An awful physician. The filthy office and harried staff set the tone for the horrid visit. A hour and a half wait and the doctor was abrasive, unpleasant, threatening and a poor diagnostician. One of the nastiest people I have ever encountered.

Please stay away! Especially poor with special needs patients who I could hear him berating loudly in another exam room.

If you want a pal who is going to discuss family and friends along with your pets and the latest football scores, then choose another doctor. If you 're looking for a doctor who doesn't mince words when talking about what you need to do to keep you healthy, then Dr. Lamentia will take good care of you. He's all business and that isn't going to change. If you're like me who blows off finger sticks and correct diet, then his severe persona will definitely cause you to sit up and take notice and I need that. I have about four or five ailments for which I am being treated only two of which had been previously treated. He has gotten everything under control and who knows what kind of situation I would be in today if I hadn't been referred to Dr. Lamentia. As far as his office looks and location, he has just recently remodeled the office and enlarged the parking lot. In some ways the hominess of his facilities is relaxing. And speaking of location, it very easy to get to.

He left me alone in the appointment room for quite a while. He was extremely argumentative and became angry very easily. I was trying to explain my situation and he just contradicted everything I was saying before I could finish. He was unfriendly during our appointment. He was late a few times to my appointments. His office was quiet. He made incorrect diagnosis of symptoms having nothing to do with his area of specialty & informing other doctors of this. Never was able to discuss my numbers or further treatment options, what he says is what you will do. Put me on incorrect, high dosing of medication that I ended up having an allergic reaction to. Didn't believe what I was telling him as far as symptoms had anything to do with my ailment, though confirmed with other endocrinologist, ENT, primary & other patients with my condition that they definitely are symptoms of my ailment. Now with new doctor & medication adjustment doing much better.
