Dr. Southlake Orthopaedics

Dr. Blum and his staff did a Great job diagnosing my hip/ hip and knee issue. I’m not hurting as I did before the visit. The muscles around my knee is improving each day.

To Dr. Luka, Erica & Southlake Orthopedics I have been trying to find the right words to express how incredibly grateful I am to both of you, but honestly, I don’t know if words will ever be enough. After enduring two failed ankle surgeries with another surgeon, I had reached a point where I truly began questioning myself. I was in constant pain, I knew something wasn’t right, yet I was made to feel as though I simply had to accept that pain as my new normal. I started wondering if maybe I was imagining things or if I was somehow being unreasonable for continuing to say that something was wrong. Then I met Dr. Lukasiewicz. From the very beginning, he listened to me. He took me seriously. Most importantly, he made me realize that I was not crazy. There really was something wrong with my ankle, and he was determined to find it and fix it. And he did. Dr. Lukasiewicz didn’t just repair my ankle — he gave me my life back. After everything I had been through, having someone finally… recognize what was wrong and actually correct it meant more to me than I can possibly explain. And Erica, I want you to know that your kindness, compassion, patience, and care meant just as much to me. You both treated me like a person rather than a problem to be rushed through. You made me feel heard, cared for, and safe during a time when I had very little faith left in healthcare. What you may not realize is that you didn’t just heal my ankle. You healed my view of healthcare. After my previous experiences, I had become afraid to trust doctors and afraid to believe that anyone would truly listen to me. The two of you changed that. You reminded me that there are still healthcare professionals who genuinely care about the people sitting in front of them — professionals who listen, advocate, show compassion, and refuse to give up on someone who needs help. Dr. Lukasiewicz, thank you for believing me when I had started to doubt myself. Thank you for seeing what others missed. Thank you for fixing what I had been told I simply had to live with. And thank you for giving me something far more valuable than a successful surgery: hope and trust again. Erica, thank you for being such an important part of that journey. Your compassion and kindness will stay with me long after my ankle is healed. I truly believe the world needs more humans like the two of you. Doctors and healthcare professionals with both extraordinary skill and extraordinary hearts. I will never forget what you did for me. You didn’t just fix my ankle — you helped fix the part of me that had stopped believing that healthcare could be good. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for saving me, believing me, and giving me my life back. With sincere gratitude and appreciation, Amber

Dr.Kirchner was clearly interested in my issues and took the time to explain possible solutions. He was very patient and answered all of my questions. His staff was very friendly and easy to talk to as well.

Dr. Booker and his staff are awesome, very little wait time, great experience

Everyone is very kind. Waiting is minimal. Great office!

I was apprehensive about my knee and Dr. Jones helped me settle down and understand different processes that could help. I would recommend him to anyone needing orthopedic help. The staff was incredible, too; overall, it was an excellent visit.

Staff is friendly and Dr Whitehead is also. My experience there was totally positive. One thing that does need improvement, however, is the online checkin. After completing the paperwork online, I was told that some of it did not come through and I completed it in the office. My very positive experience with Dr Whitehead and the staff made the paperwork issue of no consequence.

Everyone at South lake orthopaedics was wonderful! Dr Smith is a great doctor! I definitely recommend!

Dr Isabell explained in detail my problem. I immediately trusted him. He solved my problem. Very very happy with office staff and every one on his detail. I would definitely recommend him highly!!

Dr. Smith was great. Whenever he was with me I felt like his attention was completly focused on me and my situation. The surgery went great. Thanks Dr. Smith.
