Most of the time doctors just want to come in diagnose you and walk out so they can see someone else and make more money. I had to wait a little while (like 15 minutes) once I got in the room, but when he came in there with me I realized it was because he spends so much time with his patients. He is so helpful and takes his time in explaining to you how you will feel once he starts treating you, and exactly what is wrong with you. I just had gotten so tired of all doctors not caring about my sickness or explaining to me why or how it is happening. He finally restored my faith that some doctors do this because they want to help people and make a difference in the world.

I am 59 years old, and experiencing the normal aging process of sagging jowl, chin area & nose. I had gone for consultation's, to 3 plastic surgeons, as well as the well-known "Lifestyle Lift" folks. Every Doctor told me I needed a face lift, chin lift, liposuction of excess, sagging chin fat, etc. etc. The Lifestyle Lift seemed like the best choice at the time but because I take a blood thinner I was excluded from the procedure. Next, I saw an ad for Doctor's Medical Center and Laser treatments for signs of aging. I called and went in for a consult. Dr. Laurusonis explained every possible detail about various Laser treatments available, as well as other treatment options. He and his staff answered all my many questions. Two weeks later I decided that I didn't want to be cut and Laser was the choice for me. After two treatsments on my sagging neck, chin and "jowl" area. I am so very happy with the results...and I did not need surgery! Thank you Dr. Laurusonis & Staff you were great!

My advise is to stay very far away from this practice. Dr. Laurusonis came across as very unprofessional and at times we felt as he was yelling. I can understand how children would be terrified of him. He diagnosed my wife as having a broken leg and told her to stay in an air cast for 6 weeks. Three days later two other doctor could find no indication of a fracture, only a very minor sprain. She was almost completely recovered within less than a week.

Nobody was in the waiting area as is allways when I go to this Docters Medical Center! The wait in the waiting room with nobody there is usually 30 minutes. When I reach the exam room it usually is 30 minutes to an hour or more. Then the following Dr. Laurusonis does not pay attention to what you are are telling him pertaining to your problem/situation. As he walked out in the middle of the explaination/ailment, I have had for the past three years. I Have also been trying to get a medicaid refferal from this very same docter for 5 months now to get an appointment with a specialist, But he blatently told me he would not make a call to the docters office, So I have to wait for a Medicaid refferal to be seen, because he does not listen or comunicate well enough to write the refferral out correctly, So I can get the appointment with the other docter. A Simple two line, 1 pg. paperwork & refferals are to complicated for this office or maybe it's Insurance discrimination. Not easy to talk to
