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.

Bad Experience
I had to have 2 foot surgeries redone by an orthopedic surgeon that Dr. Lake did incorrectly. He left a sharp point on a bone graft that severed a tendon.

Dr. Lake put a stabilizing boot on me in office which ended up not being necessary and I was billed $600 for a prosthetic. The boot can be purchased from a licensed dealer for $100. I understand that it was a precautionary measure but I feel as though I was taken advantage of. Six weeks after diagnosis I was still in pain as bad if not worse. I called the office to verify my records were transferred to my general practitioners office and after a curt yes I was hung up on.
