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.

The doctor made me feel very much at ease because of his caring attitude.

Dr. Gerald Lawrie is FANTASTIC! And a great person to simply chat with. His full comprehensive preview of my cardiac situation was impressive, he had it all in-hand before we even talked. Dr. Lawrie's kind, patient manner was so reassuring. His explanations were of the highest caliber. His knowledge of the heart and surgical concerns is Top Level. This is the kind of surgeon I want working on me!

Dr. Lawrie is the best. When I my surgery in 2020, he was 2-3 surgeries a week. Surgery and recovery, while not easy, went without a hitch. The BEST!

Aorta Aneurism
On my first appointment, which I was really scared about an open heart surgery, I felt he was the surgeon I had been looking for. He explained everything how the process was going to be, how I was going to feel for the next days and weeks. I knew I was in the best hands! And I was totally right.

No words can describe how it felt to hear that my mitral valve is in need of repair. I am extremely nervous moving forward with this procedure, but his reassurances, and his reputation I have gained knowing I am in safe hands. I made up my mind to move forward with the surgery. Dr. Lawrie has a wonderful staff kind regard.

I can’t say enough about Dr. Lawrie. He saved my husbands life. He did a mitral valve repair. The night before surgery he found an aortic aneurysm. He repaired that. After 3 weeks he is walking a mile a day. Dr. Lawrie’s bedside manner is so warm and encouraging. I love you Dr. Lawrie.
