Dr. Joel Isidore Lans, MD

I would only send my worst enemy to this self-indulged medical imposter! When I awoke during EGD, he told attending nurse not to give me more medication because he wanted to get to his weekend sooner. He didn’t want to have to wait longer for me to wake up. I was gagging from procedure tube down my throat for what felt like an eternity. He tortured me! This was a horrible experience I‘ll never forget! I hope karma catches up with him!

Unfortunately this dr has a temper, refused to let my husband listen in on the phone after my procedure while I was still medicated. Said if he was on the phone, he wouldn't tell me the results or talk to me. Accused me of doing something to myself since he couldn't find the problem. I would not allow this dr to touch another soul. Sad and scary. but very true!

I have been treated with more respect and attention by mechanics while getting my car's oil changed. I met the doctor 3 minutes before I was to have upper and lower GI procedure. I was anxious and worried and all he did was spit out questions about past treatments and shake his head at my answers in an effort to disrespect my primary care physician. When i awoke from the procedure, he told me what he found. Well he spoke, and when I asked a brief question he raised his hand to me and said, Don't interrupt...this happened 2 times. I waited until he finished and then told me what I had to do (another test) in order to get the medicine. He said he would refuse this medicine until I did what he said. After that he spoke to my husband--and had him run to the lab because the staff was busy. Corinne Yarwood
