Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Lea is fantastic! I had DBS surgery and could not be happier. She gave me my life back. I HIGHLY recommend her and her team.

Dr Lea has always and continues to work with me to best manage my neurological issues I constantly deal with daily. I know she is simply a phone call away in event of issues that may come up due to my multiple medical conditions. I trust her judgment and she is very thorough at each visit with me. I can't say enough good things about her without writing a very long essay. I hope she is at ochsner for several years to come....thank you Dr Lea. You're the best. 10 stars!!!!

Dr. Lea is committed, honest and extremely thorough and smart. My husband and I both liked her even though the diagnosis was not what was hoped for.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Lea?
It took months to get an appointment. At my last appointment, 3rd visit, I had a list of questions/concerns. She told me we would not be able to get through all of my questions in 20 minutes. When she felt the appointment was over she got up and walked out. She did not say good-bye, summarize the appointment, or discuss the next steps/plan of action. A staff person came in and discussed the next steps. I did not feel like she cared or was concerned about my health issues. I felt like a number.
