Lewis Stephen B, MD

I just had a first time appointment today with Dr. Lewis. So happy with the results. Everyone was great starting with Maggie who squeezed me in on the same day, to Brianna, and then especially Karen who genuinely cared for me.
Dr. Lewis was able to help me with a serious high blood sugar problem within an hour. I am happy I met this doctor and had such a good experience. He is very knowledgeable and quite a character.
Thank you!

Found the nurse practitioner Karen to be quite knowledgable. Wish the staff was a bit more patient. I’m trying to figure out my best plan for weight loss. She told me to cut down on my beer I’d rather find find other calories to cut. I appreciate the way she speaks the honest truth.

Looking for a new primary care doctor. Just called Dr. Lewis’ office and the receptionist was very unprofessional — talking to other people in the background, then put me on hold and forgot what we were talking about. She just seemed all over the place. I liked Dr. Lewis’ website, but after the call and reading these reviews, I will look elsewhere. I hope the office reads these reviews and makes some improvements in their practices.

Rudest Ghetto like Staff! My husband had been seeing Dr. Lewis for many years. He got very concerned to the level of care he was receiving. They were a rude staff to begin with and became worse after I requested my husbands medical records and told them that he was going to see another doctor. They looked for every excuse not to give him his records by trying to find a balance that my husband still owed them. Well, I had paid them in full back a few months ago and their billing service had not notified Dr. Lewis’ office. I literally had to go into the office leaving my job to straighten this out. Again… I can’t tell you how rude the staff was. I would never recommend anyone to see this doctor. About the level of care, the last time my husband had any blood work was 2011. He was not the type of doctor to ask questions and listen. He wanted my husband in and out of his office quick. We later find out from his new doctor that the insulin my husband was using was so outdated and that there was better medication out there. Thankfully my husband is doing much better now and receiving much better care.

The absolutely worst doctor experience I’ve ever encountered! Disgusting, dirty office with a sneering receptionist, a dog that licked my legs in an office full of junk and dirt. And the worst part — a rude, condescending, utterly unprofessional and bordering on cruel doctor! He humiliated me and spoke down to me because — the nerve of it — I wanted to meet him before I hired him as my doctor. Yes, you heard right — we hire our doctors. We are dealing with our health and well being and we should only work with medical professionals who are kind, compassionate, knowledgeable and capable. Not all doctor’s fit this bill and Dr Lewis was a cruel joke. He berated me, refused to look at my medical records and never let me say a word. But he spoke endlessly of his ‘accomplishments.’ I could care less if you worked with dignitaries if you aren’t capable to treat us individuals who are less accomplished with dignity, caring and respect. Shame on you, Dr Lewis. If I had the authority I would strip you of your medical license. You epitomize what is wrong in the medical community. Sickening experience. Do not go to this doctor. Consider yourself warned.

Went to see him for my thyroid and he went off on a tangent (about Idon’t even know what !) He prescribed me «scream cream» WTF? This was soooo inappropriate and off sides and nothing to do with my thyroid. I think he might be part of a witch doctor exchange program from another country, but somehow I still like the guy… If you can sit through his nonsensical incoherent babbling, maybe you can walk out with the prescription you went in for.
UPDATE: His weirdness seems to have gotten him in trouble. His office called this morning and said «we are no longer ALLOWED to see John Muir network patients». What has he done now? Prescribed «scream cream» to the wrong person perhaps? Maybe some lawyers wife?

So… Dr. Lewis himself is a little odd to say the least. But… his longstanding weight loss program is great and it really works! If you want to try the program minus the psyco, then get an appt. with his PA-​Millena. She is excellent!
