  Pill Mill - He almost killed my friend and he doesn..., Feb 6, 2012

He almost killed my friend and he doesn't have the courtesy to return my calls! My good friend Dave is hooked on pills and this guy just keeps dishing them out. He prescribed 120 Xanax plus 2 refills knowing Dave is addicted! Yesterday the paramedics took Dave to the hospital for an overdose. The only person in the office I've been allowed to speak to is Maggie. She was rude and had no concern with stopping the pills or finding a solution, just concerned with trying to cover their butt with double talk.
  Staff does not call to alert patients of problems. ..., Jan 19, 2012

After 5 years as a patient, I made one late payment. The payment was in excess of $100.00 despite my usual $40.00 co-pay. Maybe Dr Leon's staff didn't submit to Aetna. I paid anyway. Months later, they refused to renew a refill and told me that I needed to pay cash for appointments now. They never contacted me about this. Rather, they let me run out of medication and then refused to refill. I had to miss classes that day and find a new GI. My GP was nice enough to authorize enough medication over the phone (on good faith that my labs had been good lately, which they were) until the visit with my new GI. That was lucky, many GPs won't do that, and I am currently stuck with ASU's GPs. Dr Leon's actions were negligent and unethical. I am looking into what legalities this may violate, and will press charges. To this date, Dr Leon had shown himself to be a fine physician, but this incident is unforgivable. His staff had always been a little dodgy. One of his staff tole me she would talk to Dr Leon to see if he would use a little discretion in this instance. I doubt that she did.
  poor service, inaccurate information, disregard for patient values or input..., Dec 18, 2011

Dr. McLemore treated me for anal condyloma. I believe she recklessly destroyed a lot of healthy tissue. She cut me up and burned me really bad and she became irritated when I complained about my pain and (temporary) disfigurement. McLemore took a large biopsy from an area I believe was healthy before the operation. It took me 2 months to recover from the biopsy and for my anus to start to regain a non-disfigured appearance. The biopsy also caused me uncontrollable pain. The biopsy turned out to have no clinical value; the biopsy result was not relevant to future treatment decisions. I was left with a small, visible scar on my anal margin from the biopsy. Dr. McLemore gave me unrealistic expectation for recovery time and pain levels. I beleive McLemore behaved with negligence and I have asked for a review of my case. McLemore seemed cold an uncaring toward me most times I saw her. McLemore insisted on not giving me any say in how the procedure was done in my case, but she refused to apologize or admit wrongdoing when her preferred method went wrong. I believe that if you have a negative outcome, McLemore will be cold and uncaring toward you. I believe she will blame you and say it was your fault for signing all the paperwork. And there is more paperwork than you will believe. Most of the paperwork I signed was immediately before the operation and this also makes me suspicious. Obviously, I don't recommend this doctor.
  very unimpressed and not going to return to see her..., Nov 23, 2011

I had to wait over 45 minutes for my appointment. As other reviewers noted, I didn't feel like she wanted to hear what I had to say. I would constantly be interrupted. She offered services like laser hair removal and a facial, but it sounded like a sales pitch, even though she said she doesn't make money off of the facials. I liked the staff. But I will definitely look into another doctor in the future.
