Review for Dr. Lawrence

Dr. Lawrence and his team were absolutely professional, thorough and personable. My experience and results were everything I had hoped for with my knee replacements. I am looking forward to being able to enjoy the pain free knees that I've been dreaming about for a long time.

Review for Dr. Lawrence

So thankful to have had Doctor Lawrence do both knee replacements in 2023. It has changed my life dramatically & it is amazing to have my quality of life back. I have been very active my entire life and I am now able to do pretty much anything again. He is the BEST!
