Everyone. I can't state this enough. Dr. Lamont and her PA, and even the assistant helping with notes and toys for my two year old. Everyone was so friendly and listened. No one, not even the doctor, rushed me when I had a million questions. I felt like I was the only patient that mattered and that is such a rare occurrence, I can't thank you enough.

Everyone was absolutely amazing! The front desk lady's were so sweet. The staff and doctor for this office made the appointment the best doctors appointment I've ever been to. Everyone was smiling, sweet, and caring. I wouldn't change a thing.

Dr. Lamont is an amazing doctor. They should put her photo next to the word doctor in the dictionary! She exemplifies everything you want in a doctor for your child. She is really there to make her patients happy not necessarily the parents. She has spoken to my daughter like she is an adult and asked her the questions about her condition and how it affects her. Dr. Lamont is also a very accomplished surgeon. I feel that we are in very capable hands. Thank you for having Dr. Lamont as one of your orthopedic doctors.

I have nothing bad to report. We get to that office, and we are greeted with kindness, we wait a few minutes, and then we go back to see the doctor. When we get back there, (patient) has to have a current X-ray taken so the doctors can look at. Then the doctor comes in, shows you the X-ray, does a bunch of physical tests, and discusses future activities with the injury. Then we say goodbye, make an appointment for three months from now, and call it a day. No waiting around for 45 minutes in the waiting area and another 25 minutes in the room. Just in and out. That's how it should be. That is a well-run clinic. I, for one, appreciate it very much. I only wish the other doctors we deal with had the same philosophy and management style.

Dr. Lamont is a very personable doctor. She spoke to (patient) and me in language we could understand easily. She showed us (patient's) X-ray and explained everything that we need to know. She is kind, warm, and good at what she does. She is a true asset to Cook Children's Hospital.
