He's such a rude Dr. Never will I ever recommend him to anyone. I went in to talk about my hernia and get it fixed and he was beyond disrespectful. He's such an arrogant a-hole. Seen me less than 5 minutes called me fat and then tried to tell me I needed to get on weight pills. I'm a bigger girl and could go to lose a few pounds but not that big. I'm actively losing weight but I still have the baby weight of just having my most recent child and he made me feel absolutely horrible about myself. Didn't care to listen to my concerns or how much pain I'm in. All he cares about was that I was fat and need to take meds to make me not fat. He's so disrespectful and very rude. His nursing staff and people in the office were amazing he was the one that ruined my experience with Drs. I hope he retires

This doctor was rude and did not listen to my complaints. I felt like I was given the run around and after waiting over 40 minutes in the lobby, alone was enough to be irritated. Then, I waited almost 20 minutes before the doctor even came into the room. The nurses and intake staff were pleasant and nice but I will never go to Dr. Lippie again. This really was one of the worst doctor appointments I have ever had. Don't waste your time and money. Go with someone else.

I’m always on time & appreciate it when the Dr’s office is running on time. Dr Lippie was down to earth explaining his decision about my not needing a surgery. I have no idea how many patients may go thru an unnecessary surgery, but pleased that I was not one of them.

Dr. Lippie educated me on my triple hernia surgery and answered any questions that I may had about my surgery. He is very good at his profession as well as all the staff at Lutheran Hospital in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Thank You so much for the Excellent Care and now it’s time to heal for my next adventure.
