June 14, 2017Wilfred B.Verified patient
My boyfriend sees Dr. Lutton for an ACL tear/repair and when I started having knee pain while running he recommended I make an appointment. I scheduled on ZocDoc for three days out and the office called that they had an opening for the same time slot open a day earlier. It was great getting an appointment so quickly.
Dr. Lutton was great. He did a bunch of tests and said it looks like ITBS. He recommended a foam rolling and taking my training a notch lower said if that doesn't help I can think about PT. I really appreciate that he didn't send me for unnecessary tests and scans.
May 9, 2017Yana K.Verified patient
The staff and doctor were extraordinarily helpful, attentive, knowledgeable, and engaging. They identified the cause of the ailments, addressed concerns, outlined a plan of action, and were thoughtful and forthright in explaining the way the issues would be treated. Great experience and a terrific office of professionals that I look forward to engaging with for further treatment and managing solutions to the injuries.

September 6, 2016Nancy L.Verified patient
I enjoyed my visit with Dr. Lutton. He was very informative and professional but at the same time he was very personable and gave me a script for Physical Therapy, something the other doctor I saw two weeks ago failed to do.
In addition, he shared the X-rays that were taken of my right knee
and explained exactly what condition my knee was in. Something the other physician failed to do.
