I’ve been a patient here for 35 years and was handed off to Dr. Lipnick when my original doc retired. I don’t need a friend, but I don’t need an attitude either. He seemed bothered, and annoyed. Checked all the boxes that I already knew, and then rushed out to labs and on my way. I’m all for speedy visits so I appreciate that, but a little decent goes a long way.

He seems very knowledgeable but I'm so confused by the practice and my first visit. I thought I was getting an exam but it was just writing down my medical history and then I was scheduled in 3 months for an exam. I really don't know what to expect at that visit now. Will I get an exam?

Saw him in on a Saturday with a sinus infection. He was supposed to call in a prescription. Three hours later still no prescription. This entire office is a joke. Clueless doctors. Rude staff. There’s referral staff even tried to talk me out of having a biopsy when I had a cancer concern.You can’t even go in and discuss what’s ailing you or concerns. Each concern or issue MUST be a separate visit and a separate copay. They really must have some student debt. Even a wellness visit is a quick physical and they push you out the door. There’s got to be doctors that care and do their jobs. This office doesn’t have them. If you’re looking for a new doctor’s office, run away from Ponderosa.
