In patients' words

"Extremely poor experience. Dr. Lesser continually downplayed my symptoms and the entire reason for the visit. He wasted my time and actively made it more difficult for my issues to be treated by other physicians."

Healthgrades (Dr. Paul Lesser review)

"This Dr. listens. He speaks intelligently to patients and takes time to answer questions! Far better than the experiences w/ Law. Mem GI drs."

Healthgrades (Dr. John Chobanian review)

"I've been having mixed feelings about them overall. The PCPs there seem to be very good, but it's hard to work with the system."
