Patient Reviews
Feb 23, 2020
Dr. Leya was absolutely terrific. I had a mitral valve repair in 1992, which was before he became my cardiologist. That repair lasted 20 years. Dr. Leya became my cardiologist in 2010. In 2012 I had a second repair guided by Dr. Leya. My second mitral vave surgery was done successfully by a surgeon at Loyola highly recommended by Dr. Leya, Dr. Mahmoud Bakhos, with a similar, successful outcome. Dr. Leya was encouraging, invested in me as a person and a wonderful healthcare profesdsional who was always accessible to answer my many questions and concerns. He is the best.
