Muy bien

There was no hands on checking or manipulation of the hip to see/feel what was going on to cause the pain. Just two pressure touches to see if that hurt.

Waited in the room over half an hour, waiting for the doctor.

one of the nicest physician's I have ever encountered

04/21/2024

Slipped on ice and broke my [body parts]. There was talk of sending me to a more metro area to have the surgery needed. Although a very complex repair, Dr Lara was able to put me back together again. I couldn't be more pleased. Highly recommend!

Dr. Lara is kind and listens with the intent to understand. He did exceptional work on both my hip replacements. I would definitely want Dr Lara to do other joint replacement surgeries, if needed.

02/27/2024

Dr. Lara was very friendly, east to talk to never seemed rushed and treated me with respect. He answered all my concerns and questions. He explained the x-ray results, what they meant about my prognosis very well. He was very encouraging.

Dr Lara took his time when speaking with me, I didn't feel rushed and felt he cared

01/24/2024

I mistakenly clicked on rating this visit a 6. I meant an 8 and that is because it was the second time I had to wait an hour for the doctor to appear!!

01/23/2024

Did have a very long wait time
