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.

Don’t do it - find another doctor
Dr. Lakho is a good doctor. His staff is beyond terrible. They never send referrals, they never send in new prescriptions and they never okay your refills. I am a very easy patient. I’ve been going there for years. I don’t know what is happening but staff turnover is constant. These new people do not know anything about healthcare. I had a CT that showed a very serious concern. Dr. Lakho said I needed an immediate referral to a specialist. A week later and his staff never sent it. Even after calling twice. They didn’t refill my meds either after saying they would. I wouldn’t even have this serious concern had they sent my referral over a year ago when I first noticed symptoms. They will end up killing someone if they haven’t already. Now they are using a nurse that is in a video screen in the office and she has no clue what is going on. She’s in another country.

Very caring doctor
Doc was very attentive and thorough. My wife and I were very comfortable with our visit and look forward to continuing our many year association with him. He is very knowledgeable and knows exactly which medicines to prescribe.
