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.

Good guy
I enjoyed seeing Dr. Lebens throughout my childhood and teen years. He was discerning and respectful. I felt he was reasonable in his reccomendations, never pushing meds when they weren't necessary. He was friendly and personable.

I was assigned Dr Lebens as my primary care doctor through my insurance. When I called to make an appointment the receptionist was very short with me and said I need to be approved by Dr Lebens prior to an appointment. I gave her my information and was told they'd get back to me within a week.... almost a month later and no response.

I'm new to the area and called to ask about becoming a new patient. The woman on the phone first said that the doctor isn't taking new patients, but then asked what prompted me to call. Stange, I thought but ok. I explained and was then told that shed pass the note to the doctor and he'd review it. I asked how long I should wait...she said a week and that if he felt he could fit me in they'd give me a call. I'll just sit here then and wait. Thanks for your help.

My daughter called office three times to try and get an appointment. Every time she was told they were not accepting new patients even though we were assigned their office via our insurance company and receptionist kept telling her they would check with the doctor and call her back. A return phone call was never made. Very disappointed at lack of courteousness.

Outstanding doctor, outstanding human being. He is literally the very best. My family has been going to Dr. Lebens for 15 years and not one of us at any time has had anything but positive, kind things to say about him.

I have been going to Dr. Lebens for over twenty years. I feel very fortunate that he was accepting new patients at the time I started seeing him. I appreciate the time that he takes with me each time that I visit. Also, I especially the fact that I can call in the morning and possibly be seen the same day!
