Dr. William Litchfield, MD

Front desk (especially Nikki) are so nice and helpful. Corey the dr asst and Doctors Amanda And Jamie are so kind and helpful And are Not condescending

I think I've developed high blood pressure and anxiety due to having to deal with this office's staff and nurses! Unfortunately it's not easy to find a good Endocrinologist in Las Vegas, so I don't have many options, but there is no way that I can continue with this staff. They absolutely don't care about their patients, and do not LISTEN at all! They are quick to tell you what you need to do, without letting you finish your sentence! If your health is important to you, think twice before going to this office. They will not care about you. They only care about what's convenient for them!

I have been a patient of Desert Endocrinology since June 2017. Although I have only seen Dr. Litchfield twice, he was the on-call physician this past weekend. I have been battling with CVS to receive necessary diabetes supplies for over a month and was in dire straits on Friday. I called Desert Endocrinology twice due to the total ineptness of CVS, who HAD the information (actual prescription and Medicare coding) but still would not fill my prescription. Dr. Litchfield went above and beyond and called the CVS Pharmacist in charge HIMSELF, in order for me to receive not only my supplies but also the proper coding for Medicare to pay the bill, saving me over $400. I cannot say enough about Dr. Litchfield, the entire staff and particularly Jamie Jadid, APRN who I regularly see every three months. LOVE this practice and cannot recommend them highly enough! I previously saw a supposed "most highly rated" endocrinologist in Summerlin who misdiagnosed me and was AWFUL!!!

Run from this doctor as quickly as you can! I understand there is a shortage on Endos in Vegas, but find someone else that is not associated with this office to help you. They often accuse you of "no showing" even though you have rescheduled with them. They won't refill your medication in a timely manner, and they are extremely rude. You are not a patient they care about, rather you are simply a number. They often come in, type on their computer for a few minutes, then dismiss you as quickly as they can. WORST DOCTORS EVER and they should be ashamed of themselves.

Very knowledgeable. Explains things very well. Easy to converse with.

Over the past 13 years, I have had several endocrinologists and found they were pretty much the same, prescribing the predictable medications for diabetes, lecturing about diet and exercise and offering little that I already didn't know. Dr. Litchfield actually listens to his patients before devising a plan for treatment, and to use the cliche, he thinks outside the box. He explains all options clearly and in terms civilians can understand, something I have found is rare among endocrinologists. Dr. Litchfield used a white board to present and organize a plan that represented my unique situation, and has given me optimism that I have found the right doctor. He is a good listener, obviously a competent, caring specialist with the background and tools to help his patients cope with medical issues such as diabetes. I have complete confidence in Dr. Litchfield.

I have been hyperthyroid for years, though I'm a Hashimoto's case. My primary tried for 2 years to help me with changing my dosages. He sent me here for answers. I was never tested for the conditions that cause hyperthyroidism. I previously saw another dr in the practice who overdosed me and this is what Litchfield said was my diagnosis. I didn't argue, figuring he'd see me a few more times and see what was happening. But I only saw a nurse and PA with whom I pleaded to help me find out why I was still hyperthyroid as they repeated the treatment my primary did which was back and forth with the same dosage changes that did nothing. I finally see the dr again and he tells me it's probably my colon! The gastroenterologist just shook his head saying impossible. My colon is fine. But my eyes are swollen from hyperthyroidism my ophthalmologist says. The last appt was with the PA who said I never did and could not possibly have hyperthyroidism.

Don't bother with these people. They want me to see them before they refill my Metformin which is a drug I need for my diabetes. Will not even give me a month's worth until I can get in to see them. Plus with the virus going around I do not want to be in a doctor's office if I do not have to be. My wife asked them what difference does it make whether they see me or not my condition hasn't changed in 3 years, and no answer.

I have full confidence in Dr Litchfield’s experience.

He’s rude!

I have been seeing Dr Litchfield for over 10 years. I feel he is a great Dr and looks out for his patients . I would highly recommend him .

Worst doctor and staff. Neither listens to what u say. 21st century and no one in office has email contact. I prefer contact thru email. Dr automatically believes staff over patients. Dr cancelled appt at last minute. Left me high and dry. Now have no Dr for my prescriptions, which was about the only thing he was good for. I'm type 2 diabetic and almost out of meds. Now what do I do??

I was a patient until i left Las Vegas about 6 years ago. I recently came back and his staff said that after 6 years I would be considered new patient and he's not interested. Poor attitude, he's obviously not the same person I liked 6 years ago.

Great Dr. and PA, Great Staff I have no complaints.

Dr. Litchfield seems to care only about money and most of the time his PAs would see you. No refills unless you have seen them in last 3 months. Will give you free samples and would try to squeeze money from insurance for this samples. Dr. is greedy and support staff is rude.

I questioned a high level on my lab work. Doctor was condescending and dismissed my question and didn't address the underlying issue that caused the high level. When i switched to a new endocrinologist, he ordered an MRI to address the cause of my abnormal result. My condition is currently being treated with medication and the underlying issue is being monitored by my new doctor. I had a medical issue Dr. Litchfield ignored. I wouldn't recommend this doctor.

Very competent and caring - qualities hard to find.

After standing at the counter watching the staff ignore for ten minutes I was told my appointment would cost $300 after insurance just to see him. For the mediocre review's I figured it wasn't worth the time I drove out. Only scheduled an appointment because I heard he would up my meds without really caring.

I read through the reviews before going to see Dr. Litchfield, on this and other sites. Most patients were happy with their visit, some weren't but I decided to go, I'm glad I did. They were all very professional and kind, from start to finish everything went well. The practice is busy and there are other Doctors, when I made another appointment I expressed my desire to be seen only by him and have been accommodated.

Upon scheduling my first appointment with Dr Litchfield, I was given a day and time, that was misquoted. Due to a conflict, I needed to reschedule. Per notes- noted on the website indicated the hours of operation being 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., however, I was unable to reach anyone until 8 a.m.. Once I reached the front office staff, I was told, due to my inability to keep the appointment I compromised patient care. Iceland show no respect; calling me by my first name, she was then rude , unprofessi
