Susan Laningham, MD 1311-A North Mildred Road, Cortez, CO 81321

"In my opinion... she is not rude at all. She is direct and professional, good news or bad news... without all the fluffy word salad comments - that those who find her rude - like to hear. When it comes to health conversations, just give it to me straight, thank you Dr. Laningham for your very direct/it is what it is bedside manner. I dont need or want a coddling dr, I want to get in and get out, no "your my new best friend" and "hows the weather" time wasting conversations!! In fact I hope I never have to see her. But when I do, she's a very good Dr."

"You were cruel and made judgements about my dying husband that were patently false. You wouldn’t prescribe what worked for him (pain wise) so, you gave him Percocet and muscle relaxers. He was sick for days.from a terrible reaction to the pills. You assumed that he had a problem with addiction. If you had bothered to even look at him during your first meeting you might have understood that he is neither an addict nor a liar. You treated him like both. We are deep in Hospice now. He has only a few days at most. Thanks for making him suffer for no reason whatsoever."

"Susan Laningham was my doctor for 18 years. I never found her to be rude, on the contrary, she took time to explain anything I didn't understand, listened to me, let me try some of my harebrained ideas before complying with her treatment. Broke my heart when she moved to Colorado, takes years and years to build trust like that."

"She is rude ."

"My first encounter with Dr Laningham was amazing. She is straight forward and to the point. Made me feel hopeful and more positive about my illness. Highly recommend!"
