Patient Reviews
Oct 28, 2024
Doctor Lester has been my PCP for nearly 25 years. He has always been friendly, attentive, and in tune with my medical needs. He's seen me through shingles and arthritis, and lots of other stuff along the way. I can't imagine a more satisfying relationship with a medical provider.
