Dr. Lapuente provided excellent care and was very kind! He cared about my medical history and helping me get better!
Great doctor who put me right at ease and answered all my questions. My usual doctor retires at the end of the year so I will definitely see Dr. Lapuente after that.
Great man great experiance
Excellent doctor and the group that works with him, always full of kindness, make you feel like family.
Front desk staff Dr. Lapuente explained our diagnosis (me myself and my 3 kidddos) in detailed and answered all my questions without rushing.
