Several times I've described symptoms to him and he'll make a preliminary diagnosis, which is always confirmed by tests. He asked my husband and me to come into his office today, because my husband had not visited him in a while. My husband is elderly, and the doctor was concerned about his condition and whether he was taking the medication that was prescribed. This shows how much concern he has for his patients. I really shouldn't rave so much about him. His waiting room is always packed and is liable to be more so by anyone reading this.

During my first (and only) consultation with Dr. Laurence S. Lorefice, I experienced what I believe…read moreto be a clear violation of my HIPAA rights. Dr. Lorefice also belittled and gaslighted me and was condescending, invalidating, and dismissive, often adopting a tone more appropriate for a therapist, even though he is not one. It was the most vile appointment I've ever had with a psychiatrist. I began advocating for myself in response to his condescending and invalidating tone, but the consultation still took a troubling turn toward the end. In what I believed to be a confidential medical setting, I disclosed that I live in an emotionally abusive household. Despite the sensitive nature of this information, Dr. Lorefice asked if he could ask my mother (who drove me only because I am recovering from stomach surgery and could not drive at the moment) a few questions after asking me some. I agreed, assuming he intended to ask general health questions or discuss logistics. However, once she entered the room, he proceeded to tell my mom, in front of me, that I said that there was emotional abuse happening at home as well as his personal opinions of my situation after asking her questions about me. I was shocked and deeply distressed by this disclosure, which left me feeling exposed and unsafe in both the appointment and my home environment. This disclosure was not only a breach of my confidentiality and HIPAA protections, but also an action that could have seriously endangered my emotional and physical safety at home. As an adult (24 years old), my health information is protected under the HIPAA, which prohibits covered entities from disclosing protected health information (PHI) without explicit, informed consent. This incident has led me to question how many other patients may have been placed in similarly unsafe situations by Dr. Lorefice's actions. I find this conduct to be deeply inappropriate and dangerous, and I believe this review is important to warn people that he is not professional and was in fact harmful to me.

His calm demeanor and his profound inner peacefulness permeates his entire being and spills over into the whole atmosphere of his state of the art offices in downtown westport. He is so intune with people on so many different levels and it's very sublte and unassuming. He is a role model for so many of the children who frequent his offices. He models the "right relationship" with correct "boundaries" during the sessions and this kind and gentle way affects and ripples into all other outside toxic relationships that his clients and patients come to him in depseration and crisis to "fix". He is a strengthener of the positive aspects of a person rather than an exposer of the weak areas of a person. I have seen the results of this in many of the clients he treats. I have met with people who have referred to themselves as therapists, ministers, pastors, and counselors. Not one of them has had the "gift" of compassion and care that Nicholas has. Instead their reviews would all get a minus 5 stars. Possibly Nicholas is just a nice person who genuinely loves people and helping them get stronger in their inner life to face the hassles of everyday life...and this in itself makes the others look weak and inefficient. I strongly encourage people to step out of their pain and uncertainty and make an appointment with Nicholas, who can truly help.
