    An excellent doctor, with innovative solutions... who actually cares about his patients

    I initially saw a traditional spinal surgeon who diagnosed the chronic back pain I was experiencing as minior disc degeneration and arthritis; the surgeons solution was to "Live with the pain, you may get used to it." After several months of "getting used to it" the pain never subsided. I researched alternative solutions and came across Dr. Lavallee's sports physician clinic. After a VERY detailed consultation where Dr. Lavallee reviewed my imaging and xrays he concluded that the best option would be to try PRP injections in my facet joints, a spot he suspected was the cause of most of my pain. Desperate for relief, I availed myself to Dr. Lavalle's proposed plan of attack. To verify his suspicions about my back pain, he first performed a series of diagnostic injections to determine if the facets were, in fact, the source of my pain - indeed they were. I made two total visits for PRP treatment and within weeks my back pain was 100% gone.

    Not only does Dr LaVallee listen he hears!!!

    I’ve had multiple PRP treatments and A stem cell treatment with Dr LaVallee. It would be hard to find someone more caring, thoughtful and concerned about who I am and my quality of life.

    Highly Recommended

    Dr. Lavallee provided the most comprehensive and informative medical evaluation and treatment that I've experienced anywhere. I have been living with two herniated discs for the last seven years, and been through the standard treatments issued by my PCP, urgent care facilities, and hospitals. Dr. Lavallee taught me a lot about my condition, the medical community's response to my condition, and helped me heal in what I hope (and believe will be) a more permanent way. I would recommend anyone see Dr. Lavallee if they have an injury similar to mine.

    Healing well from past visits and have confidence for future visits!

    I have had PRP injections in my left hamstring insertion area for a chronic (and old) ham injury. PRP is the one method that finally worked. I am currently having carpal tunnel treated in both wrists. The night of the first injection, I no longer felt the pain in the treated hand. This pain would interrupt my sleep. What a blessing it is to not being woken by pain! Looking forward to similar results in the other wrist/hand.

    Doctor Lavallee is the very best!

    Both my husband and I are patients of Doctor Lavallee and we can't say enough about the care we receive from him. He listens to our concerns, provides options so we can make the best informed decisions. He always spends time making sure you are well taken care of. You clearly feel that he cares and wants the best for you. He is the very, very best and we highly recommend him.

    Great - Dr. LaVallee has excellent clinical skills.

    I am very happy with my decision to see Dr. LaVallee for my regenerative medicine treatments. He never appears to be rushed and always spends ample time with me explaining my medical issues and the best way to treat those issues. His knowledge and clinical skills are excellent and I have full confidence in his abilities to assist me.

    Outstanding orthopedic care - no surgery!

    I have been seeing Dr. Lavallee for over a year. I had seen "traditional" Orthopedic Doctors who basically said my knee injury could not be treated. Dr. Lavallee reviewed my case, and provided a progressive path of care that has greatly improved my knee issue and I am participating in activities a year later which I didn't even think of pursuing 8 months ago. Dr. Lavallee's explanations are clear, concise and he offers options that I can evaluate, and none include surgery! I highly recommend Dr. Lavallee and the practice if you are looking to improve your general orthopedic health using regenerative medicine.

    Best Doc Ever

    Dr. Lavallee ALWAYS manages to find the right spot to treat. I'm never disappointed in his ability to listen to my descriptions of pain and distill it down to a treatment plan that WORKS. I consider this to be my most cost effective treatment for those uncomfortable things that pop up due to aging, and unfortunate events (like stepping into a hole). Save yourself. Try this first.

    Very Helpful, Listening Physician

    Dr. Lavallee addressed my shoulder pain issues very quickly. Within a short period of time, my chronic shoulder pain decreased significantly. I recommend Dr. Lavallee to help you find the Root Cause of your Body Pain.

    Amazing doctor, amazing bed side manner!

    I am a self employed hair stylist and when I injured my arm, I saw the possible ending of my career flash in front of my eyes. I was scared, I had no idea what was ahead and I knew I needed to see the best of the best. That's when I called Dr. Lavallee. He was patient, kind, thorough and knew exactly what we needed to do. We had a plan and followed it. I am happy to say I am back to work and will see this injury through with him. I trust him 100%. Thank you, Dr. Lavallee for taking such great care of me.

    Great compassionate Doctor

    Dr. Lavallee genuinely takes the time to review, and thoroughly decide the treatment modality. PRP was decided is best suitable for my shoulder labrum and partial supraspinatus tear. Dr. Lavallee prepares the PRP so the most optimal PRP is attained to deliver a successful outcome.

    No Hip Surgery For Me!

    I was told I needed a full hip replacement last summer from an orthopedic surgeon. I decided to go the stem cell route instead. I am so glad I did. It is now one year since my treatment with Dr. Lavallee and I am back to going to they gym and even golfing twice a week 18 holes. I am so glad I did this treatment. I would suggest it. I have to say, I do work at it and make sure I keep my body moving because I want it to stay this way. Dr. Lavallee and his staff are wonderful. I love how they are all up on the newest developments in this area. Getting the booster shot one year later and all is well.

    Thoughtful, caring expertise

    I was referred to Dr. Lavallee with early onset arthritis in both knees. Dr. Lavallee took a measured approach to my treatment, carefully listening to my history and what I was experiencing before coming up with a treatment plan that was right for me. He never rushes and always asks about my situation and how my condition is impacting my lifestyle. So thoughtful...

    Well explained and carried out. Very professional!

    Dr. Lavallee is an excellent physician who explains the process thoroughly and does the procedure accurately. My lower back pain after the first and second sessions was greatly diminished. One more session to go. Highly recommend this to anyone in pain! Staff also is knowledgeable and caring.

    This has been amazing for my shoulder

    Dr Lavallee has been great to work with. I had a torn labrum in the shoulder and 3 partial rotator tears and I couldn't do anything because of pain. Now I can lift weights, play high level tennis, and sleep on my shoulder. I am so glad I didn't have rotator cuff surgery.

    Doctor Lavallee is the very best.

    I can't say enough about my experience with Doctor Lavallee and his staff. I would give him a 10 if I could. His patient care is exceptional. I had some concerns about continuing with procedures, even though I had confidence in him and and the procedures, I wasn't sure it was working for me. Doctor Lavallee took much time with me on more than one occasion, explaining, informing and really putting my mind at ease. It really made all the difference for me. I have never experienced this kind of patient care from any doctor. He is the very, very best. His staff follow his example. I wouldn't think of going anywhere else and would highly recommend him.
