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.

Remarkable visit with Dr. Lindsay
I went to Dr Lindsay because I have lower back and hip pain. He thoroughly interviewed me, reviewed some MRI images I had on file and then examined me. I had expected a very worrisome diagnosis but Dr. Lindsay patiently and scientifically explained his conclusion that I did not have hip problems or severe lower spine problems, but rather a weakness in the gluteus medius supporting muscles and that physical therapy should greatly help my symptoms. I now understood the cause of my discomfort and eagerly scheduled physical therapy. Thank you Dr. Lindsay

Very thorough with excellent rapport
Dr Lindsay took considerable time explaining my condition and recommended treatments. Not at all condescending — which is unusual for me with doctors as I am an overweight woman in my late 50s. Much appreciated.

Dr. Leroy R. Lindsay
As a new patient, I consulted Dr. Lindsay about continuing rehabilitation for an ongoing condition. He spent a great deal of time exploring all aspects of my situation before we decided to start with a more conservative and holistic approach. His knowledge of and curiosity about everything feeding into my condition was more than impressive. He will certainly have my highest recommendation.

Cyst Removal
I am extremely thankful for Dr. Lindsay's care. I recently had an appointment regarding pain in my knee. Not knowing what it was, he did a thorough assessment and had me walk to see what the issues were. After his evaluation and having done an ultrasound, he noticed I had a cyst behind my knee. I was nervous at first, but I knew I was in good hands. Dr. Lindsay drained the cyst and within minutes, my knee felt so much better. Fast forward and three days later, I am not in agony anymore; however, I am treading lightly. It's the second time I see Dr. Lindsay and he always goes over and beyond. Thank you!!
