Dr. L and his staff was caring and kind as always. I forgot to ask Dr. L a coupleQuestions and he actually came back out and answered them. So thankful. He is an amazing Dr and I am lucky to have an arm to type this with.

Dr. Lawrenz is great I truly would recommend him to everyone. But hopefully never will need to because Cancer is not something I wish on anyone. He is always smiling, very informative and talks to you while including family members also. He saw my list of questions and was ready to answer any concerns and to explain what was now going on with my cancer leg. He truly cares about his patients and their outcomes.
