I moved and returned and found out this Doc sold her practice. Best Doc ive ever had!. Thorough, kind, great listener, patient and really smart. She use to do house calls on my mom before she died. Office staff was friendly, efficient and fun. This doc helped me through some pretty scary medical stuff when no one else could or seemed0k to want to.

I read some of the negative comments on this website; wow, if a patient wants revenge they can use a web site to trash a doctor. I've been a patient with this doc for 12 years, so are many of my friends and family. This doc is fantastic, caring, thorough, very smart and has a great sense of humor. She has even done house calls and hospitalized my mother twice, with great results. I do remember being in the office when a drunk (scarey) patient came in and was rude and demanding, then threatened the office clerk. They had to call the police. So after 12 years of seeing this Doc, the great office and care of at least twenty people I know, the neg comments are just someone who didn't get what they wanted. Even other docs I see who know her think very highly of her care, office and expertise.

After making me wait for 45 minutes, Dr. Lanier spent a whole 5 minutes with me. I found her to be cold, arrogant, and very uncaring. Worst doctor i have encountered in my life!!
