Dr. Lazar is fantastic! Super knowledgeable and thorough - though also a very fast talker! He recommended a stepped approach and did not push more invasive treatments (unless other alternatives failed over time), which I appreciated. Would definitely return for future foot issues.

Dr. Lazar was personable and attentive to my needs, and had reviewed my history before coming in the room, so was able to jump right in. He is a fast talker, but not in a bad way.

Dr. Lazar is one of the best doctors I have ever seen. He is a true professional and put my mind at ease immediately. He did a wonderful job and I couldn't be happier that I saw him. I am a senior citizen with a progressive incurable disease and my first priority is to have a doctor I can trust. After my visit with Dr. Lazar I know I can trust him to do right by me.

I first used Dr. Lazars services approximately 5 years ago relating to a different foot problem. Since he took such good care of me then, I natural returned to him for help with my current problem.
He has an excellent bedside manner and I am very happy with his care and medical expertise.

I was quite impressed with Dr. Paul Lazar. He has a charming, welcoming personality and made me feel comfortable discussing issues I have. He performed a couple procedures with proficiency that relieved the pain I had been suffering from.
Ironically, upon arrival, I saw a friend was just finishing up his appointment with Dr. Lazar, who he told me he has been seeing the doctor for years and highly recommends him.
Dr. Lazar's staff was professional and friendly, his offices are modern and ultra clean, and he accepted my insurance.
I highly recommend Dr. Lazar!

Can you say that you had a lot of fun at the Doctor's office? Because I really did. The receptionist was really friendly, the office clean and nice and Dr. Lazar was great. He was friendly, funny, very intelligent. About 3 minutes in, he was rattling off the issues that I was having, which muscles were the cause and how we can fix it. All in all, a true gem.
