I suffered for two years with UC under the care of another doctor, but Dr. Lawlor had me feeling better in a few months. I have been in remission for a year now

Dr Lawlor restores my quality of life. After one visit he prescribed the right medication to get me back on track. This was after years of suffering from symptoms, multiple tests, and different meds that didn’t work. He takes his time, is very thorough, and patiently answers all questions.

Went to Dr. Lawlor complaining of pain in my side, wound up being convinced to do an unnecessary procedure (colonoscopy and endoscopy) left with unnecessary medical bills and still suffering the same pain. 1 and 1/2 year later while in the ER, I learned I had kidney stones. Dr. Lawlor even attempted to prescribe me antidepressants. I wasn't depressed or in need of a colonoscopy. I had kidney stones and a cyst in my kidneys which he failed to properly diagnose. This guy is the worst.

Doctor forgot to send the prescription to the pharmacy. As the result, patient got worse. Called his office about 4 times to get the prescription send to the pharmacy and nothing. Very irresponsible!

I don't know if he is a good doctor or not, but what I can tell you is that the office didn't care at all about you, I have to call numerous times Everytime I want to schedule an appointment or to receive refills of medication untill I get it. Then waiting to in his office is a DISASTER! You could wait there over 3 hours easily before seeing the doctor. So I don't know what's worse IBD or ...
