James E. Lyle's Online Review Report Card

I had had trouble with my knees for several years. Dr Lyle was recommended to me by several friends and relatives. He performed Total Knee Replacement on both my knees in 2020. They are both doing great. I could not ask for a better result. My wife had one knee replaced in 2020. She had her second knee replaced May 2023. Both of her knees are doing great. From the first time we went to his office, He and his staff treated us as if we were old friends. (We had never met him or anyone on his staff prior to that first visit.) We are both doing well and appreciate the great care we received.

I was a self pay of $200 for 15 mins of no help really. I guess since I did not have insurance to bill, I was not a priority. He helped my sister due to her good insurance, so I'll give him the benefit of 2 stars.

I give this Doctor 5 stars because from day 1 he treated me as if I was his only patient and he explained everything to me on a patients' level so it was easily understood. After my surgery I didn't have any pain at all. I now have the feeling back in my fingers and I am now able to sleep at night without the pain in my hand waking me up.

Dr Lyle was recommended to me by my primary care physician. Could not be more pleased with the care I've received - not just his expertise, but the time he takes with you. THANKFUL for him!

In my 62 years I have never been to such a horrible orthopedic doctor. He talks down to you like if you're ignorant he'll show you a model of a knee and he will tell you this is your knee this is what helps your leg to bend. Well obviously! When my husband and I went to go see him about my husband's issue I have never been talked down like that before! And he was also talking down to my husband! Little did he know I also have a medical degree and if I talk like that to my patients I would be losing them right and left. One of my friends who had surgery done by this person got an infection while she was in the hospital and he yelled at her saying it was her fault for getting that! When she told me I told her she needed to contact the hospital administrator and let him know or her know and how she was being treated. Nevertheless I would not recommend him at all!

Dr Lyle is the best ! Treated me for ankle fracture - surgery and aftercare -(dislocated and 3 fractures)— he was knowledgeable, informative and caring .. office staff was great — being a nurse , I was anxious about being immobile, being out of work for long — pain was minimal, not immobile long and back to work and walking as soon as possible .. I hope to never have another fracture but, if I do, will request him .. and recommend him to those who want excellent care . Thank you

Dr Lyle is the best ! Treated me - surgery and after for ankle fracture — being a nurse , I was highly anxious of being out of work and immobile long - surgery was great success, pain minimal and immobile — not for long :) great Dr , great staff

I could not be more pleased with my experience with Dr. Lyle. He took his time, explained things thoroughly in a way I could understand. Very personable and caring. And the staff was friendly and efficient. A+ all the way around!

I saw Dr Lyle for a knee injury. I had fallen & twisted my knee & it was swollen & stiff & somewhat painful. First off, the scheduling folks were friendly & courteous. I got in on a cancellation. I was never felt to be a “bother” even though I called several times to check on getting an earlier appointment. The “upfront” staff were friendly & efficient. Dr Lyle’s bedside manner is excellent. He explained everything thoroughly, took time to answer questions, did a thorough exam on my knee, and what really impressed me was that I didn’t come in with a laptop computer and spend his time attending to it & not the patient. Dr Lyle ordered X-rays that were done on site & available for him to review & talk to me about. I had a follow visit a week later & again, he did a thorough exam & answered all my questions. I am very satisfied by the care I received & would highly recommend Dr Lyle to others with orthopedic issues.

Very satisfied with Dr Lyle, everything went great. Very good bedside service. Would recommend him to anyone!!
