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.

Awful experience. Bedside manner is non existent as far as he loses his temper when his floundering questions are not understood or answered to his way of thinking. Rides roughshod over any concerns you may have. Hope to never have to deal with this individual ever again

1996, Dr. Satish Lal fused three vertebrae in my lumbar, L4, L5, S1 Presently my quality for life is great! Despite few limitations I now experience more good days than bad days. If you are thinned skinned see another Doctor because Dr. Lal is tough as nails and tolerates no nonsense. He listens well and is honest. Surgery is his last resort! Thanks again Dr. Lal & God bless your practice!

Doctor doesn't have any patients, gets very frustrated. I complained to insurance company. They didn't give me a return appointment can't call office voice mail is always full. The insurance informed him that I didn't want to come back and he sent me back to work, knowing I wasn't ready. Now I'm back to square one, pain as increased. No documentation to give to my employer saying that I was released to return to work. Bad doctor and receptionist. Don't waste your time??????

I waited over a week to get into this doctor. I got a call a hour and a half before my doctors appt today and the doctor cancelled my appointment. I have a dislocated thumb and needed to be seen. Now another 2 week wait because the doc wanted to have a long weekend.

My experience with this Doctor is the worst I have ever experienced. He has no bedside manners. I went there for an opinion on back surgery and because I wasn't saying the exact words he wanted to hear he got frustrated. When he went to check how far I could bend forward and side to side he put his thumbs in the area of my back which hurt and was sore from driving 50 mins. from my home to see him. Before I could tell him why I hurt he got angry, said that surgery wont help me among other words.
