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 donโ€™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.

This guy is awful, he doesn't fully look into your symptoms. Once he heard part of what I had to say he made his decision and had is mind set on that diagnosis ever since. He did a scope test on me, which He did incorrectly and caused massive internal bleeding which almost killed me. And then prescribed me a medication at 3 times the recommended dosage. If you want a doctor to take their time and make the correct diagnosis select someone else.

Dr. Lora is very thorough. If you can't get answers from other local doctors, go here. After terrible results elsewhere and no answers as to what was causing my problems, Dr. Lora diagnosed me with mild ulcerative colitis. Treatment has been a miracle.

I've had 3 intestinal surgies, between 2007 & 2011 (out of state). I went today for an endoscopy and before he even went over my extensive surgies; he brought up something that no other doctor has even looked for. I'm definitely going to try to get an appointment with him to discuss further. However, he's made more sense in 5 minutes than the others have in years.

Have been with Dr. Lora for many years and through many procedures multiple times such as endoscopy and colonoscopy. My wife and our son have also been treated by him multiple times. He is one of the best doctors I have ever used. Knowledgeable, patient, takes the time to explain. A+ rating from me.
