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.

Deeply concerned for my welfare.
Dr. Lyle, with Boulder Heart, is expert at instilling and distilling complex cardiac concepts. I had seen multiple doctors over many decades who spent an inordinate amount of time listening to my heart, giving wrong diagnoses, and offering nothing of substance. He was the one who finally accurately diagnosed my heart problem and offered solutions. Although it is difficult to get an appointment with him, he is worth the wait, and he is young so should be around for many more decades. He is the warmest and most compassionate doctor I have ever met.

I first met Dr. Lyle because my primary doctor heard a heart murmur. He was caring concerned and listened to me. He ordered many test and determined would need heart surgery. He sent me the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota, here they fixed my heart and I’m on the road to recovery. He called me before my surgery and wished me well. He is patient and when you have an appointment with you he is all there for you. He also has a great staff. If you are looking for a great cardiac doctor that takes the time to know you and is knowledgeable, Dr. Lyle is great.

Dr. Lyle listened carefully to my symptoms and worked diligently to determine what had caused them when I first visited him after landing in the ER. He is very compassionate and takes time to understand the patient as a whole person.

Dr. Brian Lyle is arrogant...he treats his support staff like crap and cares little about his patients. He only cares about money.
