Timothy Leeburton's Online Review Report Card

The Admin staff is has just as bad an attitude as him. Came there for a torn ligament and even beyond the staffs rudeness he tried to gaslight me into thinking there was nothing wrong. Even though I had, had several X-rays and an MRI to confirm, with another Dr. Then after yet another X-ray, he begins his "explanation" while talking down to me that nothings wrong and then quickly back tracks as he realized there is actually a tear and then coldly jumps into my option to do nothing. Keep in mind I have had this issue for years and have been going through multiple Drs to get it fixed. I keep my cool during the appointment. He has no bedside matter, isn't even generally friendly and this is the person I'm supposed to trust to do surgery on me.... I'll pass. I will getting another Dr and will never go to the office again.

My hands still goes numb from time to time and I randomly drop things out of nowhere. He did both my hands at the same time in one day smh I couldn’t do anything not even use the restroom correctly or wash my body because both my hands were wrapped up in bandages. Then his staff left snitches in my hand that I had to get out myself. He’s not the doctor you really want to see. But if you do you’re entering at your own risk.

Seemed like a decent doctor at first. Day of surgery, he demonstrated a complete disregard for any concerns my wife or myself had. After surgery, he never did any range of motion checks, and displayed a total disregard for how my arm was healing. Then, 9 months later I find out that he had improperly billed almost everything and I am still dealing with it. Despite verifying with the office, at each visit, which insurance should be billed! Bedside manner sores a 0 with me. I'd trust the V.A. before him again.

Had surgery on index finger, came out worse than going in. He said I will never have the movement I had before surgery. Looking elsewhere.

Went in with a finger injury due to a kickball jamming my pinkie. The ER had splinted it. Dr Leeburton said it was not done correctly and after putting me in another splint and basically saying not to move it at all...which I didn't I came back after 4 weeks the finger was still messed up. My friend is a pain doctor in another state and was like you have this type of injury and it needs surgery to repair. I asked Dr Lee about this and his answer was, "Oh I don't like to do that kind of surgery"...I was like what....you are a hand surgeon and you don't like to do finger surgery? That seems ridiculous.

Sadly would put a zero star. I want to him for my elbow.and he say so many thing that was wrong with it and say he didn't know what wrong with it and he didn't even know my elbow. fractured. ya I had half cast. I rather deal with the pain. And not get answers.

Had a consultation with Dr. Leeburton after sustaining a boxer's fracture. They were busy, but his staff didn't make me feel rushed or hurried. When the doc came in he immediately apologized for being late (which I didn't even feel he was). It made me feel like he valued my time. Dr. Leeburton laid out the options available to me and not once did I feel I was being rushed, or forced into a decision. Even after I made my decision, he waited a few moments, just to be sure I was confident and satisfied with my choice. His office staff is also very responsive. I had questions and one of the nurses called me back within a couple hours!

I went to see him about tendonitis thumb surgery. He found a bone spur and said I had to have general anesthesia . I said I want sedation so he said like a MACK. Yes so that was the agreement . Didn't feel right about the upcoming surgery. I'm diabetic so need a early appt. I get 11 AM arrive at 9. No this won't do The day before surgery I gets all to arrive at 8:30 surgery at 10:30. What? Thirty minutes difference . Then asked if I'd have to go to recovery. Yes! Why it's sedation. ?? Got to hospital and they give me an EKG !! I'm not having general anesthesia-----SEDATION! The nurse argues I have to have IV in hand and.i said no! They lied every sentence, scare tactics, and BS. I cancelled and walked out!

As always my experience with Memorial was stellar start to finish. Dr. LeeBurton took the time to explain things. I had carpal release surgery performed. The chosen procedure was explained and performed perfectly. All staff members were outstanding. A well oiled machine. I can thing of nothing to improve. Thank you for fixing up my hand !!! My experience was 100 % positive.

He is a kind person. However, his staff is much more caring and friendly than him. His bedside manner is horrible. At each appointment after surgery, he spent seconds talking to me and didn’t even look at my hand where he performed the surgery. I have a lot more pain in my hand now than before surgery. Furthermore, my hand is weaker and still swollen at one year post op. This doctor does not care about his patients.
