Patient Reviews
Dec 07, 2016
I am a retired, university-trained, privately practicing physician who was on the staff of two major hospitals. I know excellence and watched many fine and and some famous docs do their thing (as well as quite a few stinkers). I view physicians who treat me with an educated, critical eye. I needed not emergent but urgent major chest surgery. My hunt took me to Dr. Lazar. He is an excellent doc and superb physician without the all-too-prevalent attitude. Heartily recommended!
