Dr. Salomone is an Endocrinologist. For those who do not know, they are internal medicine doctors who primarily deal with diabetes and thyroid problems. I have been a type II diabetic for 10 years now. I've been on insulin for the past 5 years, but last summer, my diabetes went spiraling out of control, so I was referred to an Endocrinologist.
I chose Dr. Salomone because she was associated with Baptist Hospital and also because she of her office location. I am so happy she's the doctor I chose. She is absolutely wonderful! She has one of the best bedside manners I have ever seen. When she walks in the room, it's like I'm the only patient that exists. She takes the time to listen to me and actually hears what I'm telling her. She explains things in detail to me and in ways I can understand. She is also open to any and all questions I have and never rushes me. I know that she genuinely cares for my well-being and that really means a lot. I feel 100% comfortable putting my full trust in her!
It took a few times seeing her before we got my diabetes back under total control because she tried me on a couple of oral medications to go along with my insulin (which I ended up being allergic too, unfortunately). Then she had to adjust my insulin to the right levels. I am happy to say that since I began seeing her, my A1C has been below 7.0. Before seeing her, it was always over 8.0. I have definitely seen results with her!
The office is very clean and modern. The waiting area has comfortable seating and is very esthetically pleasing. It makes being in a doctor's office not so bad. =)
The staff here are also wonderful. I have yet to encounter one person who didn't have a smile on their face. The front office staff... the assistants... all of them just wonderful.
I generally hate to think about going to a doctor's appointment. But I never seem to mind coming here.
If you need an Endocrinologist, I cannot recommend Dr. Leslie Salomone highly enough! I know you will not be disappointed with your choice to see her! read more
