I took my mom with dementia to see Dr. Laptalo for a check up. Despite the limited input from us, he very patiently asked the right questions in a kind, gentle manner and was able to provide care for my mom. Highly professional.

About Me

Care Philosophy
  • My goal is to utilize all the resources available to me to treat the cancer and to put it into remission. I realize that there is a fine balance between treatment of the cancer and a patient's quality of life, so I listen to my patients needs and value their input. My greatest joy is having a patient who is there to watch their children grow or celebrates another birthday or anniversary.
