I have been seeing Dr. Lagrone since 2000. Prior to that I had seen all kind of doctors who could not figure out what was wrong with me. I had gone from an active full-time employee, part-time college student, working out at the Y 3/4 days a week. Then I started to get fatigued, achy, no energy. Other doctors ran all kinds of tests and there was no diagnosis. I saw Dr.Lagrone and for the first time I had hope. There was a name to what I had - fibromyalgia. It's not an easy illness to treat. Each patient is different. He has taken the time to keep me informed of new treatments and we have finally come up with a good mix of drugs that help me manage. Yes, it's true that he has a lot of meds in his arsenal and dispenses them accordingly but rheumatological diseases aren't cured. They're managed. And drugs are part of that along with physical therapy, lifestyle changes, etc which He also addresses. And he does all of this while showing a lot of compassion and dignity to this patient.

I completely disagree with the last statement posted. Dr LaGrone and his NP are the most knowledgeable physician/np that I have come to know. Too bad some people just don't like to hear they have nothing wrong with them. Some need to seek psychiatric care rather than medical care. They may be better able to diagnosis you.

The comments that were negative about Dr. Lagrone were acurate including about the NP. If your disease is not obivious, which can happen he will brush you off and give you the most popular drug. As a pre med student, its astounding how those that have the authority and knowledge can lead those astray. After gettin my medication from Dr. Lagrone, I had went into the e.r complaining about stomach pain. Come to find out my liver enzymes where elevated, when i spoke to Dr. Lagrone he took me off the only medicine he hadnt prescribe. 3 wks later his NP told me they had reviewed my file and saw nothing. It was only God, that gave me the feeling something wasnt right. So i checked all of the medicines he gave. Astoundingly, every medication he gave me attackes my liver. If that doesnt tell you anything nothing will. He is like so many physicians, out to get paid and rob the american pple instead of beig honest. He has no clue nor does his NP.

After two years of being passed around from doctor to doctor, I was referred to Dr. Lagrone. At my first appointment, he was able to ,ale a diagnosis and begin treatment for something much more minor than the things I had been led to believe were causing my troubles. He spent almost an hour talking to me and my husband and made himself available to both of us should we have questions or concerns later down the road. I left feeling a great bit of relief and knowing I have a knowledgable doctor who is on my side! I would recommend him to anyone!

Dr Lagrone is wonderful. He is very knowledgable and takes time to explain everything to you. I could not think more of him.

He could not figure out which autoimmune disorder I have. He lets his male NP see many of his patients. The NP doesn't have much a knowledge base in rheumatology.

I get the feeling that the doctor doesn't rally have time to see me when I visit. I make an appointment and I have an illness, but it is as if he is preoccupied with some other issue.
