Lyon Primary Care

I’m genuinely saddened that this doctor has decided to move to a “membership only” practice and is now charging more than $3,000 for the privilege of staying on as a patient. After over four years of great experiences and trust built, it feels like loyal patients are being priced out. I already pay over $10,000 a year for health insurance, and now I’m being told to pay another $3,100 or find a new primary care doctor. It’s frustrating that quality care in Manhattan increasingly feels reserved for the 1%

I attempted to request an appointment via their website and got an error. After trying to call multiple times and getting voicemail - I finally reached a person who informed me that Dr. Lyon is switching to "a concierge model" where she will be taking a monthly fee upfront, like a subscription model, for the use of her services throughout the year. She is no longer taking new patients, but I wouldn't sign up for this "membership medicine" model either.

Dr Lyon is the best. I have been seeing her for over 25 years. Her bedside manner is warm, generous, gentle and she has a great sense of humor too. Every referral she has given me has been to another great doctor. I feel so lucky to have found a such a caring person to manage my health over the years.

Dr. Lyon is extremely professional and really cares about her patients. I can't belive it's been over 20 years since we met. She always listens and takes great care of me.

I am thrilled to share my positive experience with Dr. Valerie Lyon, my primary doctor. Dr. Lyon's caring demeanor and excellent bedside manner immediately put me at ease during appointments. She takes the time to listen attentively, ensuring a comfortable and open line of communication. Dr. Lyon's expertise is evident in her thorough explanations, and she goes the extra mile to address any questions or concerns I may have. Her commitment to patient education is both empowering and appreciated. What sets Dr. Lyon apart is her genuine concern for her patients' well-being. Her kindness and empathy make every interaction a positive and reassuring experience. I am grateful to have such a dedicated and compassionate primary care physician. In summary, I highly recommend Dr. Valerie Lyon to anyone seeking a caring and competent healthcare professional. Her exceptional bedside manner, commitment to patient comfort, and comprehensive care make her an invaluable asset to the medical field
