Emory... The name says it all from award winning, most sought after hospital in the state of GA and…read moreCountry, best research hospital, etc. I can go on and on but we are discussing this location. I've been a patient at this practice 3yrs now. Dr. Tabassum Safari is one of the 4 doctors at the Lenora Church road location. The staff from the front desk to the nurses are all friendly, knowledgeable, patient , understanding professionals that are consistent on every visit. If you're uncertain about an appointment or insurance benefits, they will look into it and get you the answers. The office itself is nice and clean. Not very much decor in the lobby like most offices I've visited but it's nice. Several chairs spaced due to Covid precautions. 1 TV that's set on one channel more like an advertisement of Emory services. So a little something to ponder while waiting to be seen by your doctor The lab and exam rooms are typical nothing really special there. Parking lot is quite large .. I'd say at least 50 vehicles maximum including handicap parking. I do apologize for not taking more pics of the exam, lab and lobby areas but I will on the next visit. If you're looking for a Family Doctor, give Emory a try. There are several locations throughout the metropolitan area. Scheduling an appointment is easy and convenient. Most doctors are accepting new patients. One thing I love about Emory Healthcare is that everything is there. If you need a colonoscopy, it can be done there. Every visit, diagnosis, appointment, surgery, etc is in the portal. Your doctor is notified of every lab report and exam although he or she may not have done the procedure like a colonoscopy. It's pretty cool! It's a paper trail of your healthcare...Who wouldn't want that!

Today I had my first appointment with Dr. Schecter. When, oh when, will I learn to listen to that beautiful woman of mine more promptly?!? Dr. Schecter is one of those rare gems in medicine that takes a genuine interest in the patient. He may be running a bit late for your appointment but that's only because he actually spends the time to have a conversation with his patients instead of "talking to them". He is, without a doubt, the most personable, professional, caring, and understanding physician that I have come across in many years. As far as I am concerned, I will not see another general doctor, for as long as Dr. Schecter is practicing.

A doctor who is passionate, cares about her patients and on time. So we made an appointment and as a new patient there was a 2 month waiting list, which was fine no rush and this office is supposed to be exceptional so why not wait! As we arrived we were greeted by a not so friendly receptionist who was quite rude, we were asked multiple times who referred us and were proud to tell them we found this office online and chose it due to the overwhelming flow of great reviews. Well as Dr.Sharma came in to introduce herself she went on to ask the golden question of the office, who referred you? We told her we found the office online and she then explains well I work primarily with the elderly as an advocate for their health and I will do my best to work with you but you are young and healthy. I don't understand, why you would say that to a patient and why do you not understand we waited TWO MONTHS to see you and your telling us you might not be able to see him as a patient but you will try? Are you serious? Maybe you should have addressed this with the office to not schedule you a new patient that is younger than you prefer to see.. On top of this his appointment was very short and accomplished almost nothing then we were told he needed to come back for a physical in another 2 months!! No thank you, how is this place even running? What happens if someone is sick, do they need to wait two months too?? I would definitely not recommend this doctors office!

Dr. Tina Ann Thompson Kerr apparently was promoted at Emory despite her lack of care for patients…read more Her ego blinded her ability to hear a patient in pain which resulted in the patient dying.

The rate of breast cancer in black women is less than other races, yet black women die more from it that other races primarily because of doctors like Dr. Tina Ann Thompson Kerr who is guilty of ignoring the concerns and pains of patients.

I arrived at 9:15 and began filling out the paperwork. 10 minutes later I was getting called back for my vitals/statistics or whatever you call them by the awesome nurse Kia! She was helpful and very friendly. Made this part easy going. Dr. Lim was great as usual. The nurse who took my blood...guess what? Me. J. was awesome as well. From start to finish this Dr's office visit made my day. My appointment was at 9:45, arrived at 9:15, and out of the office with a very thorough check up by 10:15. Never have I experienced a Dr's visit such as this. From start to finish was nothing but exceptional customer service by exceptional employees and an exceptional doctor!

She is the most genuine, knowledgeable and down to Earth physician that you could ever ask God for! I am ABSOLUTELY appalled to read the review(s) which state otherwise. As a wife and mother of 10 children, she has cared for me holistically-mind, body and spirit. When I 1st met her (years ago) I was a struggling single mother in nursing school. I faced homelessness during this time. She waived many of my fees to still provide me with the care that I needed.... what other Dr. do you know who would do that for their patients? Most docs are about that all mighty $$$$. Not Dr. Lightbourne! She is focused on the Person, the Patient and her expertise in medical Practice. One of my best friends in my nursing cohort felt a lump on her breast during her self examination. She was very overwhelmed and distraught. Breast cancer ran in her family. She was uninsured at the time and did not have a PCP, so I immediately thought of MY doctor! I called Dr. Lightbourne and asked her to see my friend- she humbly agreed without hesitation. Today, my friend is Alive, well, an RN, and successful business owner, praise God! Ans still a patient of Dr. Lightbourne's. I am a successful Nurse Executive Manager with my Masters degree in Nursing. We both are very, very appreciative for the Lord bringing Dr. Lightbourne in our paths during our past stuggles in life and for being our care provider. All I can say is "go see for yourself!" She is very well put together, inside and out, head to toe (oh by the way she is very fashionable). She is soft spoken, patient and has excellent bedside manner. I will continue to refer my colleagues, family and friends to her.

Sadly, somehow a corporation took over and the information provided here is seriously incorrect. Also note that the corporation let go all of his prior staff and the overall service has become more difficult. I talked to the old staff at the Tree Lane address a few days before it closed and they all told me that the corporation flew a few geniuses in and over a not very thoughtful pizza lunch told all of his old staff that the office was moving, and they were not going to be moving with him or the practice. Yep, cost gutting capitalists took over and they don't give a you know what about the patients. Happily, Dr. Sharpe still does, and so I still use him as my PCP. Address update 976 Killian Hill Rd SW Lilburn, GA 30047 (770) 824-4091 So the new office is under staffed and Dr. Sharpe is working for an organization dedicated to getting as much money out of his practice as possible.

Making appointments is a breeze - even…read moresame day - the nurses and staff have always been kind, returned phone calls promptly, and have maintained the feel of the tiny practice Dr. West started with many years ago. The docs ... not so much. West now thinks he's a weight loss guru and Sharpe pays no attention to anything. Ms. Bertram is nice, but their former FNP Mr. Pettay was much better. Ms. Bertram always seems to be distracted and in a hurry - I once came to see her with a very simple/common 'lady issue' and she refused to treat me, even after I told her the reason I came to her was because I couldn't get a GYN appointment for another week. She still refused. It's funny ... as a nurse myself, I'd never worked with a doc/NP in any practice that would refuse to treat something so simple ... and then make me pay for the visit. If it was 15-20 years ago, I'd have nothing but raves for this group. Now it's all bells and whistles, flat screen TVs and free water and patient portals. I'd give it all back for the care I used to get in the tiny office in Snellville.
