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.

Recent stent placement
I have had swelling in my lower extremities and ankles now for 13 plus years! Seven years ago,I had several test.I was told it was my occupation! I went to see Dr.LeSar.He knew exactly what the problem was , ran the necessary test, then few weeks later he did my procedure! I can not say enough great things about Dr.LeSar and his staff! You are not just a number you are like family there! Not only are they friendly they are very knowledgeable! A five star rating is not enough! I will be recommending them over and over!

Dr. LeSar and his associates have treated my daddy and mother for years and there is none better in the Chattanooga area! The staff is so customer oriented and the level of care from this group of professionals is outstanding. In a time where customer service does not seem to be a priority, this group of people are greatly appreciated!!! God Bless you all!!

Amazing in retrieval of a defective medical device. Done with no further injury than the medical device manufacturers! We are quite lucky to have doctors that know how to clean up BIG PHARMA'S greedy and reckless mistakes.
