Once again the Doctor listened and accurately answered questions. Was not overly anxious to perform an unnecessary procedure and he assured me he would be there should I need help at another time.
Thank you dr lake

Now, I just wanted to say Dr. Lake is awesome. His staff is awesome as well. And he did everything great. Absolute wonderful place and experience. And the only thing I would say you need to do is get a bigger waiting room because I'm sure you got a lot of patients. Have a good day and get home safe.

Dr. Lake has been my surgeon since my cancer diagnosis in 2016. His medical care is as good as it could possibly be!!! I highly recommend him and staff as they have helped me get through the difficulties that I have.

The office, the professional & office staff were great. Very professional & efficient. I felt like I was in good hands. However, the carpet in the hallways (outside the sweet of offices) is filthy. It should have been replaced years ago. Not a great introduction to the great practice. Embarrassing really.
