I chose Ms. Lacefield because of location, her claim of being a Christian medical provider, and her being on my insurance provider's approved list. At my initial visit, Ms. Lacefield presented as gentle, meek, and very attentive. As long as I responded to her with deference she was pleasant & available. BUT, as soon as I voiced personal needs and/or opinions different than hers AND the "guidelines" set forth by my insurance provider, her demeanor changed. I was told that my "unwillingness to take certain medications and to participate in wellness surveys and screenings would make her look bad to the insurance provider."
I employed Ms. Lacefield to provide support, expertise, and treatment for MY health and wellness and to prescribe what is BEST for ME. Insurance is only to assist me in ACCESSING and PAYING for that medical expertise and treatment. Insurance does not get to dictate MY medical treatment. I DO. Ms. Lacefield's priority is to the insurers' protocols rather than to what is best for the patient.
Dr. Carey Lacefield is not upholding her self-sworn oath to prescribe only beneficial treatments, according to his/her abilities and judgment; to refrain from causing harm or hurt; and to live an exemplary personal and professional life. You as the patient, will NOT be her priority as my experience verifies. I do not recommend her. read more
