me in the hospital. I cannot say enough about this physician . He is so smart and explained things and the process that had to be taken. He was truly a blessing from God. I totally trust him to the care he gives me. I would so recommend him to everyone.

Dr Lewis saved my life.
12 years ago, Dr Lewis walked in my hospital room after I was admitted. He was assigned to my case. I had lung surgery and, contracted an infection. Dr Lewis cared for me during my long stay. His care was impeccable and, he was very attentive. He always assured me, it was gonna be ok, as I was terrified. I'll never forget him and his compassionate care.

Dr Lewis initially cared for my son after he had been admitted for seizure. It ended up being a brain tumor but he remained on his case throughout. He was kind, caring, patient with traumatized parents! We were grateful for him!

Doctor Lewis has an impeccable reputation. He has saved many patients from certain death by his masterful ideology of modern medicine n treatment. His office saved my fathers life on more than one occasion and in 2012 he saved mine as well, from a gangrene bone infection. He knew exactly which antibiotics to prescribe to reverse the infection n through his articulate treatment I am alive today. Since 2012 I have had a number of issues with other orthopedic infections all treated n healed by Dr. Lewis. To this day, if I have a problem with an infection he is always contacted first!! If you are in need of an infectious disease doctor it would be foolish to look anywhere else!! Thank you Dr. Lewis n God Bless!!

This doctors office wasn’t wearing masks even though there is a citywide mandate. He was sexist, pompous & arrogant when I spoke with him. I had to file a grievance due to his negligence He misdiagnosed me and caused me to lose valuable time to get results on lab work as he neglected to follow through. No apology from him or anyone in his office. He is a self righteous doctor, distant, aloof, think he knows everything

Excellent, caring physician. He talks to you, not at you. His staff is fantastic. They genuinely care about the patients-this starts from the top down. I wish he could be cloned into other medical areas.

Dr Lewis is unmatched, he is a fantastic Dr who saved my husbands life and recognized the underlying problem after a mis-diagnosis from other Dr's. I have never seen a Dr who cares more about his patients and works all kind of crazy hours taking care of everyone. He is a go to Dr and Tulsa is lucky to have him. He is very knowledgable and an incredible man, thank you for all you have done for us Dr Lewis!

Dr. Lewis has been my doctor for many years, and of all the physicians and specialists I've ever seen in my lifetime, he is by far the best. His kind bedside manner, complete presence to me during appointments, active listening and wonderful education is amazing - as is his follow-up calls and notes. I can't say enough about him - I'm so lucky to have him as my doctor, and my health advocate.

This man is my hero. He is how every physician should strive to be... caring, tenacious, smart and personable. He actually listens to me and includes me in decisions regarding my care. He makes himself available, spends time with me when I have an office visit and responds to my inquiries when I call or text him. An all around great doctor.
