Always a great experience when you start your visit with professional, caring, extremely friendly and courteous staff. Dr. Kacmar was very attentive, prompt, knowledgeable and hands on. He didnt rush through the process and spent time needed with me. Kudos to you and your staff!

I have trusted Dr. Kacmar for over 20 years. It started with a nagging college cheerleading injury which had gone from pain to partial paralysis of my left arm in my early 30's. He diagnosed and resolved it. He is a problem solver looking for a root cause, not just attacking symptoms, and he has demonstrated this over 2 decades with me as well as my wife and both of our children, now in their 20's.
So just in our family he has covered a gamut of issues all with the same thoughtful, caring approach. Do note this does mean he takes more time with you to really sort things out. If you are an impatient

After many years of exceptional care provided by Dr Lawrence T Kacmar the incompetence of the clinic staff and manager caused me to be kicked out by phone from Dr Kacmar. No consideration for the 20 years of patronage and the oath doctor made to be doctor.
