Dr. Leyton always listens to what is going on with my back. Appointments in the beginning ran late, but probably because he was giving them the same care I was getting. Now that my accident isn't fresh, I don't need as much time. We have found what works. We mostly just make sure there are no bad side effects starting and refill meds. Every 12 to 18 months we do a medial branch block. As of October 2025, he no longer does virtual appointments.
I've had 2 failed back surgeries. He focused on the pain and treatment based off of what I felt and what he could see in the MRIs. I HATE epidural steroid injections. I haven't done those in years. He made it nice and easy. Of course, there was pain but he explained everything so you weren't surprised on what was happening or getting ready hurt during the procedure. His FIVE star front office and to treatment assistant that was i'm guessing she's a nurse were all very professional.
The staff is incredibly gracious and kind, even when they are extremely busy. Dr. Leyton takes time to speak with you, and goes over different treatment options rather than just assuming everything has been tried. Four rather than five stars only because the waits have been long, but I think that only happens because the whole staff genuinely cares about each patient.
This time I waited 1h 40min. He finally signed in from his home. Ive had 16ortho surgeries including recent 6th back surgeries. He wanted old files etc and he “couldn’t help me for 3-4wks”. Never again
Dr. Leyton is worth the wait! He takes the time to listen to you as a patient and works overtime to help each patient. With the dedication he has to his patients, he can run behind. I schedule early in the day appointments, and know there might be a delay. With that understanding, Dr. Leyton has been an amazing medical provider. He really has helped me through significant pain and recover over the last ten years. I would not be able to function daily with out his help!
I made an appointment with Leyton in February 2022 It's now August 2022. I have chronic pain and arthritis throughout my body -bone on bone in both hips and fingers.. I have yet to receive one pain pill or anything from this doctor . Now he wants me to wait another three to four weeks so just maybe possibly he might give me something for my tremendous pain .If you know what chronic pain is , you know what I'm going through . I wouldn't recommend this doctor for a hang nail.
Always late and isn’t very profesdional
I have been seeing Dr .Leighton for apx 4 years for severe back pain after multiple surgeries . I highly recommend him. Listens to my needs and is very responsive to my issues. Very personable and sincere .You do your part and he does his. Awesome staff as well. He does all he can and then some .
His office is TERRIBLE. They NEVER answer the phone nor call back. They do not send orders for the their requested drug tests but demand it be done in 24 hours. Patients waiting for drug test at facility but no order from Dr. Leyton’s office. Takes weeks to return a call. Took 20 days to fill a late prescription even though calls and requests were sent form the pharmacy 5 minutes. He has LONG wait times, hours and hours later than expected even for Telehealth visits. This office staff are rude and inconsiderate or the needs ... read more
