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.

When I first started seeing Dr. Larcena I was barely able to make it to the bathroom and then back to my bed...Dr. Larcena has literally changed my life for the better in so many ways. I went from not being able to go in a store for four years to now being able to do my own shopping and I will forever be grateful. I would recommend Dr. Larcena to anyone that needs a caring Dr. that will listen to you and truly care about any health needs you may have. I just want to thank Dr. Larcena and also everyone on his staff who are always so sweet and kind and helpful ?? Thank you all so very much ??

I went in with the problem of my fingers being numb. He never once asked what brought me there. Just asked how long it had been since I had blood work, Mammogram and colon exam. As he was leaving I asked if he would like to know why I was there, he stopped in doorway and replied "what". When I told him my issue, I was told, "when you get all the test run then come back and see me". There was no care or concern about my issue. I feel the mammogram and colon exam was not as important as to why my fingers were numb. Also, took up to a week to get a refill approved for pharmacy. I ended up having to show up at office to get a paper script, with attitude from staff.

Dr. Larcena's excellent diagnostic ability identified a high blood calcium condition as Hyperparathyroidism, suggested a practice in Tampa that specialize in the surgical cure and that whole surgury experience was excellent. Dr. Larcena is very affable and I always enjoy the appointments with him.

I found Dr. Larcena in 2005 & have enjoyed the relationship I formed with him & his wonderful staff. This Dr. makes sure you are current on medical test that are appropriate to your sex & age. He ordered an MRI for my back pain & by chance found an abdominal aortic aneurism. He referred me to a vascular surgeon who watched it for a year & had to perform surgery b/c of the growth. W/O the MRI it would have gone undiagnosed & w/o the surgery I would have died. He also has a great bedside manner.
