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.

No way.
Right before I was anesthetized for an upper endoscopy, he told me I “could stand to lose a little weight.” I had just lost 25 pounds and felt good about myself. Why would he decide to mention a weight judgment just before my procedure? I felt horrible after I woke up. Fortunately, no issue was discovered in my endoscopy. I will never go back to him.

This was my first appointment with Dr Lacey and he spent so much time to explain everything to me. He answered all my questions. I feel so good after seeing him that he will definitely do everything he can to help me. I am so glad I chose to see him. I would highly recommend him.

Dr Lacey is a fantastic doctor. He has provided care for my elderly mother for many years. Unlike many practices where they process you as quickly as possible, Dr Lacey always takes time to fully understand the patient's current condition and he never rushes the appointment. Sometimes the appointments may be running a bit behind schedule, but it is because he cares about the patient rather than the clock. He is kind, thorough, and provides excellent medical care. You will not find a better Gastro specialist than Dr Lacey.
