Dr. Lackey attended Georgetown College for his undergraduate degree before earning his medical degree at the West Virginia School of Osteopathic Medicine. His internship was at Spartanburg Regional Medical Center while his second year of surgical residency was completed at Vanderbilt. Dr. Lackey finished his training at the University of Florida, Jacksonville.

He began his practice in Sebring, Florida, nearly seventeen years ago after settling in the area due to its numerous lakes that reminded him of his Kentucky childhood. At Florida Lakes Surgical, Dr. Lackey provides compassionate care and laser focus on patient health.

Dr. Lackey boasts the only VenaSeal™ and Varithena teaching facility in Central Florida. When not performing surgeries and vein treatments, he can be found on the tennis courts as President of the Highlands County Tennis Association, coaching varsity girls’ soccer and varsity boys’ tennis teams, or just relaxing with his wife and six children.
