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. Legg is one of the best if not the best in his field as he has been able to help me with severe spinal pain after being crushed on a work related injury I would recommend him to anybody.

Thomas Cathcart
referred from a neurologist, after approximately a 10 day wait for contact from his office, I called him. I was scheduled for an appointment 12 days from contact, fortunately I was not dealing with acute discomfort. Dr. Legg personally greeted me in the waiting room, he directed me to his office and we reviewed my symptoms using a model spine, and discussed his review of my MRI. He then directed me to the treatment area, had my injection in my back and was out his office all in about 15 minutes. Would I recommend Dr. Legg, you bet I would, to anybody that will stand still and listen. No discomfort today, looking forward to the golf course.

Let me just start by saying this, Dr. Legg is amazing! The diagnosis I received was a very rare disorder known as CRPS(RSD). Dr Legg ran some tests, asked several questions & was deeply concerned & explained everything so my husband & I understand the diagnosis & the treatment. I needed a Lower extremity- lumbar sympathetic block. He nailed it! I am now walking without the use of a wheelchair, crutches, AFO & boot. Thank you so much to you & your team! I’m doing great.

I was impressed by Dr. Legg's compassion, honesty and commitment to advising what was best for me. I was referred for a spinal injection. Instead of automatically doing that, he looked at my history, questioned and listened carefully about my symptoms and concerns, and then offered frank, professional advice. He not only decided the injection was not warranted at this time, but reassured me with explanations of why, and wrote a general prescription so I could move forward without drugs and invasive procedures, even though they would send me elsewhere.

I’m a new patient of Dr. Legg, and my first consultation was on Tuesday of this week. I decided to see Dr. Legg after suffering with chronic pain in my lower back that I have been suffering with for more than a year. I had my first procedure on my back after going through all my options with Dr. Legg. I have to say it was truly remarkable. I left the suite with absolutely no pain! Dr. Legg is my new saving grace! Dr. Legg is compassionate, understanding, and provides you with information to include different options that are best for me. The staff went over and above what was expected. Thank you Dr. Legg!

I have seen Dr. Legg for my chronic back pain and have had great success. He performed a radial frequency ablation on my lower back and I have finally felt relief. Dr. Legg is kind, compassionate and genuinely cares for the health and well being of his patients. I highly recommend him.
