Dr. Lawrence may be young but he is full of wisdom. When I started seeing him I was at the end of…read moremy rope, uncomfortable and dissatisfied with my health. I thought I was doing everything right, but my symptoms persisted and western medicine gave me nothing but dead ends and drugs.. neither of which were helpful to me. After my first visit with Dr. Lawrence, I knew he would be the one to help me not only alleviate my symptoms but discover and tackle the root cause of my issues. Part of what makes Dr. Lawrence special is that he is a wonderful counselor. He challenges me to answer my own questions which boosts my autonomy and self efficacy but always steps in with his expertise when appropriate. Dr. Lawrence has helped me appreciate the process of healing. I have learned so much from him and as a bonus, I feel better than I've ever felt. Thank you Dr. Lawrence!

Dr Derek is the most informing, thoughtful, responsible doctor.

He's been there in the ways I WANT a provider to show up: tools in hand, extensive knowledge, and listening for what I want in the process. I recommend him HIGHLY. There's usually a long wait to get a new appointment - and I say - WAIT if you can.

Very personable and actually listens to patient concerns. A talent not favored by many doctors!read more

I wanted to share my experience in case it helps others…read more I was referred by a friend who also invited me to a cosmetic event that was scheduled for later in the month. I wanted to look more refreshed for another event I had planned earlier in the week and so I decided to go in early for botox. I initially had a positive first impression of this office. The doctor is a family physician who also offers cosmetic treatments like Botox and lasers. I came in specifically for Botox, and although he recommended more units than I usually receive for my crow's feet area, I agreed, trusting his judgment and hoping for good results. He even asked me to return in two weeks for a follow-up touch-up. Unfortunately, within days, I noticed no improvement at all in my crow's feet. I tried calling the office multiple times and received no response. I eventually went in person to have him evaluate the results. When I showed him the issue, he told me "not to smile so hard," which was surprising especially since during my appointment, the medical assistant had encouraged me to smile very hard for photos. At my two-week follow-up, I was expecting a touch-up as discussed. Instead, he recommended doubling the amount of Botox, and when I asked if I would be charged again, he said yes. This was concerning, as I have never needed that much product before, and my regular provider achieves effective results at a much lower cost. While he attempted to justify this with scientific explanations, my experience suggested that technique and anatomical precision, both critical in Botox, may have been lacking, rather than the amount used. What was most disappointing was that after this entire experience, there was no effort to resolve the issue or stand behind the results. Instead, I immediately received a reminder text invitation to a cosmetic event promoting additional services and products. Given the outcome of my treatment, this felt dismissive and a lack of professionalism and patient care. Overall, I left feeling disappointed with the results, communication, and handling of concerns. I would not recommend this doctor, especially for cosmetic procedures where experience, technique, and ethical standards are essential.
