Clarence and Lauren Gast started Doctors’ Advantage in May, 1999 with the support of Dr. Wagih Mando (recently moved to Virginia) and their families and have grown in these past 22 years to now serving over 35 independent practices on eight different softwares. We are located in Mandeville, LA and offer a local, in your back office, approach to billing. We started the company because we wanted to offer a service to our providers equal to the kind of service we would want to receive as patients. We have enjoyed serving our clients over the years and providing them with a one-of-a-kind, personal service. We have been happily married since 1989 and our family is everything to us. Above all these things, however, our faith and relationship with God is at the center of our lives. We are grounded in knowing that “With God All Things are Possible!”
