Been a patient for 10+ years and have had multiple procedures and surgeries with Dr Leitman. He and his staff are all the best!
Professional
Smart, savvy-kind
Practical approach with common sense feedback.
Dr. Leitman is an excellent physician and I would recommend him to anyone who needs him.
He is the best. Was seen on the same day that I called. I really appreciate it. I did wait a long time but I didn't care because he fit me in that day.
Great doctor, and I am treated well.
Terrific Doctor and staff
Answered all my questions clearly. Gave advice when I asked for it.
Was just in for a shot in my knee. In 12 days surgery on my shoulder. Dr Leittman has 100% of my faith in his surgical abilities!!
