I will not give reviews from a first impression anymore. Long story short the medication gave me a reaction. I let the doctor know she put me on another medication that still has not helped my blood pressure go down enough. I’m not happy with my current numbers but she like oh it’s fine. No it’s not, I’m seeing a new doctor

Dr. Jannet Lewis was wonderful. She was even a minute early on our Telehealth appointment! How many doctors can you say that about? She was direct, to the point, but also very friendly and open.

I am not a fan of the dr office . No matter how early you always wait . But not at Dr Lewis office . The front office staff was as kind and efficient as the back office .. the kindness and compassion shown me by Dr Lewis was unforgettable she put me right at ease . She was calm and patient no matter how dumb my question was. This is how one should be treated at the dr office . Dr Lewis took her time to hear me and my concerns along with my fear. I don’t encourage anyone to have a heart issue but if you have one she is the only Dr I would want . She is the Advocate for her patients best out comes.

Dr. Lewis was very professional, yet she immediately put me at ease simply because she was very calming. Even though I found out that Dr. Lewis couldn't serve as my primary care physician, she still took my history and gave me several recommendations for doctors who may serve as my PCP. I was very happy with Dr. Lewis's approach and I highly recommend her.

Dr. Lewis is a great listerner and gave clear explanations to medical questions I had. She also showed genuine interest in for my health; helpi g me set health goals and practical ways to reach those goals. Dr. Lewis outlined next steps regarding my care. But, most importantly is she is an excellent motivator,; offering confidence in my ability to tackle & conquer my health challenges.
This was my first appointment with Dr. Lewis. My wait time to see her was very short. My initial interaction with the nurse was very positive and pleasant. Dr. Lewis came in to see me quickly after I was seen by the nurse. Dr. Lewis was very pleasant in her initial interaction with me. She was very thorough in her examination, asked me lots of questions, responded to all my questions, and made appropriate follow-up recommendations. She was very respectful and pleasant in her manner. I look forward to continuing to work with Dr. Lewis.
Verified patient
Dr. Lewis is very thorough and does not request unnecessary test if the examination does not warrant it. She is very friendly and answers all your questions. I even asked her about the Plant Base diet approach to a healthier you and she was not opposed at all. She also communicated that she responds to the patient questions from the secure emails sent in zocdoc. This is very good when doctors are too busy to get back to you via phone call.
