Ultimate professional.
Non better. Really going to miss him , but he truly deserves a wonderful retirement. He’s really help me with my retina issues. I owe my sight to him!!
I have been under Dr Lean’s care for decades. So very sorry to learn of his much deserved retirement. I am a Type 1 Diabetic with severe Retinopathy. I owe the fact that I still have my eyesight to him. He will be missed terribly.
He’s the best, by any measurement!
It was an absolute pleasure to have been treated by dr. Lean. We are very thankful for his knowledge, thoroughness, respect, kindness and care. We are very sad to see Dr. Lean go. Very grateful.
He is an excellent doctor, my family and myself have been seeing him for decades. So pleased with his work.
Best Retinal Specialist ever. Been going to him since 2000. He's working on my problem. And I'm hopeful. Can't say enough good things.
I am very sorry to hear you are fully retiring, but my reasons are purely selfish, so I will just say you are probably the best Doctor I know. I could go on and on as I think I have been patient about 25 years. Let me just say all the best to you and your family and may the Good Lord bless and keep you.
Very knowledgeable, explains condition well. He seems to really care about his patients!
Great Doctor. Very thorough, efficient and kind
