Dr. Leal is the bees knees

I was treated holistically with a plan geared just for my needs.

I was a patient of Dr. Leal years ago and he is more wonderful than ever.

Intelligent, open-minded and so very kind.

This place sucks! They need to fire everyone. Its's sad, the only good ratings on here are employees that works at this dump. Everyone there is rude and nasty. Not worth the trouble.

The rudest, most unprofessional place I've ever experienced in my entire life. Dr. Leal is so rude as well as the staff. I couldn't stand it. I wasn't paying $408 to be treated in this manner. There was another patient in the next room screaming and cursing. The doctor asked where my pain was I told him then said "the MRI" in mid sentence he says I didn't ask you about the MRI. Then says you've done everything I was going to recommend, so there's nothing I can do for you. Then said could only take down the meds I've been on for 6 years, which still leaves me in unbearable pain. He didn't talk to me about anything nor look over my records at all. I'm not looking for just a prescription, I need a doctor who cares about making a plan to where I can live and care for my kids. I can't sit, stand, lay down, bathe, walk, or do anything without meds, and I'm tired of it. Pain can really consume your entire life, and having a good doctor is imperative! Dr. Leal should not be a licensed doctor. He came in the room on my first visit slamming down his clipboard because he was the only doctor there. No introduction or anything. How is this place open? Not to mention I had to go ask the office lady for my new patient paperwork after sitting there for an hour. If I could give no stars I would. BBB needs to intervene!!!!!!!!

Negative stars if possible! I had an ER visit two days ago. The ER doctor recommended I go see Dr. Leal within 5-7 days. Of course I called immediately after release from the hospital. I was put on an initial 5 min. hold without warning. Then an unpleasant and seemingly scornful woman picked up the phone and fired off an enormous list of required documentation before even scheduling a visit. I explained the ER doctor recommended I schedule promptly and could she repeat what they needed. Again, the woman reluctantly rapidly fired through a list what they needed faxed. No indication of time frame, inquiry about the injury, or concern what-so-ever. However, I complied and immediately went to med records at the hospital to request all required documents faxed to Dr. Leal. I was in the hospital while the documents were faxed, waited 15 mins, called Dr. Leal’s office, was put on hold for 7:32 and when the staff picked up I explained everything had been faxed. She placed me on another hold for almost 12 min, never refreshed the call. Came back on the line, said there was no such fax, please send the required information and disconnected the call! I waited two more hours and called Dr. Leal to get an appt. First I was blindly put on hold for 14 min, no one ever refreshed the call. I called back and was tersely informed that they would look to see if they could "find" my faxed medical information. I explained I was calling after an ER visit etc., that my records had been faxed and I was suddenly placed on another 8:52 min hold. When the call was picked up, it was an entirely different person who was equally unpleasant and had no idea what the previous conversation was about. I explained that I was told to see Dr. Leal within a timeframe and that the ER doctor specified, "not to chase my pain" (I apparently require back surgery). The woman named "Maria" could not have been ruder or more unhelpful had she tried, she even shouted, “I’m trying to help you”. Really? Then not yelling would be advised. By this time, I was in my primary physician's office and the doctor was right beside me. She asked me to hold and I asked her name. She demanded my phone number before giving me her name, umm ok. She said she would call me back but placed me on hold during which time my primary made one phone call and scheduled an immediate appointment with another doctor. Of course she never did call back. Even though my insurance would have covered all costs, I would have regretted supporting this practice in ANY way. If the scheduling line is an inkling of the health care practice then AVOID AT ALL COSTS. It was a truly an atrocious attempt at scheduling and communication, I can’t imagine what the care or follow up is like.

I strongly recommend Dr. Leal

It saddened me when I see ungrateful patients writing bad reviews on a doctor like Dr. Leal, he is a wonderful doctor that truly cares about the well being of his patients. I've been a patient of Dr. Leal for several years now and all I have to say is that he is a wonderful doctor and it is very obvious that he loves his profession because he really takes his time with his patients to assist them correctly with their medical needs. I will be forever grateful to him and his staff for making me feel that they truly care. I strongly recommend Dr. Leal to any patient that truly wants a Doctor that cares and respects his patients. I give Dr. Leal and his staff members 5 full stars all the way!

Thank you, thank you and thank you Doctor Leal!
