Damian Lafitte, MD Pediatrics in Warrenton, MO

I nominate Dr. Lafitte for any award. He is the most compassionate, kind, personable doctor I have ever met. He treats my kids like they are his own. For parents, he is so reassuring. He is constantly talking about the data and research behind his decisions. I know he keeps himself up-to-date on the newest information out there. He will acknowledge when he doesn't know an answer, but follows through on his word to find out the answer. There is no one I'd rather have taking care of our children. When you've prayed for God to bless you with children, you also pray that everyone in their village will treat them like a blessing too. Dr. Lafitte is that answered prayer. I hope Cardinal Glennon knows what an amazing asset Dr. Lafitte is to our community. I know outpatient clinical staff rarely get the recognition they deserve.

He is a wonderful doctor. We are very lucky to have him and so is Cardinal Glennon.

We have had such a wonderful experience with Dr. Lafitte. He is attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely takes the time to listen. What I appreciate most is how he allows my 15-year-old to speak for himself and treats him with respect, rather than directing every question and conversation toward the parent. He is the same with my other kiddos. We are very thankful we found him as our pediatrician. As a parent of a teenager with ADHD, I especially appreciate Dr. Lafitte’s approach. He trusts my son to take responsibility for his own care and follow through with the work he needs to do, while still providing the guidance and support he needs. This has helped encourage independence, confidence, and accountability. The change in him with the tips and tricks of Dr. Lafitte has been phenomenal. It is so refreshing to have a doctor who recognizes that teenagers are capable of being active participants in their own healthcare. Dr. Lafitte makes my son feel heard, respected, and trusted, and that means so much to us as parents. We are very grateful for his care and would highly recommend him!

He truly is an amazing Dr. always takes as much time as he needs to, we never feel rushed. Answers all of our questions and takes his time listening to any concerns or questions we have. My boys love him as their dr and always look forward to their visits

He’s the best doctors
