Reviews
During my consultation prior to my procedure I found Dr Leech, calm, informative, helpful and reassuring. He gave me full details regarding, the benefits of the procedure, the procedure and the risks with the procedure.
At the start of the procedure he put me at ease and gave little updates during the procedure. At the end of the procedure he was able to reassure me that the procedure was a success and shared images of the port cath in place.
After the procedure and after some recovery he came and spoke to me and confirmed the success and gave details for after care and details for follow up in case of any issues.
I had Portacath inserted and then removed by Dr Leech and was truly impressed with his professionalism, attention to his patients needs. Having a surgical procedure is always a stressful experience but Dr Leech helped to ease the nervousness by explaining every step in a calm and consistent manner. Great thanks to his secretary for her kindness, efficiency and speediness, and to the entire medical team.
I was very anxious about the procedure (insertion of portacath) but Dr Leech and his team were extremely thorough in their explanation and put me completely at ease prior, during and after. I felt totally relaxed throughout and appreciated the time they spent with myself and my husband with any questions and queries we had.
Dr Leech's secretary was was so kind to call the following day to check in on me knowing how anxious I was beforehand.
Dr Leechwas the total embodiment of the proper surgeon. He gave a detailed description of whathe was intending to do and answered all of my questions. He was patient, thorough, and very understanding.
The actual operation for a portacath went by without a hitch. I am really glad that he was my surgeon.
Knowledgeable, compassionate and reassuring, Dr Leech was brilliant throughout the whole procedure.
His expertise and good humour put me at ease in what would otherwise have been an anxious situation, and as a result I felt well supported and genuinely cared for by Dr Leech and his team.
