Review for Dr. Lackey

Excellent doctor! I've been going to him as long as he's been practicing. 28 years? Maybe. And even though now I live in Lafayette, I still journey to Baton Rouge to see him. He's that good! And my problems are many, so that's why I have to keep coming back! Occupational hazard . . .

Review for Dr. Panepinto

First time visit to this facility and doctor and was impressed from office staff to the doctors assistant to the x-ray tech to the doctor. There were no glitches to mention, just professional service from all. Since he’s a surgeon, I expected a push towards surgery but no such thing happened....
