Patient Reviews
Oct 22, 2024
Dr. Lak is kind and understanding. She listened to me and my concerns. She was the first doctor who did not blame me from the obesity but explained that it was hormonal and that was why I have struggled with weight loss throughout my life. She and her team are the best! Highly recommend.
