I have been going to dr lafazia for years and I love having him as my primary... There are a few issues that I would say are negatives. First he does sometimes over book and you will sit there. As someone else mentioned he does tend to ramble about himself and love life on occasion. He isn't a pill pusher as far as dangerous meds are concerned. He is very personable and I get along great with him and that means a lot to me personally. The biggest problem I have is with his secretaries! They are extremely dismissive, don't return phone calls and constantly mess up things! Not to mention that they hardly answer when u call.. Either u get voice mail cause there on the line talking or they won't pick up. Forget about leaving a message 75% of the time you won't get a call back. If her got better help things could be improve a lot. As far as knowledge he is pretty good. He will help you out if your in a bind and that to me says a lot. Great doctor!

I CAN'T BELIEVE SOMEONE WOULD RECOMMEND ANYONE HERE ENLESS YOU NEED MEDS BECAUSE THEY ONES THAT DON'T NO WHAT'S GOING ON. AND IF HE IS SO KNOWLEDGEABLE WHY DID HE NEED TO TAKE SO MY TEST X-RAYS THEN CATS ON THE SAME AREA... HELLO FOR THE INSURANCE MONEY NOT ME, BECAUSE I NEEDED A OPERATION AFTER LEAVING HIS OFFICE I WAS TOLD TO SUCK IT UP. BAD CHOICE UNLESS YOU NEED MEDICATION HILL GIVE IT TO YOU I HEARD THAT IN EVERY ROOM

I am a fairly new patient of Dr.Lafazia but I feel very comfortable around him. I had some serious backpains and he was able to straighten me right out..And he is not a pill pusher like I read before, he was careful not to give me anything harmful. Great guy, a real Rhode Islander!

I WENT TO DR. LAFAZIA AFTER YEARS OF ANOTHER FAMILY DR. I WAS TAKING 9 PRES. A DAY AND FEELING LOUSY. AFTER COMPLETE CHECK UP I TAKE 3 PRES. AND FEEL LIKE A NEW PERSON. I HAVE HAD TO WAIT ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS BUT THAT IS BECAUSE HE DOES SEE PEOPLE WHO ARE SICK WHEN THEY ARE SICK.........NOT 2 WEEKS LATER. HE ALSO WILL CALL WHEN THEIR IS A PROBLEM AFTER BLOOD WORK. I WOULD RECOMMEND HIM TO ANYONE. VERY SATISFIED.

One of the very few doctors that will see you the same day that you call. You may have to wait a long time but at least you can get treatment when you are actually sick, rather than in 2 weeks like other primary care doctors. This is a VERY busy office and although the staff seems overworked they try their best to be friendly and helpful.

Frank is a veryknowledgable Doc. Ewas always right on w/ my diagnosis. The office is run poorly though. I'm not sure if they don't know what they are doing or don't care. It is what it is attitude. I had an 8:30 and didn't see him till 11:30 ... of course my BP is high. Though it might be a fluke but it happened several other times. Finally had enough and got another doc. I don't wait 10 min now. But he's no Frank. I would have stayed but I don't have that kind of time to wait.
