Dr.Lawler was personable, professional, and caring as she spent time examining, arranging tests, diagnosing, and discussing future treatment. I highly recommend her as everything I look for when choosing and trusting a physician.
Excellent surgeon!
Really like the doctor! She listened to me explain my previous treatment and understood what I wanted to have done and explained surgery options.
She's great! Listens to you and takes what you say to heart. I know this because not many Drs will say "no one knows their body better that the patient"! She did after she listened to my thoughts. I'm a advocate for myself as one should be and she was more than okay with this, and made me feel that everything was going to be okay!
She was fantastic.
Excellent results, repairing my "trigger finger". Thanks Ericka!
Only hand doctor I have confidence in.
Very good experience. Very helpful explaining treatment. Very professional!
Dr Lawler is present and attentive in the room. She listens well and doesn’t interrupt when you are trying to find your words to explain what you are feeling
Dr Lawler told me from the beginning what the problem in my right hand and she told me how she could fix my issues and here 7 weeks later, my arm issues are fixed, she is an amazing Doctor and I would highly recommend her.
