Dr Lane is the best. He has performed 4 surgeries on me and every time it has been successful and exactly as he described. Obviously I trust him and I would go nowhere else. He is patient and answers all of my questions and concerns. He will not try to talk you into something you do not need. He took great care this last time repairing my biceps tendon rupture and I could not be more pleased. Thank you Dr Lane!

I have only seen this doctor once. Afterwards I felt that I needed more feedback from him as to what was found on my tests.. what my dos and don’t and implications should be. I am at home and still wondering

Dr Lane performed my full knee replacement. I received treatment for a knee injury which eventually led to surgery. The surgery went smoothly and was successful. I have a complete recovery following the physical therapy. Dr Lane never treated me like a number. I look forward seeing Dr Lane for the follow ups. I very highly recommend Dr Lane.

Very nice and personable but after 2 visits of explaining my severe Sciatica pain I was only given a steroid 6 day pack treatment and no shot to relieve my excruciating pain. Disappointed

Came in to see Dr Lane because I slipped on the ice and feel on my knee. Dr Lane took X-rays and found it was not broke. He gave me a shot to help the gout was was causing the pain. I am very satisfied with the treatment I received from Doctor Lane. I will return again

Doctor Lane has been our Orthopedic Surgeon for the last seven years. Two full hip replacements for me and back surgery for my wife. Doctor Lane is the best, informative, thoughtful and takes the time to explain procedures and answer questions. In this day and age of hurry up, Doctor Lane is the exception. I highly recommend him and his staff.

Dr. Lane was wonderful to work with in resolving my fractured vertebrae. He was accurate forthright in his diagnosis and was direct him telling me exactly what I needed to do for the healing to take place. Overall my experience with Dr. Lane and the staff has been excellent. Ortho Virginia has been excellent in supporting my recovery from my riding accident. I highly recommend Dr. Lane and the staff.
