Lavine Lawrence DO - Tacoma, Washington

Jacqueline Stonas

Dr. Levine's care is not for everyone but I'm eternally in his debt for saving my daughter from brain damage. I would recommend him in a heartbeat to anybody who has an open mind about alternative healthcare and is willing to trust a process that they do not understand. We did very regular and often daily visits for almost 6 weeks until the crisis was past. You can imagine that our bill was more than enormous. Knowing that we could not immediately pay he offered his services regardless and we worked out a very generous payment plan. This is not a medical office as you would expect. Everything is not pristine and perfect and sterile. But that didn't bother me in the least. Just the energy in the air of walking into his office give me such hope that my daughter was in the right place. Unbeknownst to me, several years later a friend of mine also used his services and their child with cerebral palsy is able to have a high functioning life based on his treatments. It was so interesting to cross paths with this friend and to share stories and to realize that the same person had helped us both so immensely. There were several times that our visit overlapped with somebody else in the waiting room and wonderful stories of healing were shared. If you are locked into the grid of traditional medicine then i would suggest that this isn't for you. But if you're willing to think outside the box and do anything to give someone a chance at better health then I would beg for the next available appointment.

Doctor Lavine is not a conventional doctor so do not expect that however he is one of the best physicians at solving your health problems that you will ever fine. If you trust his process as different as it is you can get rid of pain and injury that normal doctors will just give you drugs for and send you on your way.

I am so grateful for all of the support Dr. Lavine (and Loretta!) have provided. Dr. Lavine is incredibly experienced, knowledgeable and has an amazing combination of skills, plus an open mind and a great ear. He is always clear that he is not the one doing the healing, but helping create the conditions for your body to heal itself. I am so grateful for his help!

Dr. Lavine saved my daughter's life.

My daughter was injured in an accident in 2010. She endured a traumatic brain injury, and over time, her injuries worsened, causing her body to be severely disabled. By 2012, she was confined to bed and a wheelchair, and she was in extreme chronic pain. Her body functions were no longer working, and she would often experience states of total paralysis.

After seeing numerous neurologists, neuropsychologists, and specialists, finally, last year, in February 2014, my daughter received a special video mri scan at ucla with a radiologist who found her true diagnosis, and then she was referred to Dr. Lavine. He began treating her in March 2014.

Dr. Lavine's work is astonishing. We see that God has worked miracles through his techniques of aggressive cranial and spinal osteopathic manipulation. It has been a long hard road of healing this year. It is all worth it. We are starting to see our daughter return! With ballroom dancing for physical therapy!!! One year later, she is sometimes painfree, and she is walking without a cane!

This doctor is an intuitive healer, and we are blessed to have him in our life.

I brought my one year old to Dr. Lavine but couldn't even finish the appointment. Everything seemed really unprofessional. The clinic is in a converted garage at his house in a residential neighborhood. The whole place looked poorly maintained and cluttered, inside and out from what I saw. The waiting room was dirty. The carpet needed vacuumed and there were books just sitting on the floor. There were outlets without safety covers in the weird little kid corner. During the 45 minute wait a woman not wearing shoes came into the waiting room from the house with two little dogs. When we finally saw the doctor, he wanted me to lay my baby on a blanket covered with someone else's long brown hairs. I mentioned something and he just flipped the blanket over but there were hairs on that side too! He said he needed to put his fingers in her mouth but he wasn't wearing gloves. I asked him if he was going to wash his hands and he replied that he had before coming into the room. He had literally just finished touching a pen and that dirty blanket! I left at that point. He was kind enough not to charge me but we drove 2.5 hours to get there so that was lame!

Very understanding and knowledgeable doctor that takes all things into consideration while providing more time and flexibility to his patients. You are allowed the experience of learning more about your own health and what it takes to get the best possible natural recovery. If you are unsure about anything just ask and find out for yourself.

Dr Lavine, despite being a doctor, is an anti-masker. He refused to wear a mask during treatment and sees coronavirus patients in the office, for whom he still prescribes hydroxychloroquine. Do not go here if you want to stay safe.

Best doctor I have ever had because of his knowledge, understanding and compassion for patients. Thank you Dr Lavine!
