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.

As referred to in other reviews, I too found Laroche completely lacking in communication skills, any compassion or one iota of caring, and substance

Dr. LaRoche has always been helpful and compassionate. It seems the negative reviews are just from people that want to complain or didn't like that they weren't babied I the ER.

Not much to work with as she immediately passed of the situation as anxiety. Listen, it's an ER, I know, life saving space, but if the patient feels like it's an actual emergency try to take care of them. They're paying you good money. One of the least attentive ER docs I've seen (even if you count the ones on TV). But hey that may be my anxiety.

Anxious per doc in Conroe, TX – Aug 13, 2017
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Laroche?
Dr. Laroche is unprofessional and has no communication skills and no explanation. My wife came with severe abdominal cramp, diarrhea, and nausea. Routine admission work up was done. Blood work, urine collection"suspected urinary tract infection", IV fluid bolus for "suspected dehydration" from earlier diarrhea. After blood work, she came in and said, "All your labs came out normal. Will consult GI and they may want to do colonoscopy." When asked for GI Panel, she said it was not necessary!

I was admitted for a painful diverticulitis of Intestine with abscess without bleeding, the doctor was very attentive and helpful to ease my and pain and ease my discomfort. Never the less San luke's with its staff did a great job also, from admin to nursing staff. Thanks for being so kind. Daniel Timani.

I came into the ER in tears. Panicking for my health most importantly, Dr. Laroche was my ER doc! She was very rude, speaking about what I have told her very loudly with the door wide open, so embarrassing for me (I didn't even want to come out the room). I told her she was making me feel uncomfortable and her response was " maybe you making me feel uncomfortable" throughout the entire time I was here I spoke to her with respect. Never felt so judged in my life ?? Without knowing why?

Very thorough. Took the time to explain in detail. Checked in on me repeatedly; made me very comfortable (despite the fact that I was in the emergency room). Feel very confident in her knowledge and care provided.
