Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr Leroy is amazing. He is straight to the point. Always ask questions about what is going on with me!

Do not recommend to any patient seeking care.

This physician should not be a licensed physician. His behavior is irrational, angry and disrespectful. You are not allowed to ask questions. This is not in any way an appropriate pain management physician and one wonders why this rude person would choose this specialty.

Fresno is lucky to have a caring, kind doctor!
My surgeon referred me to this kind man, as I am too old to be a back surgery candidate. This has truly improved the quality of my life. Thank you!

Great doctor - no nonsense
Dr Leroy is a knowledgeable and a caring doctor who comes off as a little gruff. Don’t let this deter you. He is the most knowledgeable and compassionate doctor I have worked with in 20+ years of chronic pain issues.

B patient – Oct 14, 2022

I went to see Dr Leroy because my pain doctor who was great went to Kaiser. I have usually seen the nurse practitioners. Since Covid I have had to take telephone calls from Leroy, they have never been pleasant and always has exhibited yelling in some fashion. I asked about his injury one time and said I was sorry. He said, “Why are you sorry, you had nothing to do with it, you remind me of some smarmy lady from the south saying oh you poor dear. I am so sorry. I dealt with this 30 years ago and I don’t need your sympathy.” Well after that I learned to say yes sir no sir. When he called this week I had run out of meds due to pharmacy issues. So I used some his nurse had ordered. He screened I could not be trusted and he would no longer be my dr and I had 15 days to find someone new. Maybe this has been an answer to a prayer I had yet to pray. I have incurable cancer + a lot more painful stuff and I need a caring dr to help me through my final days. I certainly don’t want him.

A kicked out patient – Feb 18, 2022
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Leroy?
Prior to leaving my review I would like to say that I am a Clinic Psychologist and relatively new patient of one of the most unprofessional MD`s I have ever encountered. I broke my neck in an automobile accident in 1999. I am an incomplete Quadratic. Prior to going to see him I had only been to one Pain Specialist in my life. That Doctor wanted to prescribe Oxytocin. I said absolutely not. Fast-forward to seeing Edward I saw he worked with spinal cord injuries so I decided to see him. I certainly wasn't drug seeking, the reason I went to him was his specialty NOT medication that I was already getting from my Primary Doc. I had couple really bad weeks of pain so I called to find help. What a mistake, he`s a Paraplegic and apparently overcompensating for his lack of physical functioning. If I treated my patients 1/16th as Rude as him I would quit practicing. I would recommend that he seek professional help!!

Dr LeRoy your staff did it again I guess I’m gonna have to come see you every month because as I’m leaving your office you take care of my Scripps well I called in five days ahead of time I even had a pharmacy call in and remind them and they didn’t get it filled and it’s always on Friday now I don’t have any medication first it’ll be three days before Monday gets here and the type of meds that you have me on you know as well as I do I cannot go that long without anything your staff is going to cost you my business and I like you personally We get along just fine just you and I only office and we’re talking but your staff is inadequate compared to the other doctors I go I go to the doctor so I see a lot of staff and I’m giving you a heads up they are not doing you any favors and I’m not gonna mention anything names on this list I’ll tell you in person but I know you know who I’m talking about

Dr. LeRoy is a very good listener and really tries to help his patients. It's obvious that he's not a doctor that just writes scrips and gets patients in and out like a revolving door. If a treatment or remedy doesn't work for the patient, he offers alternative options and recommendations until the patient receives satisfactory results. I'm truly grateful to be a patient of Dr. LeRoy.
