Our Story

With 50 years of service under our belt, we pride ourselves on a legacy of clinical excellence and unmatched customer service. Today, Dr. Mark B. LaHaye, son of Dr. Phil LaHaye, continues to carry forward this proud tradition, ensuring that every patient who walks through our doors experiences the same high standards of care and personal attention that have become synonymous with the LaHaye Ortho name.
