    My family and I have been going to this medical group since 2004, so I will warn you that this…read moregroup only cares about your money. They don't care about you at all, and they lie straight to your face. The nurses that make the calls/pick up the phone are hostile and horrible to work with. If you go in for an appointment, which costs you 50 dollars (or whatever your copay is) just to go in, you see the doctor for about 3 to 5 minutes and will rush through your appointment as fast as they can, you end up waiting for close to 30 minutes in the exam room before you actually get to see the doctor; more than a 50/50 chance that you'll walk out of the office with a random prescription that doesn't fix your medical issue. I guarantee that you will spend more time waiting than anything else. Another tactic they like to use is holding prescriptions hostage, medications that you need for everyday living, against you if you do not come in for a visit, and they will refuse to give any of the medication until you go in for an appointment. For me, my medication allows me to go through everyday life without having the 10 panic attacks a day that I had been having prior to taking this medication. The nurse that called did not explain why I needed to come in, only telling me that this would be the last refill I would receive without getting an appointment. I told her that I was not comfortable to go in, with everything that's going on right now, and that I did not want to spend 50 dollars for them to do nothing but give me the same prescription that I've been getting for months! It's completely ridiculous. So in conclusion, Don't waste your time or money! DO NOT GO!

    I have been a patient for a very long time. I have seen quality of care and professionalism slip…read moredownwards over the last three years to a place that I never thought it could go. I switched PC because Damico takes all of 5 minutes, rushes you through the visit like you are an inconvenience, and throws pills at every problem. Then you have Shah, who is actually better than Damico and takes her time, but then tries folk medicine cures. If you have a PHD, why tell someone to drink apple cider vinegar for heartburn? Yes, you heard this correctly. Every answer she has is some honest to goodness real medicine, yet she throws the low-rent frontier home remedies in like its real science. Then you have Purcel. He's probably the best, but when he takes so much time with his patients that the others have to wait an extra hour and a half to see him (without any staff calling you on the phone to let you know) then you almost want Damico to yank you through an appointment. Then you have the staff. Mean, inattentive, and just plain dim. there are two of the desk personal that are nice. Two. The rest are unfriendly machines that need repairs often. I asked why no one called me to let me know that Purcel was a foul 1.5 hours behind. "We, um, don't call, um, because he may catch up". I informed them that the real reason was it would make the office look bad. Or as I feel, give an accurate portrayal of what really goes on there. Please be advised that no matter how good a doctor may be, his desk staff can ruin anything. Skylands Medical staff are very good at destroying a therapeutic environment with their sour ineptitude. You are better off going elsewhere.

    Suma Ghanta, MD, and Rebecca Keenan, PA are recommended. I…read morevisit this office about 3-4 times per year. Both listen and have been spot-on with diagnoses. I prefer to see Rebecca Keenan, as we have a good rapport, and she knows my history and personality. My husband has seen Dr. Peters, and has been satisfied. This practice has great hours and is close to home. Most of the staff are friendly.

    I have read some negative reviews of this practice which almost all focus on scheduling, billing,…read morewait times, and other office related matters that patients have found annoying. I haven't experienced these issues to any greater extent than any other medical practice. Any issue of such a nature that anyone could have pales in comparison to what should be the number one priority - competence and diligence of the doctors. All the doctors I have seen over the many years at this practice have been excellent. I believe Dr. Peters saved my life. After seeing I didn't take any follow-up action (which means she was personally keeping track of me) on inconclusive results on a scan, Dr. Peters called me personally and insisted I go for a biopsy. It was cancer and delaying treatment further could have been catastrophic. The doctor I ask for most often is Dr. Friedman. He is attuned to my preference to avoid meds and helps me focus on preventative care and other solutions. I have heard stories of doctors outside this practice who insist that only a single medical concern be addressed at a visit. Dr. Friedman will address as many unrelated concerns as I bring up at a single visit. Getting a proper diagnosis can be the most critical aspect in addressing a medical issue. Dr. Miccio's diagnostic skills are quite remarkable and the greatest asset of the practice. Countless times over the years he has zeroed in on the cause for some issue that other doctors had neglected to think of. For years my son had a recurring open sore on his cheek in the exact spot where, when he was a baby, a child bit him. For years other doctors said that was a coincidence and tried all kinds of ineffective treatments. I finally saw Dr. Miccio who immediately suspected it was not a coincidence and had the sore tested. It was herpes from the bite. The treatment he then prescribed was astoundingly effective. When weighing the positives and negatives of one practice over another, I think it's imperative to focus on what's really important for one's health instead of minor annoyances due to office related issues that, in my experience, are common to most practices.

    DO NOT GO HERE IF YOU VALUE YOUR OWN LIFE!!!!! I have been a lifelong patient here at Lakeview…read moremedical. Recently, they have been bought out by an LLC And have lost any value they hold for their patients. I have had to wait THREE days to get an inhaler and was only taken seriously when a man had to call for me. I have had two asthma attacks since my first request for an inhaler and very well could have lost my life if we did not have a spare from my brother at home. Jamie Pietka is a phenomenal doctor and Lakeview medical used to be a phenomenal office but unfortunately the new owner Has dug this place an early grave. If you are a woman DO NOT go here. If you value you or your loved ones lives, do not send them here. If you are currently a patient of what once was Lakeview Medical Center, I highly recommend you go to the office as soon as possible and get access to your medical charts before they are deleted like mine were! I had a wonderful experience with Lakeview medical, but unfortunately that experience is over and I have to do my part and warning others.
