Dr. Leslie Andrew Prechtel, MD

Terrible bedside manners He does not listen or just I say actually hear any comments and questions from me as patient or my medically trained daughter who is my healthcare advocate champion listed at Novant Health Huntersville location. First time experiencing any doctor like him. Disrespect and never allowed conversation as needed with my daughter out of state on phone in patient room. Very abrupt dies not need to ever be working anywhere with the public and especially sick patients. Ordering nurses around like they are dumb. A “know it all” but prescribed wrong med. my primary threw the bottle away when I saw him today and questioned why it was even being considered to administer to me in ER. All other staff in ER and on the floors are great from hospital stays and ER visits. There is a major problem. His diagnosis in beginning was way off the cuff and disturbed me making my blood pressure and body very anxious. He kept saying I am very busy seeing other patients and why are in… here. I was critical with extremely high BP a mild concussion and extremely painful and red swollen legs and feet. At 81 yrs old A very respected community of Huntersville active lady please get rid of this person has no patience with pt or patients advocate. Thank goodness a nurse named Brittany helped my daughter and me with questions and informing during the thunder storm visit with very restless, inconsiderate ER physician I have never commented on any medical staff member in my long 81 years Thanks Let’s keep our hospital here in Huntersville free of such animal like staff like him.
