Lawrence is an excellent provider! He is one of the most caring, genuine providers I have seen. He takes pride in his patients and providing the care they need. Thank you!
I could not be more pleased with the care I received from this provider. He was very thorough, took the time to explain everything and addressed all of my concerns. I often avoid going to doctors and my entire experience was the best I have had. I was treated with compassion and felt completely comfortable. I will not hesitate to trust this provider with my care and I am so thankful for quality care closer to home.
He is a great listener, very knowledgeable about any condition or question I bring up, is truly interested in my health and happiness. Know drug uses and interactions if a problem or are benificial. Best doctor I have ever had.
Very good
He was incredibly thorough and quick. Typically, I think quick isn’t that great when you’re with doctors, but he was throwing like so it made it great.
Great service
First time seeing Lawrence he was friendly and respectful took the time to listen and asked appropriate questions regarding why he was seeing me today I didn’t feel rushed which is always a plus he asked several times if I needed any thing else reviewed or my meds refilled
Listens to patients concerns
I ask for antibiotics shot, he didn’t put it in order. Nurse given shot said only steroid shot no antibiotics. He was already with another patient. So I had to wait next day for pills. I know he not who I normally see
Awesome personality, listens to his patients great guy
