Dr. Joseph Stephen R. Lomboy, MD

"The best and smartest doctor around. The office staff are phenomenal and do a great job. Very friendly. Dr. Lomboy and his wife, the other Dr. Lomboy, are very good and kind people who really care for their patients. The NPs they have in the office are wonderful and really invested in helping people out. This practice truly cares about their patients and values them. They are always striving to improve and do their best."

"I could go on for days about how wonderful Dr. Lomboy is. He is very thorough. He fought to save my life in 2017 through an episode with blood clots that many doctors said should've taken my life. Since then, he is in contact with my specialists to "put the pieces" of my medical puzzle together. He cares about his patients! He studies to stay on top of new medical research. His P.A., Candice Mize, is also one of the most knowledgeable around and can be trusted to make the correct decisions and collaborate with Dr Lomboy. He runs a top notch office staff. He checks on his patients when hospitalized. He has even personally called to check on me at home. I am SO blessed that he is my doctor!"

"***ZERO STARS*** I was admitted to Perry Hospital from the ER and Dr Lomboy was the hospitalist on call for that weekend. He was very rude, unprofessional and his "bedside manner" was horrible. I would NEVER recommend him to anyone and I hope that I don't ever have to deal with him again!!!!"

"Dr. Lomboy and his staff were very highly recommended and we were looking forward to working with them. Dropped our new patient paperwork off on Friday and was told they would call to request our records on Monday and they would set up appointments based on the review. Got a call from a staff member on Wednesday that after a review of our records, "we were not a good fit for their practice" and no expatiation as to why. When I called to request clarification, I was told that the doctor did not leave any additional information as to why."

"I was trying to get my mother, who is a retired Navy Veteran, a new primary care physician closer to her house. Lomboy's office is about a mile away and would have been perfect. They turned my mother down because they said that she was too "combative" after viewing her record of an ER visit at Perry Hospital a couple of days earlier. They were afraid that she would not be cooperative if seen there. A little back story (which they didn't care about): my father passed away in November 2017 (5 months ago) and my mother has developed a bad case of depression. She has been having trouble eating, sleeping, and just generally has problems taking care of herself. The list of issues we got at the ER were varied and alarming. Instead of having her come in for an initial visit and speaking to my mother themselves, Lomboy relied on a single event that happened under extenuating circumstances. My mother does not like hospitals, primarily because the last time she stayed the night in a hospital my father died. I'm not exactly sure what Perry Hospital told Lomboy's office. Was she happy that they told her they would more than likely admit her, no, who is? Did she express her displeasure, yes. Did I get all bent out of shape because they didn't have an actual doctor see her until she was there for 8 hours, no. in the end they didn't admit her. I was wondering how deep Georgia hospitality goes, and it looks like its pretty shallow, at least in the medical field."
