Reviews for Plano, TX Family Medicine Doctor Dr. Shade Lester

Dr Lester and staff are awesome! More

Dr Lester was great. Very down to earth and honest. More

Dr. Lester was patient, kind, and knowledgeable. I’m very pleased with the level of care and time she set aside for my appointment. Going in for a yearly physical is NOT my favorite activity and after skipping a couple of years (I blame COVID!) Dr. Lester did not make me feel guilty and instead had a positive attitude, and provided support in getting me back on track with routine preventative care. Dr. Lester listened to my concerns, offered sound and attainable lifestyle advice and wrote referrals for all the standard check-ups recommended for my demographic. Thank you Dr. Lester!show more More

I called early in the morning week of thanksgiving feeling extremely ill. I was able to get in with Dr. Shade Lester in 30 mins due to the flexibility of being able to be seen at various locations.

Very knowledgeable and efficient. More

I really enjoyed my visit. She is an excellent doctor and really listened to my concerns without me ever feeling rushed. : ) More

Dr. Lester was very informative, polite, & amazing! More

My husband and I went to have a yearly exam, he by the doctor he seen, never asked, or checked him for a colon screen. A major killer in men. The doctor I seen, was an such an a hurry, and wanted to push depression medication, because of having fibro, never looked at the sores I had on my hands and inside nose. And blood work for both of us was for cholesterol. Not diabetes, that runs in my family. I don't like rushed doctors, you don't have time to stop listen to your patients, and because of this visit, it's not like I can go to another doctor since I am only allowed 1 yearly woman exam a year. The woman exam I received was exactly what you would give a child, reflexes, temp, and blood pressure, and talking about depression, if I was or was not. I am not. My body is telling me something is wrong, I just couldn't get you to stop and listen, knowing you are rushing me so you can get to your next patient. More

I love her approach she made me fill comfortable listened to my concerns and offered an approach that im willing to try. I really believe im in good hands with Dr Lester this was my first visit More

The visit was very good. Dr. Lester explained the propose of the visit and all procedures & how she is going to follow up. More

She was very caring, easy to talk to and concerned about your overall health, mental and physically. I hadn't been to a doctor in years but she made my visit worth it. I'm so glad I found her.. More

Amazing Dr.! The staff and nurses were very friendly and attentive. Doctor did more than just a checkup but explained why we were checking certain things based on my demographics rather than just checking things based off of a generic visit. Highly recommend and will definitely use as my primary care physician from now on! More

She was very nice and friendly, very attentive and asked relevant questions. More

Excellent Service - Dr Lester is very personable and concerned with my health condition. More

Super sweet and understanding. More

First visit went well. Very good listener and communicator with a plan to resolve an ongoing issue. More

Got a chance to meet my primary care doctor for the annual exam. More

She was very informative and kind More

Dr Lester was amazing. Her bedside manner and listening to my concerns made me feel very comfortable. Also her explaing everything to me in great detail was amazing. More

My experience at Village Health Partners is grand. I had a lot of fears that dealt with my health due to my parents death. My doctor, Dr. Shada Lester reassured my mind and conducted the proper medical treatment I needed and now I have a heavy load lifted to find out I am healthy. I have no worries and my trust and faith with the clinic is hands on. I thank her so much and the facility also. Thank you and keep up the good work. More

Dr. Lester looked me right in the eyes and listened. She was quick to refer a specialist when asked. I felt very comfortable with the office in general. AVAILABLE: • Digital Records/Communication/Scheduling (Healow app) • On-site lab More

She was great! She was very thorough and answered all of my questions. I’m so glad that I found a good doctor! More

I liked her insight and she was nice and informative. More

Let me start off by stating I have been a patient here for at least 15+ years. I'm 23 now. If I were to have written this review 10 years ago, my rating would be 5 stars. However, I have watched this office spiral downward over time. I used to be able to come to my appointments 15 minutes early, fill out whatever paperwork necessary, and then be seen right at (or close to) my appointment time. I gave this office three chances before I wrote this review. I understand that doctors run behind, patients like to talk, new medical discoveries happen in the exam rooms. I get it. But when this is a continuous issue not only encountered by myself, but other frustrated patients in your waiting room, clearly there is an issue. Today I had an appointment with Dr. Lester at 9am. I arrived at 8:50. Filled out 4 pages of paperwork. Gave it to the check in girl before 9:00. Then...9:20...9:30...9:40 comes around. I heard two people check in and say "I have an appointment with Dr. Lester" and get taken back before me. Finally, 9:45 I get up and ask the girl how long it will be before I get taken back because it's 45 minutes past my appointment time. She tells me I am "next in line but there are 3 patients already in with Dr. Lester and that I will have to wait for a room." I opted to reschedule for another date. If there were 3 patients before me, I'd probably end up being seen an hour an a half later like my previous 2 visits. I work in the medical industry as well, where we pride ourselves on not inconveniencing our patients because we are in the business of serving them and ensuring they receive 5 star treatment from the minute they walk in the door to the minute they leave. My experience today resembles the quality of service you receive at an emergency room where you have to wait 2 hours for heart palpitations. Absolutely ridiculous. Staff, book your appointments accordingly. Not because you want to triple or quadruple book a doctor at one specific time for a heavy influx of traffic or income. Adding to this, the check in girls should either be paid more or be replaced. How hard is it to smile or be friendly? You are representing your facility and giving off the impression that we are inconveniencing you, when in reality it's the opposite. Also, if you expect us to be on time for our appointments then we expect to be seen at the time we scheduled. Be accountable in the same way you expect your patients to be. I LOVE Dr. Lester, and this review is in no way a rating on her quality of care. The way things are run on the front end need to be revised and restructured because this is not how a doctors office should be run. More

My first visit with Dr. Lester, as a new patient, was wonderful and more than I had anticipated for an annual physical visit. I appreciate her holistic approach to medicine and her desire for her patients to be completely well; mind, body and spirit. She is patient, intuitive and a great listener. I think I have finally found a PCP that I will stick with. My first visit with Dr. Lester, as a new patient, was wonderful and more than I had anticipated for an annual physical visit.

The best doctor around town - I have been seeing Dr. Moon for the past 15 years now and he is simply the best. I see him for everything, from a cold to my anxiety, cholesterol and annual physical checkup. He is so thoroughly and has the best bedside manner. He takes the time to listen to you and your concerns. I never feel rushed in his office. More

Some of the nicest poeple, Thank You to Kim and Dr.Lester. More

I really like Dr Lester. Not only is she very nice, but she actually looks for the root of the problem rather than just automatically prescribing meds. She talk to you about other items that may be resulting in your symptoms. She is by no means a bit-medication, but she knows that is not the only way to feel better. Her staff has always been great. I highly recommend her. More

Dr Lester is great! She cares and is focused on planning a way to a healthier you. Her staff is friendly and efficient. I definitely recommend this team. More

Dr. Lester is a wonderful person and physician who took the time to understand my medical history and help "risk stratify" me. It really helped me understand how I should best focus my efforts to keep myself safe and healthy in the years ahead. As a physician myself, I would like to believe I know good medicine when I see it - and I'm so glad that I ended up with Dr. Lester as my doctor. More

The doctor took time to educate me on the areas that I needed improvement. You don't run into doctors like her that often. More

My family and I are truly blessed to have a competent, caring and compassionate physician as Dr. FolaShade Lester to manage our health care. Dr. Lester always takes the time to listen attentively to me and expresses genuine concern for me and my family's health issues. Dr. Lester not only explains her diagnosis to me, but she also works out a health care plan so that as the patient, I too will bear responsibility for my recovery and future wellness. on occasion, have had to wait longer than the usual 10 to 15 minutes. However, that does not bother me, for I know I will get the same quality of care as the patient ahead of me. More

Awesome Doctor! - Absolutely love this doctor and the office visit I encountered. Just found my new pcp More
