Patient Reviews
Apr 01, 2023
I use my voice in my work and Dr. Lafreniere has been my go-to doctor for any and all voice-related illnesses and conditions. He is thorough and calm in his examination of the voice, throat, nose, and ears and has always given me sound advice and effective treatment. He is always empathetic and reassuring.
