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.

Dr. Lewis is the only doctor who has shown such care and concern for my health. He speaks honestly about my medical condition and in a way that I can understand the prognosis. He is my primary care physician.

This review is more about one of Dr. Lewis, Jr's NP, Ms. Barbara Laughlin. This nurse is at the top of her profession and has nursed, guided, and at times lectured me back to having very good health issues, specifically dealing with type II diabetes. She has been my main source of health care since she came to work with Dr. Lewis, Jr., and I could not be happier with her care, compassion, attention, and the ease of contacting her when needed. She promptly replies and truly cares for my well-being. Thank you Dr. Lewis for allowing me to continue to use Ms. Barbara.
