Dr. Lord is outstanding! She has performed two lumbar spine surgeries on me over three years with excellent results both times so I suppose this should be my second review of Dr. Lord rather than my first.

She has repeatedly failed to post her Epic progress notes despite numerous repeated attempts reminding her and her assistant to please address this. 👎🏻 My insurance carrier denied paying for 2 MRIs because Dr Lord is either too busy, doesn't care, or is incompetent to post her Epic progress notes. ➖ I had to pay over $3,000 out of pocket cost due to her lack of caring and consideration. 🦴 I'm happy that this Dr Lord and her office team treated me like ... read more

I had the privilege of being under Dr. Elizabeth Lord’s care for a C5-C7 laminectomy with spinal fusion in the summer of 2024. Her exceptional surgical skill and professional expertise throughout this complex procedure have made all the difference in my recovery and quality of life. Before my surgery, I was living with severe pain and fear of injury that affected my daily life. Dr. Lord took the time to thoroughly explain the procedure, answer all my questions, and ensure I felt confident moving forward. Her surgical experti... read more
