His notes didn't match what I said at all. His diagnosis was incomplete. I had to get MRI report to learn what had happened. He acted like "how can I leave this appointment with the least number of words said". I ended up doing major damage to my knee and will probably need surgery now! BEWARE...

Doctor took the time to explain symptoms and gave good advice for future care. The staff had their stuff together and down to the point. Great visit and would recommend to a friend or family member.

I got hurt at work. Dr LaSalle was not only rude to workmans comp but also my lawyer. We had a meeting setup on my status and he walked out. I wait about 2 hours after my appointment time to be seen even when they are not bush. Spends about 5 minutes with patient.

Two people had operated on me prior to Dr. Lassalle, neither one helped my problem. One made it worse. I am almost as good as I was before the surgery and anticipate to be 100% soon.

This doctor only took about 5 minutes with my husband and then proceeded to make a diagnosis. He was not even going to schedule an MRI to to determin what had caused my husband's injury.
