I did not have a good experience with Dr. Lesko. He performed an arthroscopic surgery on my knee to scrape a torn meniscus. After surgery he explains everything to my family(who hadn't been at my previous appointments) but didn't even see me to tell me the surgery was unsuccessful. Nobody on staff let me know. They left it up to my family. When I asked about it the following day they just said that he's too busy to talk to patients after surgery. The nurse than read his MEDICAL notes to me and told me that basically I have a really bad knee. At the followup appointment he was already to do a complete knee replacement. I went for a second opinion and really only needed a partial knee replacement. (which was very successful) There were a lot of things that made me uneasy with Dr. Lesko.

Dr. Lesko is wonderful. As is his staff...They are caring and I never had a bad experience ever. He has done several surgeries on me . My ACL repair I had to have I would have trusted to no one else....I have personally seen how he treats his patients in a hospital environment and highly recommend this physician...He is gifted with sports type injuries and very caring. And his staff is outstanding....

I saw Dr. Lesko three times for a broken foot. He was arrogant, condescending, and rude. The 2nd visit he spent more time complaining abut the health care reform and Obama than looking at my foot. The third visit he appeared very annoyed that I had called several times that week regarding a buzzing in my foot. When I came in he made reference to my phone calls as if they were a bother to him. His instructions to me were to put a shoe on start walking through it. I saw a new doctor the following week at which time a fracture was diagnosed exactly where I was telling Dr. Lesko it hurt. He never did follow up xrays or MRI to see if additional damage was done. He tried to tell me I was developing RSD, reflex sympathy dysdrophy, in other words it was all in my head! In my opinion he was an idiot and I feel he has a problem with women. I will tell everyone not to go to hime EVER.
