Patient Reviews
Jun 17, 2026
Dr LeFave listened patiently and intently. He took his time studying previous test and decided to run one more. Afterward, he clearly explained what he could do to help me. After surgery, he visited me every morning in the hospital. Although I had some complications, between the exceptional nursing staff at Women’s Hospital and Dr LeFave, everything resolved fairly quickly. This made me feel safe and cared for. Something else we love about dealing with Dr. LeFave is the fact that he does not use a calling center. When you call his office, a polite human being actually answers the phone. If you leave a message, they call you back quickly. This made pre and post surgery less stressful as we could get questions answered quickly. I feel so much better after my surgery. I truly feel like Dr LeFave saved my life.
