Dr. Lazarus is terrific! When I first saw him six months ago (in person), I had had 10 UTI's in one year and it was exhausting and frustrating. Since my first visit with him in the fall, I have had NONE in six months.
Excellent listener and came up with a plan for me and sent a note after in the portal
Dr Lazarus is the best, kindest and most knowledgeable doctor ever. I have been in the medical world for 42 years, so I know top quality. I am so lucky he is my doctor.
Dr Lazarus is knowledgeable and sympathetic and addresses my needs
Dr. Lazarus is amazing! Very knowledgeable and respectful. Honestly, most doctors don't listen or prepare for a visit like he did. I worked in Healthcare, so I can tell when someone prepared ahead of time.
Dr. Lazarus was wonderful, explaining all the info I needed in detail, listened to me, answered all my questions and never feeling rushed and he was on time.
Dr. Lazarus has been a very helpful physician over the past several years and my problem is now cleared.
