Everyone in the building was very helpful. I really liked Dr. Lemmer, he listened and asked very good questions. He answered my questions very throughly. I am awaiting my results and feel confident that he is the doctor for me. I always like to feel comfortable with a doctor and know that no matter how strange my questions may be that he is listening, I found this to be true with Dr. Lemmer. I also liked the prayer he had hanging on his wall. That speaks volumes about a person.

Doctor was rough during my physical exam, failed to address my concerns, and had very poor bedside manner. Doctor could not find my blood work results or Xrays, but felt confident in his assessment felt based solely on his physical exam. All of this after keeping me waiting for an hour.

Multiple doctors have provided a different diagnosis rather that the one he offered; he dismissed my concerns as invalid and stated that I should attempt life style changes to deal with significant pain. Very dissappointed in his lack of professionalism as well as his sloppy diagnosis. Why order tests and Xrays if he wasn't going to use them in his assessment and diagnosis?

They made no attempt to follow up with me after my appointment. It isn't a big deal, but it does say something about the overall atmosphere of the office. They seemed stuck in the past. I was nervous about being exposed to archaic treatment methods. I was in a lot of pain during my appointment. They were really rough with my joints. I would never visit them again. I was very disappointed. There definitely appears to be a trend of overbooking clients here. The wait has gotten longer and longer from when I first started seeing them.
