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. Leslie is a very competent, caring doctor. He is courteous and friendly and explains health concerns in terms that an average individual can understand. I would highly recommend Dr. Leslie.

The appointment was over when I told him we never got a covid shot. He was very rude and showed no compassion. Turned his back on me and gave me meds for copd after telling me I didn't have copd.

Horrible attitude!!
I wouldn’t give him a one star but that’s the least one I can give. I wouldn’t go back to him if he was the only Pulmonologist in the world!! He has no care or compassion and has a smart mouth. Talked down to my husband like he was so stupid. Hey we don’t have to pay someone to allow them to talk to us like we’re so beneath him. I love Carilion Hospital but this man doesn’t belong there and I feel sorry for the elderly people that think they have no choice but to see him. If your looking for a doctor that’s cares and wants to help, then you might look somewhere else. I will say his nurse was wonderful…..

I presume Dr. Leslie’s medical skills are appropriate, but his personal skills leave much to be desired. In synch with a previous review, “Heaven forbid if you ask questions.” Dr. Leslie’s ego and arrogance take umbrage if you ask a simple question, which he then takes as a personal assault. And which he then blows all out of proportion. In addition, he is inconsistent in what he tells his patient from one occasion to the next. So don’t count on what plans he makes today, because when the time comes he may make a complete turnaround and blame you for the misunderstanding. Only dealt with one office staff by phone, and she had difficulty with reality.

Heaven forbid if you ask questions to this textbook narcissistic jerk. He may be good, who knows? I couldn't get past him insulting me calling me "mouth" and "do you ever shut up?" Had a disease for almost 20 years and he wanted to run several tests I have had already done in the past that were not necessary except for his mortgage payment needs. Because HE wasn't the one to diagnose me, and my refusing the ridiculous amounts of tests, he questioned the doctors I had seen, and tests that I had which confirmed my diagnosis saying"How do you know for sure?" Really? All I needed was a pulmonologist since I am new to this area for prescription for medicines that worked. Find someone else unless you are the type to answer "Yes master" and not question anything out of this a-hole's mouth

I'm a Dr. Leslie patient. I went to him with shortness of breath, chest pain and dizziness. I had been hospitalized for these symptoms. He asked for one week to compile my records and it he doesn't call me that I was to call him. One week passed and I received no call. I called, receptionist forwarded me to Dr. Leslie's nurse, she put me on hold. When she came back she said " Dr. Leslie said your by-pap machine was fine and we will see you in a year. " I was stunned. She hung up with no suggestion of breathing problems. I have since been another pulmonologist and my diagnosis is COPD. Be careful.

Bed side manners are terrible. My father had to reschedule appointments due to not being able to get off work and was treated very disrespectful because of that. He isn’t a very organized doctor either. Would not recommend him.

Dr. Leslie,himself,is an outstanding doctor but there are times,when you need a prescription, it is a pain in the backside to get his staff to call your insurance to get it pre-authorized for you and I would hate for my dad to have to leave and go to another doctor like Dr. Leslie due to the fact that his nurse is apparently incompetent in her duties.
