Care philosophy
Dr. LaRocca believes in patient centered care. She will work with you in all aspects of your health and wellness. She takes a strong interest in YOU, as the patient, and encourages each and every patient to take ownership of his/her health and wellness, and she will serve as the coach. Steer, and she will navigate! When not caring for patients or teaching, you can find Dr. LaRocca running a half marathon, weight training at the gym, engaging in physician leadership/political activism, or chasing her 2 and 4 year old children. She lives with her husband and said children in Boynton Beach.
