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 Lesnik is a wonderful doctor. I am glad I go see him. He listens and looks thoroughly at my problems. Is office staff is one of the most friendly people I have met. I would recommend him to everyone. He did sinus surgery on my mom when she was 78 and he explained everything to her. (2 yrs) ago. I have a sinus condition that I went to my gp and now I need to see him I know he can get rid of this problem.

Dr. lesnik is a very young vibrant, educate doctor
He was surprisingly very nice to me, you just never know with doctors these days. I like that fact that he listened to my concerns. He understood what the problem was right away. He also took the time to educate me, on what was the problem. He advised me to have multiple necessary test done and explained everything to me. He wasn't rude or rushy at all. I havent gotten my procedure done yet due to pregnancy but I most definitely will. And I highly recommend him.

Dr. Lesnik is wonderful. His front desk receptionist is another matter. She was obnoxious when asked if the practice accepted Husky insurance and sneered, “You can’t run a business by taking STATE insurance!” Telling her I was in a lot of pain from blocked ears made no difference. Very sad that there is such a bias against poor patients by front office staff when the doctor is exceptional and caring (I had a visit with him when I had “real” insurance.)

Dr. Lesnik listens to what you have to say until you are done speaking. He 'hears' what you are telling him and acknowledges what you have said. So unusual in this hurry up world. I am so grateful I found this practice.

Grateful Patient – Jun 23, 2020
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Lesnik?
Due to a skin cancer diagnosis, I had multiple surgeries performed by Dr. Gregory Lesnik to reconstruct the afflicted area, my ear, upon removal of the cancer. Dr. Lesnik is extremely precise surgeon. He is very proficient, pleasant and efficient. Recovery was faster than expected and the end result was better than I initially anticipated given the extent of damage the skin cancer had caused and amount of ear tissue that needed to be removed to eliminate the cancer. Today the reconstruction is so good, most people would never know I ever had cancer surgery and reconstruction on my ear. I highly recommend him.
