James P Lukavsky's Online Review Report Card

I was so impressed at my first visit with Dr. James Lukavsky! After 3 doctors under Cox’s disorganized authority, I finally found one who left Cox (much to my pleasure and for at least the one reason I knew why, I agreed with also). I was telling everyone how I finally found a one-of-a-kind doctor who was on the same page as I about few meds and our faith. However, my 2nd visit was for a physical and I became uncomfortable. (As a previous business owner, I probably expect more than a lot of people. Also, I am old enough to have lived during decades when customer service was an excellent experience. So what bothered me may be of no bother to you.) After visiting and chatting with Dr. Lukavsky for (I am only guessing) around 20 minutes, I happened to mention I was there for a physical. He said if you don’t mind, he doesn’t have time today and could we reschedule. I said O.K. and he left the room shortly thereafter. A girl finally came in the room and handed me (what I call a piece of scratch paper) about ¼ or 1/3 of a regular sheet of 8 x 10 paper. On one side was a list of things for diabetics with 2 items highlighted. She told me since I am not diabetic, I only needed to adhere to the 2 highlighted items. ?? On the other side of the same piece of paper was printed in small letters, other information for me. I believe God wants us to be frugal but … seriously, I can’t have my own sheet of paper and it can’t be typed out? I liked Dr. Luke a lot so I tried to overlook it all even though it made me uncomfortable. After digesting my rescheduled appointment for the slightly nerve-wracking, personal, physical the next a couple of days, I decided to call the office and ask for the nurse. I had a question about it and the meds Dr. Luke prescribed for me. Sue, the front office lady who answers the phone, asked if she could help me (after I had asked for a nurse). I had seen a review before I ever visited the first time of someone who had a run in with her and they considered her rude. Therefore, even though I didn’t appreciate her asking me (instead of just leaving a message for the nurse to call me), I said, “one of the things I wanted to ask the nurse is about the meds Dr. Luke prescribed (and told her my question about it). She proceeded to give me an answer. I said, O.K. and told her I will wait to hear back from the nurse for the other. A week went by so I called and asked Sue if she knew why I had not heard from the nurse. She said, "No". I said, "I would like to cancel my appointment then for my physical." She said, "O.K." and we hung up. Sadly, I don’t plan to go back unless it is absolutely necessary. My health and well-being is important (and besides, I’m what helps pay everyone’s paycheck in that office). I don’t need to feel dismissed and don’t need a control-freak-gatekeeper at my doctor’s office. She may even be the one who gets the reviews and it won't change anything. This is obviously not the first patient who has had a problem with her. I saw another review that was by a Sue but don't know the last name of the one at Dr. Luke's office.

Excellent all around. A real dr and super friendly, knowledable staff who work overtime to help. Dr. Is willing to listen and knows what to do.no excuses! It's been 7 years since I've had a primary care dr. of his caliber. I AM HAPPY TO BE A NEW PATIENT.IM CONFIDENT I WILL BE FOR YEARS TO COME BARING ANY SITUATIONS OUT OF OUR MUTUAL CONTROL. IM VERY HAPPY AND I BELIEVE YOU WILL BE ALSO 100% confident

Great office staff. Dr Luke as he liked to be called is personable, listens, addresses issues in such a way that I know he "heard me". I left his office feeling that my well-being was his top priority and he had a "plan" in writing to help us work together so I can live the best life I possibly can.

Great experience with Dr. Luke. My wife and I recently contracted Covid-19 Delta variant and good friends referred us to Dr Lukavsky. After our phone interview. We followed all his wise counsel and we recovered at home without having to be hospitalized. We are feeling Greatful for the godsend experience.

Thrilled to be a patient with this wholesome group of kind and caring people. They Are knowledgeable about the current issues impairing the ability to receive proper medical care and are diligently finding ways to fill the voids! You ALL are sooo appreciated in this prophetic time of profound deception! I count finding you as much of a blessing as it was to find my Pastor JDFarag.org. Essential supports in times of turmoil!! Thank you for that you do!!

Kind and very caring. The whole office is very Kind and knowledgeable. So great to have found Found a wonderful Doctor upon moving to Missouri.

I ended up seeing him after suffering of poison ivy/oak few years back because nothing worked for me after having 2 sets of steroid shots and steroid pills and creams and baths stuff I got frustrated and got an appt with him and BOOM first visit he prescribed me 3 medications it started working the same day and I didn’t itch as much as taking the 3 meds I will ONLY go back to him for this kind thing amazing the best thank you!

Dr. Luke and his staff are an amazing facility. Dr. Luke takes time with his patients and is very thorough. His staff are professional and friendly. I recommend them highly.

Great doctor and staff!
