Good bedside manners; Dr. E looks over/at any progress I have made. He is very observant when he see legs swollen. Wants me to get weight and A1C down. Quick to send me to a specialist, like today, wisdom teeth needs to come out got referred to hospital surgical dental clinic, I should him right lower leg wound needs attention after some 9 yrs healed. Received prescription refills. Overall, he and staff good people.

Dr Lacayo, brings a heartwarming experience to an otherwise sterile environment, and I believe this has to do from the fact that he is from abroad. His bed manners are great, he is caring and he makes sure he is understanding what the patient’s needs are and that the patient is comfortable with his explanation and suggestions. He is very knowledgeable and kind too.

Dr L was patient and informative in a session where I was frustrated. He was clear about which physician did what, often a problem when physicians don't work in teams. I have ideas on how to proceed in my case after this session.

I had a virtual visit with Dr. Lacayo and as always, it was an outstanding experience. As a nurse who has previously worked alongside him, I’ve seen firsthand the level of care and dedication he provides to all his patients. He has a truly egalitarian approach—treating every patient with respect, listening without judgment, and ensuring that everyone feels seen, heard, and valued.
Dr. Lacayo is incredibly thorough, knowledgeable, and proactive in his approach to health care. Even through a screen, his attentiveness and genuine concern for patient well-being come through clearly. He takes the time to teach, explain, and ensure you fully understand your health and any recommended treatments. It’s rare to find a provider who blends clinical excellence with such compassion and clarity.
He truly sets the standard for what patient-centered care should be. I feel fortunate to have him as my primary doctor and highly recommend him to anyone seeking a provider who truly listens, educates, and cares.

Last year I was having trouble walking. Dr Lacayo put me in a wheel chair and pushed me over to the Emergency room. Unheard of, but that's the kink of Doctor he is.
