This was my first visit to the office. Dr. Lemak not only listened to me, he heard me. I explained to him what was going on with my knee and he quickly put me at ease with his knowledge about the knee and treatments that were the least invasive for my particular situation. By the time I left his office I was no longer afraid but ready to move forward with treatment and excited about retaining my mobility which is the most important thing for maintaining my health. Thank you to his office staff! They were professional yet soothing. They had me laughing and smiling all the way out the door!

Dr. Lemak and BOSS Orthopedics are a top notch organization. They allow you to pre-register for visits. Very convenient! If you have an appointment you are sent to the back usually within five minutes. Dr. Lemak and his staff are fantastic! The care is second to none.

Dr. Lemak is very friendly and personable. He takes the time to explain your options and the possible outcomes. I have only talked to him twice, my initial visit and surgery date, my follow-up was with Matt whom I liked as well. I will definitely use them again, when and if needed. Thank you so much!
