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.

Dr. Lechin is the most professional physician I have ever been treated by. Spends ample time with you that sometimes makes the waiting time for other patients but well worth it. Nurses are professional as well. Wish he had time to be my family doctor

Takes all the time needed to research the issue and come up with a solution. Is very knowledgeable about Medications, even for diabetes. His PA is also very thorough and knowledgeable as well. He saved my life, no doubt about it. When he sees you, he cares and answers all your questions.

Dr. Lechin is a wonderful physician, he is caring, very involved in my care not only when I see him at the office but any time I need him for any issues (cardiac and non cardiac related). He is very knowledgeable and always tries to address all my issues any time I see him. He truly takes care of the whole individual.

Dr. Lechin has been our family doctor for around 8 years. He has treated my daughter since the age of 14 when she was diagnosed with severe cardiovascular condition, she is 22 now and in very good condition with his care. He has treated mostly everyone in my family and he is always willingly to help and is actively caring for us. He is an excellent doctor who is very knowledgeable in his field and is extremely dedicated. He is also very trustworthy and very involved in the care of his patients. He treats 5 people in my family and we are all so pleased with his care and how much he has done for our family. We really recommend him and his staff.

I was quite disappointed in Dr. Lechin. Invariably, I had to wait an hour or more after meeting with his nurse. He did not explain things in very much detail. For example, I was told that I needed a stress test after noticing something "irregular" in my echo-cardiogram. I was then given an additional prescription without any explanation of why. I put up with this for many years before seeking another cardiologist in town, which I am much happier with.
