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 Lester is genius, I was having some weird symptoms for two years, went to 7 different doctor and after 15000$ bill someone recommended dr Lester, he just listened to my story and said I have something on my mind, sent me downstairs for blood work and in two days knew Exactly what’s wrong with me, God Bless him and his family!!!! I already recommended him for at list 20 people

Im giving them one star simply because of this: My daughter has been suffering from lack of sleep because and my wife and I have no idea why. We have been to the pediatrician and the pediatrician couldn't figure it out. So we called this place and confirmed they take anthem blue Cross Blue shield. Well, what do you know, we show up, and they took our card, and then denied us service because we took obamacare. Worst of all, they whispered it like we were less of a person. Watch out.

Dr. Lester was awesome at not only explaining to me what was going on with me (I had an adult onset allergy, an allergy to something I had never been allergic to in my first 48 years of life) but also took his time walk me through how to properly use an epi-pen if needed and the proper steps to take after it was injected. He was professional, caring and HE LISTENED!
