"Horrible experience. Doctor and office staff don’t really care about you at all, you are just another number to them. This doctor has missed or been very late for multiple zoom appointments. Doctor is extremely difficult to get ahold of. The only number she gives you is for the main office out of Vacaville, and when you call, you just sit on hold forever.

They told me the doctor was “all booked up” and it would be weeks before I could get another appointment. Needless to say, I will be finding another doctor. "

That was until I found out that Leslie McDaniel, MD contacted my boss verbally to tell my boss how unqualified I was to work with my client. Then she proceeded to write him a very long email after nothing had happened from their verbal conversation. I am very qualified to work with my client and have been in this line of work for the last ten plus years not to mention the fact I"
