Love Dr Lizzote, I drive from Murrieta, CA where I first started seeing him over a decade ago. He thinks outside the box and listens to me.

I made an appointment over 5 weeks ago to see this Doctor I explained to his representative that I was diagnosed with a torn meniscus and was in extreme pain I was walking with a cane. I needed a second opinion to be cleared because of my age for a operation. I continually got text messages about this appointment . Within 24 hours of the appointment I was called and it was cancelled the next appointment 7 weeks away When you miss your appointment frequently your charged for not showing But a Doctor can do it to you without any consequences or repercussions I would never recommend this Doctor!!!!! How Arrogant!! read more

I was at this location yesterday to screen for a clinical study. The staff was really incompetent and untrained. The nurse practitioner has an extremely aggressive bedside manner, telling what symptoms she thought I should be experiencing, even though I wasn't. Dr. Lizotte freaked my husband out telling him I was going to have a stroke or cardiac episode. He insisted I should go to the ER because something was wrong. He insisted the ER nurse would look at my blood pressure and rush me back. Not the case at all, I ended up spending 8 hours sitting in an ER and left with no diagnosis, normal labs and EKG. The folks in the office there don't even know how to take a manual blood pressure, they solely rely on machines to do their job! Do better folks! Don't go here for healthcare or to participate in a study. read more

Dr.Lizotte is the most amazing physician we have had in all our lives. My husband and I are both in our upper 60's. Dr. Lizotte always takes time to listen to and never rushes us. He is worth driving 45 minutes to get the quality care which is so rare. read more

When I had to move to Oceanside 3 years ago, I felt nervous to find a primary physician that understands/treats my increasing health issues. The 1st MD I chose was for me the very best. I could right away talk straight about my need & what I would refuse. Dr. Lizotte always listens intensely & had questions to understand my situation completely. Dr.Lizotte told me of his professional past, which gave me a more complete picture of him. He is oriented to the details & very thorough by not prescribing unnecessary diagnostics/treatments. His staff is also very well professional & I feel very welcome when I go to his office which is very tasteful & bright decorated. It gives me a positive impression right when I enter the office. In total, for me it was a very good change & for sure, I stay with Dr. Lizotte! read more

They could answer the phones. If it's inconvenient for him It's not patients first when there's a problem. read more

Don't use this PCP because the staff is undertrained, incompetent, understaffed and overworked where they NEVER ANSWER THE PHONE and they make really bad mistakes either because of carelessness or incompetence. I liked Dr. Lizotte and believe that he cared and wanted the help me but his support staff are knuckleheads causing me problems repeatedly. Dr. Lizotte..... it is time to retire and I am out of here. read more

I am so lucky to have Dr. Paul Lizotte as my, and my husband's doctor. I have been a RN for 40 years and have never had care like Dr. Lizotte provides. He is super smart, kind, thorough and best is he really cares. He has a wonderful bedside manner, listens and always has the patients best interest at heart. He truly cares about his patients, they come first! Today Dr. Lizotte went way above and beyond for me. I had a mammogram and was never notified, as is law, from the facility.Turns out I have a nodule that needs further study. 3 weeks has gone by and I didn't know. The study clearly states they would call me and they did not. Dr. Lizotte called the Supervisor of the Imaging facility to discuss this situation. Dr. Lizotte is a Board Certified Radiologist as well so he knows the laws and rules/regs. Now, what doctor does that?! He stopped and took the time to care about me to assure I get the proper and timely follow up. Guess what, because of him I got my appointment for Wednesday instead of 3 - 4 more weeks out. But, this is who he is, and what he does! We could go to any doctor but we choose, and have for many, many years to go to Dr. Lizotte. We feel safe under his care and not sure what we'd do without him. He is notches above others!! You too will be in good hands and I highly suggest you make an appointment with him, you too will feel as lucky as I/we do. Sincerely, Kathy read more

Dr. Lizotte is the best PCP I have ever had. However, in the last month or so, when I call his office, no one answers and goes to voice mail which I'm yet to get a return call. Have they closed this practice? read more

I am a new patient and was trying to make an appointment. I've tried for a week to talk to someone to make an appointment. The call goes directly to a voicemail. I left the message several times and never received a callback. This reflects poorly on his staff. I can't imagine being sick and trying to be seen on the same day if they never pick up the phone and return the call. Needless to say, I will find a new practice. read more

Dr. Lizotte is the only doctor I've ever known that actually puts patients before and above all else. He cares not about anything else but YOUR OPTIMAL HEALTH which is absolutely the rarest characteristic of any doctor left 'practicing' medicine. Well Paul doesn't 'practice' medicine. He performs medicine to the highest levels. The office is quite beautiful as well as the staff who are always on top of things. read more

I am writing this on the behalf of my Mom and her consistent negative experiences with this establishment. She gets a call yesterday from them a few minutes prior to noon. She is not able to answer and it went to voicemail. The voice message asked for her to call back. She promptly did and it went to voicemail. After doing so several times, I also did and it also went to voicemail. I left a voice message as well. We gave "the benefit of the doubt" and see if they called back that afternoon. There was no phone call and this is not an isolated incident. There are other customers who walked in and complained about the same issue. The receptionist gave an excuse that it involved their phones being connected to Tri City Hospital's phones and that they were down. That was roughly two weeks prior and I think it is ridiculous that these problems are not fixed. read more

Dr. Paul E. Lizotte is the first Doctor to CONTROL my Diabetes. He takes the time to really diagnose the problem, and then really provides the awareness of different options that he feels would work. And he fights the insurance companies in order to get the prescriptions that are effective vs the ones they make money on. read more

What a wonderful Doctor to have take care of me. I believe he is the most knowledgeable Doctor I have ever had. He listens and then he explains things very well so anyone can understand. He helped me when I told him about the emotional journey of my daughter's cancer. He was on the Tumor Boards at Ohio State and he offered me patient understanding of what I am feeling. I appreciate his level of professional care and also his ability to empathize with my situation. Thank you Dr. Lizotte for listening, prescribing and helping me understand what I need to do. Sandy MacKenzie read more

Dr. Lizotte is a very good doctor. It is his staff that I write this poor review. When you call the office there is an automatic recording that states call volume is high. You never , ever get to talk to the staff. This is unfortunate because it is like the DMV, you can never get through. For that reason I will be looking for a new doctor. If you can't even leave a message for your doctor, that is poor practice and unethical and is also on the verge of negligence. read more

Not a very accommodating office. Had an appointment and got the 6min late an a new patient. They sent me a text, not call, about having to be the 30min early. I had an hour drive to get there and was stuck in heavy traffic so I wasn't able to get there early. Tried giving them a call 2 times and was sent to voicemail. Left a voicemail and texted them to inform them about the situation 30-40min prior to getting there. Finally I got there and they told me they had to reschedule me. Even though I filled out my paperwork in less than 10min. I asked if the doctor knew about the situation (I work in the medical field as well and we're very accommodating to the patients) and they said he will absolutely not see patients that are not on time. I was only 6min late to my actual appointment time! Very disappointed because I took off from work early to be able to make this appointment that I waited over a month for since the doctor was on vacation. I get everyone needs vacation but I'm disappointed in the experience and how the front office lady handled the situation. She didn't even get up from her chair to let the doctor know about everything. read more

Paul Lizotte, DO FACP - Internal Medicine Near Me - Oceanside, California

Dr Lizotte is absolutely amazing. He shows so much care and concern for his patients. Considering changing insurance to be able to see him regularly! read more

In this crazy world of health care insurance, it was such a pleasure meeting with Dr. Lizotte of Seaside Medical Group. He spent time listening to my concerns, he interacted with his obvious knowledge regarding my situation and is taking immediate action to get me with the specialist that I need to be cared by. Thank you Dr. Lizotte it's a wonderful feeling to have a doctor that truly cares and has the patient as his priority. Also, his staff and the clinic space are first class! read more

I've been taking my 88 year old mother to see Dr. Lizotte for about three years. My mom has dementia, and Dr. Lizotte treats her very nicely. He spends time with us, and is quite thorough. What I like best about him is his advocacy for patient rights when facing the drug manufacturers. He has been very helpful in making sure that my mom gets the prescription drugs she needs. He has been a blessing to us. read more

Dr Lizotte is very knowledgeable and very professional. I can highly recommend Dr. Lizotte.

Dr. Lizotte has been amazing! He is genuinely interested; he listens and also thinks outside the box. I had about a dozen friends who kept insisting I consult Dr. Lizotte about my situation. I'm so glad I took their advice. He's like a modern-day Dr. Welby! Very rare in this world of drive-through medical care. read more

I have an appointment with this office later this week. When I called to give them my insurance information, I was told 4 times by Jackie that I was not in Blue Shields network. Even though I asked her 4 times if she was spelling my name right, she said she had. When I asked to spell it, she was adding an extra letter. It's very frustrating to that should not get the spelling correct even after asking her. I'm sorry, but how can I trust a Doctors office to take care of me, when they can't even spell a name correctly. I'll let you know how my visit went. read more

Dr. Lizotte is a true standout from the typical Temecula/Murrieta doctor. My wife and I have experienced both the "quick in-and-out prescription writing" doctor to the "whole body supplement prescription" physician, but Dr. Lizotte is neither. Right away, Dr. Lizotte demonstrated that his number one concern is patient care. He wasn't interested in getting me out the door quickly or putting me through an unending regime and pushing me to buy a number of supplements. Instead, we could tell in the first few minutes that he's different from the rest--he's knowledgeable, has tons of experience, and does whatever it takes to get a correct diagnosis and treatment. For instance, it turned out that I needed a specialist, and he referred me to a doctor outside of his own medical group who he felt would be more competent to handle my case. Dr. Lizotte is authentic, smart, and just really good. We cannot recommend him more! read more

The best doctor I've had ever. He remembers you every time and is very detail oriented with every question and or concern that you may have each visit. read more

During a time when the medical profession seems so impersonal his professionalism and eagerness to give great care is refreshing and appreciated. Dr.Lizotte and his staff went the extra mile to ensure my life threatening diagnoses was quickly handled by the right people. We want to commend Graybill for hiring such a true professional and someone who truly cares about his patients. Thank you, Bryce and Stacy Chandler read more

We moved here a year ago from Long Beach. We hadn't had a great doctor in many years but now we do! Dr. Lizotte is so patient, calm, understanding, explains things well, answers questions, and spends as much time with you as you need. I never feel like he is rushing me out of the room. He is wonderful. I am so glad we found a great doctor. read more

My mom and I absolutely love Dr. Paul Lizotte. He truly cares about his patients wellbeing. So sad to see him leave Graybill but we are thankful that we found him. Huge loss for Graybill to lose an amazing doctor like Dr. Lizotte. I know there are lots of people looking for him but look no further. You can reach him at 442-217-7967. read more

Great, Knowledgable Doctor!! Kind bedside manner, doesn't make me feel rushed, listens and addresses all my questions and concerns. Offers different solutions of treatment plans and medication (if needed) which is empowering and always educational. From torn ligaments to the flu, you will really feel like you are in good hands with Dr. Lizotte. read more

I have never had a doctor as good as Dr. Lisotte. I have seen many doctors, since I was the person to accompany relatives to their doctors. Dr. Lisotte is knowledgeable, very smart, very kind and patient. He has a vast background which he easily conveyed to me at my appointments. Some of the office could use a little more training. Once when I called to speak to his nurse, I was told, that since she had not called me, I could not talk to her, period. Another was very frustrating with insurance charges. It took a while to straighten that out. Nevertheless, it would take you a long time to find a better doctor, if such a person even exists. read more

Love Dr Lizotte. Very knowledgeable and compassionate Dr. Unfortunately, he has left Graybill. Does anyone know if he retired or is practicing somewhere else? read more

As others have stated, Dr. Lizotte is the best at what he does. He not only has a great bedside manner but he is also attentive to your needs as a patient. He provides detail oriented information and quality care. He is very knowledgeable and experienced and if he does not know the answer to something he will research it and provide you with solid info. If there are multiple treatment options/medications he takes the time to explain each to ensure you are making the best choice for yourself. Lastly, his nursing/MA staff is very responsive to his patients!! Kudos to them as well! He books up fast but rest assured when it is your turn you will get excellent care! read more

Excellent PCP. A genuine patient avocate. We need more physicians like this doctor. He has excellent bedside manner and is extremely knowledgeable. read more

Dr Lizette is a good doctor and cool human being. He'd be my doctor right now if it wasn't for Graybill. The Medical Group has no respect for a person's time and only seems to be interested in profits. read more

One of the best Doctor in Temecula, he takes is time with his patients. Thank you so much.

Dr Lizotte takes time to really know and understand your individual health needs. His knowledge, compassion and sincerity is unmatched. I highly recommend Dr Lizotte to anyone searching for a qualified GP who genuinely cares about his patients. read more

Best Dr. in Temecula hands down!!!! Had an appt with him yesterday to get my Hepatitis Vaccine and he asked me if there was anything else that brought me in for a visit I told him that I had knee surgery in December and I found out he used to be a radiologist and I have PVNS in my knee which was the reason for surgery and he was so so INVOLVED as he's very familiar with what I had. To be honest he was 100x better than my orthopaedic surgeon. He wasn't trying to get to the next patient like every single doctor I've already been to in Temecula. He took his time with our appt and I admire that a lot about him AMAZING AMAZING DR. At first I thought to myself where the heck did he come from because I've been in search for a good doctor in this area and my wishes have finally come true. read more

I have been a patient of Dr. Lizotte for several years. His patient care and bedside manner is so rare these days. He manages to make me feel at ease and I appreciate the time he takes to give me 100%. With his high degree of skill his recommendations for referrals when needed have always been on point. Whenever a neighbor or friend is looking for a good doctor I always recommend Dr. Paul Lizotte. Thank you Graybill for having such a superb doctor on your staff! read more

I spent an inaugural hour today at Dr. Paul Lizotte's new office in Oceanside today called Seaside Medical Group (https://seasidemedgroup.com). This was a special visit for me since my current medical insurance will cease at the end of October. Dr. Lizotte's staff is wonderful--very patient and friendly. I think Dr. Lizotte just relocated from the Temecula area, so don't worry that his office appears to be brand new. This doctor knows his stuff. He is very well read, experienced, and obviously educated in multiple areas of medicine and physical conditions. Now, I will say he is a good story teller, but I think that's how he gets to know his patients better, so in this world of hurry, hurry, hurry, I had to step back and let his process unfold during our visit. I'm glad I did as it is very obvious he cares about his patients and is a good listener. Today was my first visit and I am hopeful that I will be able to have this same insurance provider with my next job so I can continue to be a patient of Dr. Lizotte. He was refreshing and surprising and I'd be blessed if he could be my doctor in the future. read more

Loved Dr Lizotte, he was very attentive, knowledgeable and personable. His sense of humor made us feel at ease and comfortable. In today's stressful health care environment, this was a refreshing experience. read more

Dr. Lizzote was absolutely a breath of fresh air. I moved from Palm Desert and I was spoiled out there. There was nothing but amazing physicians out in the desert. I moved to Temecula, CA in October 2017. It has taken almost a year for me to establish myself with a primary care Dr. I have seen several others. But they were less than mediocre. Dr. Lizzote impressed me within the first minuet! He is a Pharmacist and a Radiologist and a Family Medicine Doctor! His credentials are incredible. He got his training by Ernest Mazzaferri who was world renowned endocrinologist at the University of Ohio. Dr. Lizzote knows his medication! With a backround as a pharmacist he knows what interacts with what. He is absolutely the best primary care physician I have ever encountered or had. I am a Registered Nurse and have been for years and I have never seen such an amazing doctor like him! The front office is very frustrating and RUDE!! But keep in mind that you are not there to see them, you are at the right place to see a very prestigious physician. He does not have control over who runs the front office. Dr. Boyatt is also amazing if you are looking for a female doctor. Melinda LVN is amazing!! So compassionate and has a genuine heart. All of the LVN's are very kind and sweet. Overall my first experience went really well! I love Dr. Lizzote and I am looking forward for him to treat me for the rest of my life. Thank you!! read more
