Patient Reviews
Jan 28, 2020
I rarely post reviews, but I felt like I needed to for Dr. Letson. I’ve never met such a nice and caring doctor. Just wow! I loved him and his staff. He was very straightforward and explained things in a way for me to understand. He even pulled out my previous xray and MRI results that were taken at another facility and explained what I was looking at. I really left there feeling like I was in good hands and that he genuinely cared. In my opinion, you won’t find a better doctor. I highly recommend Dr. Letson!
