Patricia A Labaire, MD

Dr. Labaire saved the life of our now 8 week old son. He was born with a heart murmur which lead to the diagnosis of a much more serious heart issue. He has now had 3 heart surgeries to repair his heart. When my wife gave birth, she was the only one at the time. We literally had 10 Drs and nurses in our room simply because there was nothing else going on. None of them, not a single one heard the murmur. All of ultrasounds, and nothing was heard. Dr. Labaire was the doctor on call that day. She came for his checkup about 4 hrs after birth, and she heard the murmur. Our son ultimately needed surgery to save him form brain damage, organ damage, and his life and was whisked off to Childrens in Boston. Now our entire family goes to her. Its difficult to thank someone for saving the life of your child. There is nothing in this world I could give or say that could show that. So I came here to spread the word. There are many doctors out there to choose from. Dr. Labaire listens, cares, pays very close attention to detail, and truly is one of the best. Thank you again Dr. Labaire

My son was born with a previously unknown heart condition. Dr. Labaire was the only one to hear his heart condition and about 15 people listened to my son's heart the day he was born... My son ended up needing 2 heart surgeries before he was 10 days old... If Dr. Labaire hadn't heard his murmur, my son would have gotten extremely sick and could have died...

Dr. LaBaire has been my primary care physician for about nine years and I could not ask for a better doctor. She calls you herself with results from test so if you have questions she can answer them right away. I have never had to wait more than a few minutes to be brought into the exam room and don't have to wait long for her to come in. She explains everything so you can understand and spends the time you need to understand what she is telling you. She has a lab on site so you can have blood drawn right there which saves a trip to the hospital. When I called her office a few weeks ago with symptoms of a cold I was seen that day and that is usually what happens, if she cannot see you that day they defenitely see you the next day. I have nothing but good things to say about Dr. LaBaire and appreciate her more than words can say.

My elderly father had been going to another physician for years - long waits to be seen, then have examined, and his concerns were brushed off by the other doctor as "It's because your older" Common issues with elderly.. Well, when my father was almost dead, couldn't walk etc. Dr. Labaire examined him, had tests taken - was severely dehydrated and very anemic. In no time he was much better - however, she also diagnosed that he had an aortic aneurysm and multiple myeloma. We always wonder if he had gone to Dr. Labaire sooner, what would have happened! She did my Dad very well overall. AND my mother.

Bad at diagnostics or treating anything but the sniffles. However, she will refer to specialists. Office is quiet, easy to get appointment, But many times, useless to even see her as she isn't much help beyond giving you approval for a referral.
