Reviewed on April 16, 2021 With my history of rotator cuff injuries to the other arm in mind and mentioned, didn't feel the doctor was too concerned with my concerns, however he was very polite and pleasant. Very grateful he was able to fit me in so quickly.
Reviewed on July 23, 2020 When appointments are starting late, it makes sense that everyone wants to try to catch up to get back on schedule. I didn't appreciate being rushed and constantly cut off after waiting for over a half hour.
Reviewed on July 13, 2020 He was not concerned with the issue, and offered so help.
Reviewed on February 18, 2020 My concern was with my small toe bleeding. I had cut the nail of the toe but blood was coming from the cuticle. Dr Eckert said I probably cut the toe when I cut the nail. I would know if I cut my toe because it would have hurt. I don't feel he really looked very closely but I resigned myself to go along and hope for the best. The toe bleeds off and on and is still sore. Will make podiatrist appt.
Reviewed on November 27, 2020 I felt belittled during my visit. I am looking for a new doctor.
Reviewed on February 7, 2020 Worst experience ever at Lakeshore in 14 years. Dr. Eckert was very rude, condescending, pushy, interrupted & talked over me, minimized my concerns and seemed angry and argumentative.
