Doctor Lyons always seems like he is reading from a script which isn't very helpful when diagnosing issues. The wait was over an hour and a week later I haven't got my lab results. I even left them a voicemail but haven't heard back from them yet.

Dr. Lyons is a great doctor. He has been my family doctor for several years since I have relocated to Oakland, TN. The staff is great and friendly as well!! He always asks what are my symptoms, how have I been feeling, do I have any questions about his diagnosis about my illness or any questions about the medicine he prescribed for me.
Verified patient
Came in as a new patient and had some post part in depression anxiety and thought my body may be too unbalanced with hormones or possibility of other things since this has never hit me so hard.... went in he never shook my hand , when he Checked my ears and nose he didn’t wear gloves. I wasn’t going to write a review since I have little things that are positive to say.... but regardless I thought I’d get my blood work and he nurse did a great job doing that and explaining what we were checking for....but here we are 2 weeks later and I have no word on results... I’ve called and no answer. I had to leave a message for the nurse today maybe she’ll have an answer for me..... literally the worst DR I’ve ever seen.... very old school.... waste of time!
