She (Dr. Lara Fakunle) is very thorough, and I know she has my health and history as her top priority.
I was referred to Dr. Fakunle after years of issues with my blood sugar & illogical weight gain. My PCP had diagnosed me with type II diabetes. I'd just had a hip replacement due to severe arthritis. I'd suffered a lot of vague, seemingly unrelated symptoms. She took a thorough look at me, asking me lots of questions, & said - I want to get an MRI of your brain. I got the MRI. On our follow-up, it was a EUREKA moment. I had a pituitary tumor - I had acromegaly. It explained all of the symptoms I had been suffering with for Y... read more
She likes to use you as a guinea pig instead of using standard proven techniques! Very rude!! Refused to fill a rx that I have been on for over 20 yrs causing horrible complications instead of tapering me off it all because she said “I dont do that”. I am seriously considering filing a complaint with the medical licensing board!
I was not a fan. Dr. Fakunle was insulting and rejected any alternate suggestion that I offered. I was having difficulty losing weight. When I told her that I had been keeping record of my dietary intake she scoffed and said "you people" eat terribly. What an elitist and racist remark for a dr to tell a patient.
refuses to work with primary Dr makes referals when told not to 4 hrs round trip for client and take over 3 weeks to discuss test results
She’s my doctor, but I rarely get to talk with her directly. Often, I am pawned off to an APRN.
excellent care
Excellent Doctor
Dr Fakunle has very poor bedside manner and does not listen to her patients. She has very limited understanding of people living with Type 1 diabetes nor does she have empathy. She is not willing to use technology such as continuous glucose monitor results to make adjustments to doses preferring to superficially look at average 1c results to make changes. Her office staff are not well trained and communications by fax and email always go unanswered.
