He's the first rec that showed up on my insurance. Going to go with him. Thanks.


He’s mine too and my wife and daughter as well.

Great guy, give you plenty of time for discussion and he is always levelheaded and doesn’t push anything. I’ve been with him for I guess at least 10 years.

I use Dr. Joseph Larriviere at the Baton Rouge Clinic. He is a good dude. I would recommend for sure.


Not if you’re on TRT lol. He’s not a fan

That's True! He lectured me about it more than once. Didn't take his advice.

95% of doctors have no clue what they're talking about when it comes to TRT so this is not surprising. If he's good otherwise, I'll give him a shot. Already on TRT so not relying on him for a referral

His main issue is he's certain it greatly increases you risk of a stroke.

I had a TIA a couple of years ago. When I told him he said " you;re the third one of my patients this year on TRT that's had one.

He was not happy camper. Of course neither was I Scary as all shite.

oh really? Nice to know. Care to elaborate? Dude really tried to scare me with that

I’ll be honest. He seemed like a nice enough guy. But he prescribed me some meds without discussing anything and I found out by CVS calling me and telling me my prescription was ready. I thought they had the wrong #. That shite kinda pissed me off. Won’t be back
