He is an excellent doctor. Dr Laurent operated on me 2013 Feb. He had to fuse 4,5,&6 on my back. He did a great job considering my bones were breaking and he had to clean my bones up, some were on my Spinal cord and had to fix the tooth. He said I was very lucky to be walking into his office. 2nd Operation was 2025 June. He operated Cervical front of my neck Brasing the front bones and operated on my back same day fusing my neck bones from 2 to 7! I am doing very well and saw him today checking on X-rays and everything was good! Will see him again in 3 months! He is amazing and I have trust in all his work. He is amazing considering my age of 75 years old!

Waited 5 minutes and saw the nurse and then the doctor. Very efficient visit and he reviewed my scans before he met with me and provided excellent opinion and referral.

Great bedside manner, knows his profession extremely well and he tells you exactly what needs to happen .I could tell right away that he was telling me the truth because I was in sales for over 20 years and I learned how to read people. He's very well respected in his profession as well.

Dr Laurent, relieved my fears. And helped to get me rescheduled with Dr. Levy. Also gave me muscle relaxer that I believe is helping in addition to the Tylenol..
So grateful for him. I went in thinking I needed surgery and that I was going to be paralyzed.
