He was great during the bedside. The wait was too long after I got in the back. I took a nap that’s how long the wait was. No exaggeration. I also had questions after results came back and he hasn’t nor has his assistant answered me back thru the MyChart.

I can not express how amazing this doctor is. When the majority of the nursing staff sees this doctor that says volume. He is worth waiting to see him. He has saved many of my family members. If you have the opportunity to get him as your primary you would be a fool not to grab it.

I hate to say this, but Dr. Lacayo is the best. If you are tired of your doctor and want a doctor that really cares about you and your health. Dr. Lacayo is your man. I was referred to him by a strange. I am so glad I ran in that person. If you are not being cared for by Dr. Lacayo, you are not being cared for.

If you have a problem, Dr. Lacayo will not drop it. He follows up and sends you for necessary tests without delay. I feel fortunate to have him as my doctor.

I have been a patient of Dr Lacayo for a long time. He has always been there for me. His ability to get to the cause of a problem is amazing. Several years ago he saved my life simply because he was tenacious and persistent. He is one in a million. Thank you.

He was able to diagnose two situations for me and my family that other doctors did not diagnose. One doctor even asked, how did he find this problem? He will follow up with you and make sure you are doing well.

He will spend as much time as needed and will get to the bottom of any illness. he is a Dr. House without the attitude.
