Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

The most professional, talented, compassionate and caring doctor I have met in a long time. I had an accident and needed immediate stitches on my face. He met me at his office straight from the hospital and was nothing short of amazing. He made a horrible situation better. Keep in mind I have never before used him he had performed a surgery on my son and without any hesitation he took care of me. I felt like family even the office staff was great.

I am having a horrible experience with his staff. I had emergency surgery i the E.R after I cut my arm. He was the surgeon on staff that day. I was supposed to have a follow up with him that was necessary and required, but its been impossible to get an appt IF i don't pay my surgery bill first $$$. Don't doctors have the responsibility to care for their patients? I explained I had no insurance and the follow up was required but they would NOT allow the doctor to see me if I didn't pay the bill first. RIDICULOUS. I tried for 2 days until Denisse from billing rudely let me know they couldn't help me and I had to go to another doctor.

Dr. Laqua has a genuine, sincere nature uncommon to most people in general and more specifically, the medical field. He is gentle, calm, confident, precise, efficient and most of all, receptive. I ask a lot of questions and he never once got impatient. I have been his patient for 8 years. He goes out of his way to fit me in even when I inconvenience him last minute. He strives to get whatever he is working on perfect! He has worked on a scar I have on the side of my head a few times in order to get it perfect and it is now! He is a good man and even better doctor! He’s gracious and respects your time. A true gentleman and professional! I trust him. The ladies at the desk are lovely too. Hardly ever a wait.

Dr. Lacqua was eager and willing to help from the moment he arrived in the room. He was able to make me feel comfortable in regard to having a breast reduction. He was very informative on past procedures and statistics regarding the surgery.

Dr Lacqua performed surgery on my hand and couldn't have been more professional throughout the process. He clearly explained my options, recovery time and met with me several time after the operation. It was really reassuring having Dr Lacqua during the whole experience.

I've been coming to Dr. Michael Lacqua for years now and I can't speak highly enough of him. He is truly amazing at what he does, and always takes time to listen to my concerns and explain things thoroughly. I have never felt rushed by him, and my experience has always been a positive one. The staff is also very kind and accomodating. They take care of everything in a seamless manner.
