Lewis Pamela P MD

Dr. Lewis performed surgery to remove a lump from my breast. Surgery was very successful and I remain cancer free a year and a half later. Thinking back, I’m most impressed with how well my initial consultation with her was. I was still dealing with the knowledge that I had cancer and couldn’t think of a single question I should be asking. So I asked what questions do people usually ask. She was great and even drew me pictures to help explain and wrote down the most pertinent information so that I could share the info with my family later. I’m so fortunate that she was my surgeon.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Lewis for almost a decade and when I left her office today after my annual post-​opt visit I found myself thinking about how incredible and special she is. She is not only an amazing surgeon but an amazing human being. She has given me so much time and attention over the years, the polar opposite of those docs who rush in and out and seem to be more concerned about the minutes ticking away on the clock than their patient’s medical needs. She always takes time to ask me about my life and chat about other things that are happening around us… but never at the expense of my medical exam. Somehow she finds time for both. I should also mention her surgical skills. I was referred to Dr. Lewis because I didn’t like the attitude of the doctor who operated on me to remove a malignant calcification on my breast (DCIS). In my opinion his margins were small, his ego was large and, hence, I wanted a second opinion. Dr. Lewis found another small calcification he had missed but is such a skilled surgeon that 8 years later you can’t tell that an area of breast tissue was removed. The scar is practically invisable and you would have to look very closely to notice that one breast is slightly smaller on the top than the other. So as I walked down the street thinking about what a gift she has been to me I wanted to give something back to her… a Five Star rating to a 10 Star Doctor. I’m sorry it’s the best I can do because she is Ten Star all the way.

Dr. Lewis was my surgeon for a procedure which involved removing a lump in my breast. She was fantastic through the entire process. Dr. Lewis did not rush the initial examination even though she was running slightly behind schedule, and made sure she answered all my questions and addressed all my concerns. The surgery went very smoothly and Dr. Lewis did beautiful work — It has only been a month since the surgery and my scar is hardly visible. I would recommend Dr. Lewis to anyone who needs a personable and very skilled breast surgeon.
