Dr. Joel Parker Laughlin, MD

Excellent Doctor

Dr Laughlin is an excellent Dr . After being diagnosed with Diabetes 7 or 8 years ago, he got me on the right track with my diet , my meds, and emphasizing the importance of exercise . Dr Laughlin saved my life . I'm very grateful .

He's a great doctor with a good bedside manner. He takes his time to listen your complaints before treating. I like the access to Followmyhealth to get test results.

He is been my dad's doctor for about 2 years or more. One thing I remember is that my dad constantly complaining about his foot. All he done was prescribed my dad a pain reliever with increasing dosage and diagnosed it as arthritis- sciatica . This year, my dad was diagnosed with deteriorating bone in his foot. I just don't like the fact that the foot that my dad's been complaining a long time ago has worsen and now he needed to undergo surgery. Currently, I am looking for different primary doctor for my Dad because another think that worries me is the amount of medication that has been prescribed with my Dad. The positive is that it is easy to make an appointment but I know for sure that waiting time is long because I was his driver for a couple of times.

Love Dr Laughlin!! He is a very caring dr!

I have been a patient of Dr. Laughlin's since coming to Alabama 5 years ago. He is one of the most compassionate doctors I've ever meant! Not only does he give me the time but will take extra time if I need it! I will always recommend him if someone ask me or if they are new to the area. I love and respect this doctor very much! He is also lucky to have one of the greatest staffs as well!

I love this doctor. He spent time listening, made me feel comfortable and was very nice and willing to work with me on the testing I wanted done. This is what every doctor should be to their patients. Thank you Dr. Laughlin!â?¥

Dr Lauglin is an amazing, caring doctor. He takes time with his patients and he really listens to what you are saying. **He is currently out on some type of family medical leave. I hope all turns out well for he and his family.. I really want him to come back because if he doesn't I'm afraid I may not find another doctor that is as wonderful as he.

Has a bad attitude, and does not write prescriptions for temporary on blood pressure medicine, until a new appointment can be made. That's just the first of many ridiculous things he doesn't do.
