The reception staff are unprofessional and violate HIPPA; the doctor dis no follow-up to the cause of my mini-strokes; and her nurse needs to perform within the scope of her credentials as a nurse. The office manager needs to be fired as she is not professional and allows her staff to violate HIPPA!

Horrible. Will change your scripts w/out talking to you first. Stephanie, her so-called nurse, is rude and will yell at you if you miss appt. She is unprofessional and uncaring. If you don't schedule your follow-up Karres will take you off your meds and refuse to refill and not offer new meds. nor offer a follow-up so you can get refill or discuss options.Misdiagnosed a major, serious disease. A different doc reviewed Karres' notes and blood work and diagnosed me within minutes. Run.

I've never had such frustration with a doctor and her office: -when I found a lump in my breast and it was benign, she told me it's sometimes recommended that we don't do self examinations because we find things that don't exist. -she forced me to come in for birth control because I "needed" a Pap smear. When I came in, she asked why I was there since I already had one the year before. It has been an ongoing fight for me to have regular prescriptions from her and the staff! I'm so frustrated.

I have been with Dr. Lisa since she came to Newark and I adore her. She has taken very good care of me and I trust her completely. She is a wonderful doctor and I highly recommend her!

I would not recommend Dr. Lisa Karres. Very POOR "MEDICAL KNOWLEDGE AND POOR MEDICAL SERVICE! I had the worst "doctor /patient" experience with her. She has no bed side manner. She walks into "the office/ visit" like a Zombie, never taking into consideration "my personal medical history/records", never looking up from her laptop only checking off the "standard patient questions". I would not waste YOUR time going to her for any minor or serious medical issues. KNOWLEDGE & SKILLS POOR.

She was very kind and friendly. Exams always go well and she keeps mood light so everything goes smoothly.

Please do not go see this woman. Since I'm limited to characters I'll condense this- she almost ruined my life. If you have ANY kind of physical condition, RUN AWAY. All she will do for you is write you referrals to see other Dr.s. She does nothing herself. By the time I chose a new Dr. I was so ill in so many ways I almost needed to be hospitalized. Thankfully my new Dr. has gotten me mostly stable but I had some serious health issues that she should have caught over the time I was seeing her!!

Lisa is very inept and uncaring. She NEVER explains procedures, etc., to the patient. She NEVER spends more than 5-8 minutes with her patient. She always leaves the examination room unexpectedly and without notice. The patient is left wondering, "Is she returning?", "Is she prescribing me a RX?" -- I am NOT pleased with the quality of care she attempts to give. Final Rating: EXTREMELY POOR, the LOWEST.
