Dr LaPlant is an EXCELLENT DOCTOR. He listens to my concerns and helps me if I have any issues. He is smart, caring and kind. I am so happy he is my doctor. He explains everything in words I can understand. I would recommend him to my family and friends. He really is the GREATEST. [patient name removed]

Both my daughter and I were impressed by Roberta and by Dr. LaPlant. They were very friendly and extremely knowledgeable and gave us great and detailed information. I wish the people at the front desk were friendlier and that the facility's waiting rooms weren't so mobbed and had warmer decor.


Jan 16, 2025

I was confused as to whether radiation was appropriate or not. I think things will be clearer once I meet with the oncologist. Dr. La Plant was excellent, I know that the team needs to meet first.


Jan 16, 2025

Very satisfied


Jan 10, 2025

The doctor and nurse were very empathetic regarding my daily challenges and cheered on my progress. Very positive & uplifting.
