I met Dr Lemar for the first time and he explained my problem to me in a way that no other doctor has explained to me since I have been doctoring for as long as I can remember. He took the time and patient to explain everything to me. He called my son in Georgiatown because he could not be with me. I want him to be my main doctor but he only does kidney. I hope that all doctors can be like him. He has students learning from him a lot.

His staff is the only thing negativde about this office. He really took the time to explain everything to me and my sister about our Mom. He is very honest and caring and funny too. He is very decent in his ways and we really admire him.
