Dr. Leonard Scott Sole, MD

Very uncaring no bedside manner

I have functional neurological disorder and Dr Sole is the only one I can see in this area because I am poor and only have medicaid. He has done next to nothing, has an attitude and refuses to discuss anything, always in a hurry. I told them a while ago that I was going to have to find another neurologist that specializes in FND and now I find 8 months later, that they refuse to even see me anymore. They say they were insulted because I said tehy don't specialize in FND (which they don't) and today they showed me the door, in a very rude and confrontational way. This is a doctor? Hippocratic oath? Hello? I guess I understand now why he has so many negative reviews here, he's a terrible doctor, totally uncaring and so is his office staff. 0 stars for sure I would recommend to anyone to avoid these people at all costs

10 minute exam. Extremely rude, tried to push sleep study, said I was hypervigilant due to having written my symptoms down instead of wasting 15 minutes billable time explaining them, said I should see a shrink. Told him my sister was a psychologist, and if I was in need of clinical mental health services she would probably have already informed me! Sent nasty Dr. notes to my med files affecting medical treatment by other Drs. As it turned out, diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder years later. He contributed to delayed diagnosis and much needless suffering. In my opinion, this Dr. needs to be monitored.

Did not do appropriate testing in a timely manner

Dr, Sole lacks bedside manner.. I wouldnt wish him on my worst enemy.

Very knowledgeable in field.

Don't even think about wasting you time with Dr. Sole, and if your GP refers you to him, ask for another Doctor. He is good at prescribing meds...that's it. He tries to practice in areas of neurology that he is inexperienced or untrained in - do yourself a favor and go out of town where the pros are at.`

Total lack of concern for patients, ignores symptoms and is rude.The office staff are some of the rudest people I've ever come across especially to be in the area of helping patients on scheduling and insurance.He totally messed up my spinal tap and I ended up in the hospital. After speaking with some of his other patients, he had messed up their spinal taps as well. I do NOT recommend this doctor or the others in the Parkersburg Neurological Assoc. practice!
