    How was your appointment with Dr. Laratta?

    Feb 14, 2023
    I had my first appointment with Dr. Laratta recently and I was very favorably impressed for a couple of reasons. First, Dr. Laratta seemed to very quickly understand my condition through insightful questions. He was able to get the x-rays he needed the same day. Because of the level of pain I had, his assistant went the extra mile to arrange for important additional imaging (MRI & CT scan) the same week. I'm looking forward to my follow-up appointment.
