Dr. Javier A. Lafuente

It’s been over three years since Dr. LaFuente performed my triple bypass surgery. He is a wonderful Doctor and I am so grateful to him. I would highly recommend him to anyone facing a bypass, especially high risk. He is very caring and I just can’t say enough about him!

Dr Javier LaFuente, did surgery on my foot almost over 2 years ago, October 14, 2019. He worked at Parkland Memorial Hospital which is also associated with U. T. Southwestern Medical Center. Since the surgery, I have been disabled too and I am very upset about this too. Also Doctor Javier LaFuente did not come and talk to me about the surgery before the surgery, nor did he let me know there was a chance of becoming disabled as I would not of gone through the surgery. But don't usually Doctors come in and speak with you about information about that? Anyways I just wanted to let you all know this, because I wouldn't want this to happen to anyone else and I would not want anyone else to become permanently 'disabled' either. Thank you again for reading my post. And may God Bless 'us' all. Happy Holidays to you all too. Dr Javier LaFuente, did surgery on my foot almost over 2 years ago, October 14, 2019.

Dr. LaFuente and Nurse Practitioner Delmar are above amazing. Total my hunny has had about 10 surgeries and 4 from them and having experienced the lowest of compassion, lack of bedside manner from other Dr's it's wonderful to experience the best. Thanks you for making a difficult life a little better. Quick response for after surgery after hour calls. Super duper recommend Dr. LaFuente for his knowledge and steady hands!

Dr. Lafuente is brilliant, unassuming, compassionate and the very best in his field.

Dr. Lafuente reciently changed my husband's Aortic Valve. Dr. Lafuente is the BEST Surgeon anyone would want! He knows what he's doing and he cares about the patient! Even though he was in surgery with someone else on other days, he still came to check on my husband everyday. He sometimes checked twice in a day while he was in hospital. My husband and myself 100% trust Dr. Lafuente and my husband's Valve is working great! We will recommend Dr. Lafuente to everyone!

I saw Dr. LaFuente March 17, 2017 to repair an inguinal hernia that had been operated on 7 yrs before, but never done correctly. The staff was courteous and professional. My operation took about 2 hours and I was home on the same day, but needed someone to drive me home. The post-opt pain was substantial but endured with pain meds. The swelling has gone done and pain is almost gone. All in all, I am quite satisfied with the excellent work done by Dr. LaFuente and recommend him without reservations.

My Father had a heart attack while in Houston seeing the birth of his 7th grandchild. The night after baby delivered he had a heart attack and needed quintuple bypass surgery. As an RN working in the medical center I was very picky with who I would let operate on my Father. Dr. Lafuente and the medical staff at Methodist West Houston were incredible. I could not have been more pleased with the open heart surgery or with any other step in the process. Excellent! I'm so thankful God had him here!
