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.

My visit was to determine the best outcome for me given osteomyelitis in my great toe. This was an extremely important visit because amputation was on the table. Dr. Lehman explained all of my options and which one he thought would serve me best given other health conditions that I have. I was very confident in the decision that the toe needed to be amputated and I have complete confidence in Dr. Lehman as a surgeon. Very supportive and encouraging.

In 2015 Dr. Lehman successfully corrected an ankle problem that had become very painful due to a previous surgery. I couldn't be happier with the result of the surgery. My ankle is straight and I have no pain. I have and would recommend Dr. Lehman to anyone.

Friendly heads up... Dr lehman performed surgery on my ankle back in 2015, claiming he could easily fix my subluxing peroneal tendon which was causing pain when I walked. Unfortunately, since then I’ve experienced even MORE popping with every single movement in my ankle & foot, it’s so loud you can hear it across a room, & itsmuch more bothersome now than before I underwent surgery. I now experience sporatic sharp/shooting pains that run down my ankle and into my foot as well at least 2x per day

I had a total ankle replacement done by Dr. Lehman. I had been in constant pain for 35 years. It is so nice to be to walk without pain. He is wonderful. Love his staff. I would highly recommend him.

My issues with my accessory navicular started back in 2010 when I slipped on sidewalk ice and hit my ankle. A boot was prescribed for a few months and it helped until a few years later when I gained weight and it started bothering me again, so Dr. Lehman suggested I have the extra bone taken out. I had the surgery and thank goodness I did. It has felt 100% better ever since I had the surgery. Absolutely no issues! I thank Dr. Lehman and his staff!

Thank you for sharing your experience.

Dr Lehman has the best bedside manner. He listens to the patient and then gives his recommendations. He calmed my fears about the surgery. He is very honest. Dr Lehman repaired a torn ligament in my right ankle. The constant pain I was in before the surgery is now gone, and I am in the last stages of recovery. I am getting married in August and plan to dance at my wedding.

Dr. Lehman was a fantastic orthopedic surgeon and I am very grateful he was my surgeon for my trimalleolar fracture. His staff was wonderful at working me in last minute and helping me with my insurance company. He is knowledgeable and professional and answered all of my questions that I had. His first priority is getting his patients back to pre-injury quality of life. I would highly recommend him and would suggest Dr. Lehman to all my family and friends.

Nice guy but I had bunion surgery and haven't walked right since. Feet always hurt now, didn't even hurt this bad before surgery. If it ain't broke really bad, don't fix it.
