Dr. Stephen Elliott Lapinel, MD

Dr. Lapinel was very professional, asked and LISTENED to my answers!!!! His office was overly crowded, but I guess that's just the way it is these days. Recommend him unconditionally.

I was told not to long ago, beware of Doctors with great personalities,usually it's a mask to cover incompetance. This I found out first hand during a most recent hospitalization for a loved one in a near by hospital that Dr Lapinel is employed. Yes he was the attending physician. My farther was transported to this hosp. by ambulance, he is an 81 yr. old dabeteic.with a number of health issues. Let me cut to the chase. While medicating and hydrating my dad they left him so full of fluids he can barely walk. We should have been able to stay an add'l day to clear up the problem of the fluid builed up. I was also told a misdiagnosis. Just before my dad was discharged, being left to take care of yet another health issue that I pray will be remedied. In the future I will go to another hosp to avoid any more future problems. The health "care" profession is getting Pretty scarie, Thank God there is a God These so called DRs need to be told that they are just a band aid and not the solution… and not GODS here on earth.
