Patient Reviews
Sep 23, 2021
My experience with Dr Leon was the exact opposite of the one review I see here. He listens well, answered all my questions. He gave full explanations. While in the hospital late at night after a heart attack he was called because they may have had to put a stent in my artery and if they had to they would have had to put me on dialysis and he immediatly came up to the hospital to ensure that everything went well and that I was comfortable with what was happening and he gave full explanations of all that was going on. I trust him. He works with Dr Patchett who is my primary kidney doctor, but was on call that night and was at the hospital, in my room, soon after the hospital docs called him.
