Dr Lichon is a wonderful doctor. His receptionists are nightmares. The nurses are ok sometimes. I don't like to call or make an appointment because they don't to care for the patients. If it wasn't for Dr Lichon I wouldn't be here.

I have been going to Dr Lichon for a while now and I've been blessed in that generally I don't have to wait a long time for anything. I believe I am a patient that is hard to take care of cuz I have alot of diseases with alot of issues because of them. I feel bad that anyone had to care for me. I am grateful for everything.

I always feel heard and cared for when I visit Dr. Lichon. I have a complicated medical situation as my primary care doctor has described it, and after seeing a number of specialists, it was Dr. Lichon who was able to diagnose me correctly. This led to me being appropriately treated and I finally stopped getting worse. Very grateful for Dr. Lichon.
