    In the beginning of my career Dr La was amazing, but this last visit when I was complaining about my foot pain he was so rude and dismissive and blew me off and threw me off to an orthopedic surgeon and said you need surgery and pain management. When the MRI showed arthritis and fluid in my foot. And who says “I don’t know why you’re feeling pain in your foot?!” Like I’m making it up! I complained to my insurance and my primary dr. I have pictures of what my foot looks like after walking/working out and for him to imply I’m making it up is rude. I would recommend him to anyone I know. I should have known not to go to him because someone I know had the same run in with him.
