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.

Dr. Seemed very interested in my Issues.

Dr. Lazarev was my primary for a little over a year. Not only was he consistently dismissive of my health issues, but there were two separate occasions where I left his office in tears from how I was treated. My visits never lasted more than five minutes, and my concerns were never properly addressed. Oftentimes when I would message him on MyChart he would tell me to go to urgent care. When I would get to urgent care, they would act confused and ask why my primary would send me there for issues that should have been addressed by him. When I would follow up with him again about those issues, he’d tell me to go to the ER, and they would respond with the same confusion as urgent care. He could see in my chart what they recommended, then would tell me he couldn’t help me until I made an appointment with him. I’d make the appointment, and he never, not once, followed through with their recommendations. This happened three separate times. It was a waste of my time and my money. I’ve had wonderful experiences with other doctors in this clinic, and I’m glad I finally made the decision to request a new primary.

Dr. Lazarev is a very knowledgable and experienced doctor. He is highly professional with an excellent bedside manner. He is very punctual (he rarely runs late). He is very thoughtful and attentive to my concerns. He looks for actual solutions to my health problems and provides an accurate treatment plan instead of just prescribing medications at my request. He explains my issues to me in a way that I can understand. He provides referrals to specialists if further tests/evaluations are needed. I have recommended him to a number of other people and I have gotten good feedback from them.

Friendly, expensive, and not thorough. Went in for my annual routine preventative physical. Not only was the appointment super quick (not thorough and lacked a complete exam), but I was charged for an additional office visit. My search for a good doctor continues...
