Dr. Laband was referred to me by 2 other women who both RAVED ABOUT HIM! They told me he was an incredible doctor with a wonderful bedside manner. They said he was gently, and spent time with a woman, gave her options, allowed her input and would hold her hand if necessary with the decisions she made. That was a pretty big endorsement - from 2 separate people who did not know each other! I have been with his practice for several years now and I can confirm EVERYTHING they told me is true from my experience. If you are looking for a GYN doctor, you should give the office a call! His practice IS full and he is very popular, but he is WORTH THE WAIT!! Call now:)
