Visit went very well. Got all my questions answered. Dr. took his time to review my labs, verified my medication list, explained the reasons for the changes he made, and made sure I understood the pt plan he made for me.
My visit was excellent. The office got me in very quick and everybody was very friendly. Dr. Leey was very explaining of everything and all in all a good doctor. When I was finished and went to check-out, Sara the receptionist was excellent in scheduling further appointments and tests that I needed to have completed. I feel that I received excellent care while at my visit.
