The office staff & nurses were very nice and efficient. Once checked in within 5 minutes we were taken into a waiting room where we did not wait. Within several minutes after minor vitals were taken Dr. Lepor was in the room evaluating my medical files. Dr. Lepor listened to our questions and answered them thoroughly, giving us his time without feeling rushed.
If you are looking for a doctor who will be both knowledgeable and understanding Dr. Lepor will not disappoint you.

I like Dr. Lepor's bedside manner, friendliness, and willingness to explain medical issues, but I was not seen by the doctor until 30 minutes after my appointment time, and I was the first appointment of the day! I arrived early to complete the necessary forms, was put in an examination room, my weight and blood pressure checked, then I was left alone. By the time the doctor arrived at the office, it was 40 minutes after I arrived and 30 minutes after my scheduled appointment.
