Knowledgeable with good bedside manner
Easy to talk to and on time
Overall very pleasant experience.
Awesome job!
I was a little anxious but the care at the FSSC was exceptional at every step of the way- from the front desk to recovery.. Dr Leitman himself is a compassionate surgeon and accommodated me for my knee repair very quickly. Thank you to you and your team.
Very knowledgeable and straight to the point. I appreciate that very much!
Everything went great. Make an appointment was easy. And schedule me right next day. Office is clean and stuff is welcoming. Dr.Leitman was very friendly and nice. Explain all my concern. I'm very grateful. Thank you.
Very thorough and knowledgeable
Love his professionalism.
He care, listens, and is kind. Thank you Dr. Leitman!
