“I would like to start out by making it known I fully agree with Dr. Leslie’s other patients views. Now getting into why I feel the desire to say a few good words for her. I have acquired quite a rap sheet of injuries starting around (age 12) with cervical fracture along with temporary paralysis from the neck down. Worse then that was an injury that has “plagued” me ever since (age 14) in which I tore a very significant amount of tissues throughout my thigh/groin/abdominal region.
It took seeing countless therapist’s and time to finally find a strategy that worked to remedy my symptoms. About 4 years ago I managed to get a handle on it via physical therapy twice a week and massage every other week for a year straight. Both of those therapist were very talented in “listening to human anatomy”!
I am at the moment seeing Dr. Leslie pertaining for an auto accident. The accident took a huge amount of that hard work and washed it away. Felt like I was going to have to do it all over again! Boy was I mistaken, all it took was the first visit for me to realize this road to recovery would be much shorter under her watch. I feel the reason is because she has this natural ability, along with intense level of focus. It’s like as if she has a 6th sense. She is very open minded and determined with prognoses. One of my favorite things is her versatility, she is very keen on thinking outside the box and she has so many ways of treating symptoms. I don’t feel it is fair for her to be labeled as just a chiropractor, when she treats you with so many methods.
Very naturally talented individual. Thank You Dr. Leslie!”
