Excellent! Dr Leon took time to discuss my case in detail with me and brought in Dr Bhattia to continue the discussion. I had the impression they would have stayed as long as necessary to answer my questions. Exceptional care and seeing the team approach gives me great confidence in the treatment plan.

"Very good" is not a high enough accolade for Dr. Leon and his staff. He is an exceptional physician in every sense of the word. His professionalism and compassion and knowledge are beyond compare. I feel so fortunate to be in his care.

No accolades are good enough to describe Dr Angel Leon!! A true physician in the fullest sense of the word!! He is thoughtful, compassionate, professional and an amazing diagnostician. He is a wonderful listener who -though extremely busy -never seems rushed when we lucky patients are with him!! Emory is so very lucky to have him in their family of health care providers.

I had a recent hospital stay right before Christmas. Dr Leon was able to pull my records from WellStar and advised on some issues that WellStar failed to tell me. He is very thorough with explanations and I always know that I will receive the best care.
