Dr. Lawrence Carpio, DO

I've never been more blindsided, confused or discomforted by an encounter with a doctor. He walked in the door as my new primary care physician and greeted me with a very awkward handshake—it was immediately obvious that he did not like me, which was incredibly creepy and bizarre. At no point in the excruciating thirty-minute meeting did he even vaguely express concern for my pretty serious issues, instead virtually reprimanding me for not wanting to submit to therapy or antidepressant medication. It felt more like a police interrogation than a doctor's appointment.

Dr. Carpio made time to see my father when my brother found him with a low heart rate. He quickly assessed the situation and told our father in no uncertain terms he was going to the ED via EMS. Two days later my father had a pacemaker inserted and went home the next day. I have been a RN for 37 years and Dr. Carpio is one of most astute, caring family medicine doctors I've ever meet. I truly believe he saved my 83 year old father's life.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts to Dr Marko, Dr. Carpio, & University Physical Therapy on Breakknot Rd! Your care has been truly a miracle! Life changing not only for my brother, Brent, but the family as well. With your compassion, skill, and hard work, in addition to his determined hard work on a daily basis, he has grown into a stronger & healthier man than we ever dared to dream or hope for! After the brain hemorrhage he suffered in early childhood, every day has been a battle. After a lifetime of thousands of falls & the damages resulting, he is now able to safely walk without assistance. When he moved here a few months ago, he was in constant debilitating pain. We were afraid to leave him alone for more than a few hours because he was unsafe to do anything on his own. Now he is not only able to care for himself, but actually taking over many of the tasks that had fallen to others. Pain management is no longer the primary focus of his days.

Very professional, good bedside manner. Wait time was minimal.

Dr Carpio handled my situation with care & professionalism .
