Great doctor,fast appointment,have really bad pain due to gallstones and Dr.Lara is about to remove them.He was very nice explained to me very Well.Thank you Dr.Lara

I had gastric bypass surgery in 2010 and maintain my goal weight. I feel that the follow up from the staff is excellent. The treatment I received from the consultation, to the day of the surgery, to current is excellent. He stresses that intimately the success of the surgery and keeping the weight off is up to the patient. We have to take responsibility for your health. He gives us the tools but it's up to us. I am the healthiest I have ever been!!!!

My overall experience has been great. I was referred to Dr. Lara by my OB-GYN to exam what turned out, thank God, to be a cyst on right breast. The doctor eased my fear. Also, patients should not always blame their doctors for not telling them things when it is also up to the patient to ask questions.Great office staff as well. Visiting this office, takes some slight fear out of you when your doctors are quite good looking and handsome. I know of at least 2 other co-workers who go to this same office, by coincidence. And, we have all said how nice it is to visit the good looking doctors.

I had the GASTRIC BYPASS SURGERY IN 2005 and maintain my weight loss today with the exception of a 20lb weight gain. I was treated with the utmost care by him and his staff.

Amazing human being that truly cares about his patients. Once again thank you so much for the great work on my gastric sleeve surgery. God bless you sir!!!!!

Best Dr. Ever. Thank you Jesus for giving Dr. Lara the skills, dedication and genuine care for his patients. I highly recommend him for anyone considering Bariatic Surgery. :) :) :)

I've never been seen by Dr. Lara however, I've know him since kindergarten and we grew up together through high school as well. In knowing him all those years I've known him to be a very sweet, caring, sincere and gentle individual. I was online looking for another physicians and Dr. Michael Lara's name popped up and noticed a couple of reviews. We are all human and at times don't feel well or had a bad day for whatever reason. His demeanor may have been due to something else happening in his life and possibly came across a rude or standoffish. It happens, maybe you should give him another chance and not judge so harshly. He's a person of integrity and respect. I enjoyed being friends with him throughout the years. Respectfully, Yamira Anna Diaz

My experience with Dr Lara has been very positive. Professional yet personable, knowledgable and attentive.

Dr. Lara has performed several surgeries on me in the last 5 years, and I have been very pleased with his bedside manner, professionalism, knowledge, and how well he explains things. He has given me all facts, and possible complications or outcomes. Two of my surgeries were emergencies, and I had to be transferred from another hospital to his hospital.

Dr. Lara and his team has perfectly prepared and performed the gastric sleeve surgery on me February 8, 2016. He has been considerate and genuine in his care for me. I went to work one week after my surgery and have been able to take charge of my health. I am so thankful to have gone with him, to have a new self-confidence, to continue in success while losing and gaining a new life back. I wish I had done it 15-20 years ago.
