Welcome to Lafayette Arthritis and Endocrine Clinic

Lafayette Arthritis and Endocrine Clinic is a multispecialty clinic specializing in the medical management of rheumatology and endocrine issues.  Our doctors, nurse practitioners, nurses and support staff strive to give you the best possible health care, in a friendly and caring environment.

 

 

ANNOUNCEMENT

 

Dr. James Lipstate will be retiring at the end of this year.  His last day to see patients in office will be December 19, 2024.

 

Dr. Lipstate is entrusting his patients to Dr. Laura Rivers who has been treating patients in our clinic since August 1, 2023.  Dr. Rivers is a native of Lafayette, who is board certified in Rheumatology.  We will also schedule patients who have been seeing Dr. Lipstate with the nurse practitioners, Layne Lemaire, C-FNP and Rebekah Garrard, C-FNP.  These two nurse practitioners should be very familiar to you if you have previously seen Dr. Lipstate.  

 

We are very confident that this transition will be very smooth for all of Dr. Lipstate's patients.  If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our office or send us a message through the portal/Healow app.
