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.

Terrible bedside manner, also barely looked me in the eyes during my visit. When I visited him he was a part of a group practice at Presbyterian, and it now looks like he’s been downgraded to a doc-in-the-box.

This doc isn't for everyone if you're used to being coddled or want someone to give you the warm fuzzies. He's straightforward and incredibly direct. I prefer that but can see where that turns some people off. If you're overweight, he's going to flat out tell you and it won't be a cheerleading moment even if you're not wanting to talk about your weight. He's quick, efficient and detailed. I fully trust him. Just don't expect to be babysat and you'll be golden.

Extremely poor bedside manor. Has zero interest in hearing about any health issues. Feels like your an imposition to him plus he seems miserable.

Very good doctor. Some people complain he is stern, but sometimes we need that. Its like a stern parent or teacher. Just because we are adults don't mean that we do what we suppose to. Sometimes hand holding and coddling is the worst thing you can get. So if you can get over his personality, he is a very thorough doctor.

Dr. Leonard Behr is a bitter old man that should just retire. Does not care about his patients at all.

Dr Behr was condescending and judgmental with my wife when she visited him for the first time. Needless to say she won't be returning.
