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.

Epidural
Dr. Lucas did my epidural for my labor and delivery and he was amazing! He put me and ease and even came back to check on me days later.

I had an appointment for a colonoscopy in August this year, but it was canceled it minutes after my arrival -- why? Because my transportation (by livery) was deemed "against the law" by Dr. Stefan Lucas's nurse. Why she lied about such a thing -- and why Dr. Lucas AND the colonoscopist, Surinder Devgun -- both supported her lies -- is beyond me, and I still don't know the real reason why my procedure was canceled. All I know is that I lost $198 in transportation costs, $75 for a covid test, and $200 in lost wages, and I still need a colonoscopy. Thank goodness there are anesthesiologists other t "Dr." Lucas (and other GI "doctors" besides "Dr. Devgun) in this area who provide quality medical care WITHOUT lying about what is (and isn't) "against the law." If you like whim, intimidation, and lies determining whether you get medical care, then this duo is for you. But if quality and reliability are your standards, run, don't walk, to another medical office!

We met DrS Lucas at UMMC in Batavia when he was the anesthesiologist for my daughter. He was amazing! He called me the evening before her procedure/test so I knew what to expect and we were very impressed with his care. My daughter was at ease and he was the perfect blend of caring and humorous! He got us through it and she did great! Highly recommended!

Phenomenal anesthesiologist! He was fantastic with not only us, but put our daughter at ease right away. He called the night before to explain the procedure and answer all my questions. He was very kind and supportive. We would not hesitate to recommend him to friends and family.
