Very pleasant and professional

5 out of 5 stars

Dr. Leff is awesome! He has performed 3 surgeries on me/family members & he is always kind, courteous, & thorough. He always makes sure you understand what's going on and what the treatment/procedure outcome will be. Luckily this time I won't be needing an outpatient procedure!

Dr Leff is awesome and I have seen him for 4 years to follow me for rectal cancer. He is compassionate and warm, answers questions, always positive and encouraging. My oncology team has been fantastic and I can't praise them enough for getting me through the sickest time in my life. I sing their praises and Midstate's.

Everyone that I came in contact with, was amazing. From the aids to the nurses to transport, to the MRI people, to the surgery department. Everybody was great. We had some laughs. We can make fun of things which kept the mood light. Despite the circumstances of surgery. I was very happy with everybody I met.

From the front desk to the consultation with Dr. Leff, my visit surpassed expectations. Staff was professional and friendly, putting me at ease. Dr Leff took time to know me and the reason for the visit. He was thorough and supportive in his initial diagnosis. The result is that he has my trust and gratitude. Thank you!

There were 7 inches of snow on the ground. When I arrived, the staff was there greeted me cheerfully and continued with my care plan as we first discussed. Great job by everybody there today.
