My brothers have went to him for years. I used to go to him. We never had a problem with him. He always listened to you and if you had a medicine that wasn't working for you he will keep trying till he finds something that will work. He explains himself well if you have any questions. I couldn't see him upstairs when I saw him at Blue sky behavioral health due to a medical problem so he seen me in a room downstairs. He was always friendly and telling me to have a nice day and that he would see me the next time.

Snappy and slightly rude. This is not the way to treat mental patients. You should be able to be comfortable with your doctor.

My son started seeing Dr. Lester when he was 9 years old he is going to be 21 in 5 months and has seen Dr. Lester for all these years, We have resently moved to Houston, and I pray I can find a Dr. at least half as good as Dr. Lester. He has saved my son many times. He has helped my son beable to learn how to cope with the world and I appriciate him and his staff greatly!
