So helpful in explaining all my options
She is fantastic!!! Knowledgeable and caring. Has my best interests in mind.
Dr. Lucas was amazing. Makes you feel really comfortable and explains the process really well. Made it real easy for a guy who hates needles which by the way I never felt.
Excellent Dr
Jessica is a breath of fresh air.. So happy to have her overseeing my knee progress.. The medical field needs more caring, sincere and knowledgeable health care professionals like Jessica.. I’m very happy to know her, and to have her in my corner…
Always wonderful services received.
Great caring Doctor!! She truly listens!
Dr Lucas is excellent. I was a bit apprehensive at first, since when my previous orthopedic doctor had retired, I was then considered to be a “new patient” at the clinic. I’m pleased with Dr. Lucas’ knowledge, and attention to my needs. Her explanations of procedures and MRI was thorough and understandable. I highly recommend her.
Explains everything very well, doesn’t rush
Dr. Lucas is personable, knowledgeable, incredibly easy to talk to, and above all - she *listens* to your concerns and isn't afraid to answer the hard questions or explain things in detail. She's an absolute gem of a person and the world could use a lot more like her. Always a pleasure, thank you!
