Not given

As far as his abilities as being a doctor goes he is good, but, however, his bedside manner stinks, he is an old fashion type of dr that reminds you of someone off of 'Leave it to Beaver' episodes,  his long waits in the waiting room is horrible! Always count on waiting at least an HOUR if not more in the waiting room and another 30 to 45 minutes or more in the exam room! The office staff tend to be a bit sour and they like to voice their opinion if you want to reschedule your appointment if you wish to no longer wait! (like its any of their business).

But, as far as his abilities, he is a good dr, if you can put up with all the other faults.

Comments by grubgal on 06/28/06:

I somewhat agree with LoveLite143.  However, it is not just Dr. Lemmer that has the long waits.  Every physician in this practice will keep you waiting.  It's just because they are very busy and there are not a lot of these type of specialists in our area.  Even though there is always a wait, I always feel it is worth it because he takes his time with me and I don't feel like he's just trying to rush me out to get to the next patient like many other doctors make you feel.  I agree that his bedside manner could be interpretted as somewhat old fashioned.  His personality is a little dry.   But I leave the office feeling better because he does take his time and appears very knowledgable about my case anyways.  He always makes sure that I understand everything before I leave.  I recommend this doctor if you want to get results.
