Lawrence Wells, MD

Safe to say Dr Wells is our new favorite. He was absolutely wonderful. The visit was efficient, he was knowledgeable, helpful, and has a wonderful personality. CHOP is very lucky to have him, and so are we.

Dr. Wells is an incredible physician. He explained my son's injury to both myself and my son, he spoke to my son with so much clarity and age appropriateness, and his cultural awareness was exactly what my son needed to connect with his physician.I cannot thank Dr. Wells enough.

An excellent physician

Dr. Wells was amazing! He kept the appointment lighthearted but at the same time addressed the issues.

Very knowledgeable and patient

Our doctor was simply amazing. Included my son in every discussion and explained everything in way he could understand.

Dr Wells was thoughtful and comprehensive in his assessment of my daughters injury.

Dr. Wells should be the standard for all doctors in your organization. His kind demeanor, professionalism, and genuine commitment to a level of excellence was exhibited throughout the visit! I pray we don't have to see him often but would love the opportunity for him to care for my family and friends if the situation arises. Thank you for sharing him with us.

Dr Wells is the BEST Dr at CHOP

Dr. Wells was incredible with my daughter, spoke to her directly, asked her questions, gave her choices and made her feel like she was in charge of the whole process. Ex: how long should we keep the cast on 6 hours, 6 weeks or 6 months? My daughter adored him, felt empowered and truly understood the process thanks to his explanations directly to her. His bedside manner is incredible and you can tell he was meant for pediatrics. I've already recommended him to a friend.

Wonderful doctor. We are fortunate to be seeing Dr. Wells.

Dr. Wells was warm and full of information and incredibly kind with my teenager and me!

Dr. Wells was very informative. He listened to concerns and did a wonderful job of explaining everything.

The doctor was absolutely wonderful. One of the best experiences we have had with a specialist. He was patient and engaged my son in the process. He ensured that he understood the cause of the problem and the various solutions. He was extremely knowledgeable and very empathetic. I cannot speak highly enough of this physician, Dr. Wells.

Dr Wells is incredibly personable! My daughter was worried about whether the Dr would be nice or not. He had her laughing so hard! He explained everything to us in detail and explained everything we were seeing on the X-Ray. He answered all of our questions thoroughly. We had a fantastic experience with Dr Wells!

Dr. Wells is absolutely amazing. Patient, kind, informative. Excellent bedside manner and it's evident that he cares about his patients.

So far I have not met a surgeon as humble as Dr Wells. He took time with my son to examine him thoroughly and explain both the problem and the solution. He wanted us to get urgent MRI so he waited until I got in touch with the radiology department. Very satisfying experience.

I can't begin to say enough good things about Dr. Wells. My son came in with a minor injury and we wanted to rule out something more serious, which Dr. Wells did. For another physician of his skill and experience, my son's injury might have been an annoyance or an appointment to rush through. But Dr. Wells treated our son as his most important patient at that moment. He took tremendous care in speaking to my son, engaging with him, and helping him understand the science behind his examination. I hope my son will remember that appointment for a long time, but even if he does not, I will. Thank you so much, Dr. Wells, for your care and attention.

Again, Dr. Wells was truly outstanding!

Dr Wells was excellent with both me and my son. He was able to read the room well and knew just what we needed to hear and delivered the information with care and compassion.

Dr. Wells was amazing with my daughter. He involved her in every part of the conversation, providing information when appropriate and asking for her input. I've never seen a more playful and fun examination for a possible fracture!

Excellent doctor

Dr. Wells is the best doctor I have seen.

Dr Wells is the best, most thorough and caring doctor I have ever encountered-either for myself, my children, my parents and even my friends. I could feel how invested he was, is in getting not just data but the subtle pieces of information that clarify and refine that data. He takes time to SAVE time, effort, energy and to prevent further pain for the patient.

Dr. Wells was amazing with my son. His energy level was a perfect match and he was patient with all my questions.

Dr Wells is amazing and has been fantastic in providing quality care for my daughter and her minor sports injuries and would recommend him to anyone needing his specialization in care

Dr. Wells is an excellent doctor. He spends the time talking to the child and making sure they are heard and explaining things to them. Would recommend him to anyone who wants a caring, attentive and wonderful doctor to care for their child's orthopedic needs.

Dr Wells was so kind and caring, made our son very comfortable and asked couple times if anyone had any questions he could answer. He was extremely knowledgeable as well.

I don't have enough words to express my appreciation for Dr. Well. What a great human being and a doctor! He connected with my daughter, listened and answered her questions. He addressed our concerns as parents. He didn't rush us. We are so fortunate to be under his care. Thank you, CHOP!

Dr Wells spoke directly to my child and explained things clearly. He was not in a rush despite how busy he was. My teen felt well cared for and appreciated the explanations and humor.

Dr. Wells spoke to my son directly while still including me. He explained what he was doing and how he read the X-ray. Very engaging

Dr. Wells was wonderful. Heard my concerns as well as my daughters. He involved her in the discussion and ensured she was listening by asking her fun questions throughout the visit. I appreciated that Dr. Wells recognized that she was the patient and needed to take an active role in the discussion about her care. This was her first experience as a teen in being actively involved in the discussion with a doctor. It may seem minor but it was a big stride for her in advocating for herself.

Dr Wells and team were awesome! We left with a clear understanding of how to proceed with my son's injury. The doctor also took time to teach about the injury and areas affected. Dr Wells has an excellent bedside manner!

As my daughter said after the visit, Dr Wells is good at speaking "Kid". He was fantastic

Dr. Wells has such a friendly demeanor. Throughout the whole process of dealing with our toddler daughter's broken foot, he explained everything and tried to get on our daughter's level to make her feel comfortable. I've said so many times how thankful I feel to have CHOP KOP and Dr. Wells in our town.

Dr. Wells was great. He spoke to my son directly and treated him like a patient rather than just speaking to me. He was very good with my son and allowed my son to make decisions for himself. I would highly recommend Dr. Wellls and the entire orthopedic department.

Dr. Wells is absolutely wonderful. He is so kind, very clear & thorough & is amazing with children. The manner in which he spoke to my daughter & explained things was so sweet & caring. I really admire that he discussed her Injury with her, not just the adults in the room. She had a fracture in her foot & he made sure to go over every single detail with her. He spent a lot of time answering questions & explaining everything regarding her injury. This physician is hands down amazing & chop & all of your patients are so lucky to have him. We live out of state & being from another area I felt very confident in the treatment plan & next steps he discussed with us. I am so grateful for Dr. Wells & his staff, and words cannot describe how thankful I am that he was the Orth Dr we saw.

Dr. Wells & his team spoke directly to my son, who is 12, and treated him as the patient. He consulted me & gave me opportunities to ask questions, but I appreciate the way my son was the center of their attention. So often, care providers only address parents.
