His practice is holistic in that he emphasizes that wellness can only be achieved through balance between our bodies and our minds. His integrated approach can be seen in his ability to manage both primary care and psychiatric conditions.

He has a license in Florida and New York. 

Dr. Laracuente has been a teacher for more than 20 years. He has taught at major universities, such as Nova Southeastern University, Miami-Dade College, and Universidad del Turabo (part of the Ana G. Mendez University System). Both Miami-Dade County Public Schools and private medical clinics have used him to evaluate the abilities of children with disabilities, as well as the need for services for children and adults. He is considered one of the founders of the Master's in Child Protection at Nova Southeastern University. His research led to the development of a course that is required to get this graduate degree. 

Dr. Laracuente has served in leadership and investigative roles for the Florida Department of Children and Families (DCF) and the NYC Administration for Children's Services, where he specialized in neglect, physical, and sexual abuse. He specializes in various forms of trauma as a therapist and provider.

Dr. Laracuente has extensive experience conducting psychiatric assessments required for bariatric weight loss, as well as early intervention. Additionally, he regularly conducts comprehensive developmental evaluations to assess developmental disorders in children (i.e., language delays, autism, ADHD, learning disabilities) and has become instrumental in ordering early services for these children.

Dr. Brutus completed her studies at New York Medical College in Valhalla, New York, and is an experienced emergency room (ER) doctor with more than 20 years of practice. Her approach to patient care is that medicine goes beyond simply prescribing a pill. She sees it as a holistic practice that must consider the entire patient — physically, emotionally, and socially.

Another area of expertise at La Bonne Sante Clinic is pain management, including neuropathy and chronic pain managment. Treatment programs combine traditional approaches and psychology with the most effective complementary therapies, like the Nerve Reviver system and stem cell therapy solutions. Dr. Brutus uses data to guide her decisions while maintaining a hands-on approach to care.

 

The pandemic profoundly influenced Dr. Brutus’s perspective on medicine, reinforcing her commitment to a comprehensive, patient-centered approach and ensuring patients feel seen, heard, and supported as they navigate their most challenging moments.
