Report
Sometimes you don't want a doctor to throw prescription medicine at you for every little symptom you have. Dr. LaRosa is helping me reverse a condition with some activity and nutritional changes to the point where my PCP is thinking about taking me off the medications he's perscribed. I'm thankful Dr. L. Looked at me as a person and not a symptom and helped me fix the issue instead of "managing" it.

Report
My children have had several health issues. Ranging from high lead levels to eczema issues. One of my daughters was not gaining weight. She discovered my daughter was not digesting the fat in her food. With in a few months she was gaining weight again. Time and time again she has helped my children overcome health issues and keep them healthy. We don't know what we would do without her. She answers medical questions quickly and is always helpful and courteous.
