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.

Doesn’t listen & not ethical
She doesn’t listen and makes decisions not in your best interest. She shared my personal information with other people and put a mark on my record that followed me. Not an ethical physician. Steer clear

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Lyon?
She's 'okay'
Dr Lyon is always late, latest appt was 45 minutes late, prior was an hour. In my most recent appointment she seemed more concerned about my parenting than my sons symptoms. Stating I was convincing my son of his symptoms. Telling me I was too 'restrictive' after disagreeing with her suggestion because my son didn't like a sport she suggested. She even scoffed at me when I told her why my son didn't like it. He's seven. He's tried almost every sport there is and having the summer off was a huge inconvenience to her. Furthermore she stated there was no restrictions on his activity right after the Orthopedic doctor said there were restrictions due to hypermobility in his joints, like no contact sports. Make sure you read her notes, she doesn't activily listen there is always misinformation in my notes. Be prepared to advocate for yourself. I have had testing prove I have one condition over another, she said it's probably a mild but won't accurately reflect diagnosis.
