Incredibly nice demeanour and engagement. Good listener and very supportive in helping me make the right decision. The procedure was uncomfortable and throughout Mr Leo ensured that I was okay and constantly checking on me.
I recently had an anorectal physiology study with Mr Alex Leo and my experience was excellent. He was very reassuring, explained what the procedure involved and was clear with his instructions to ensure the procedure went smoothly.
Mr Leo and his team were very professional with great bedside manner and clearly explained the procedure beforehand to ensure I was aware of what to expect.
Dr Leo is an excellent doctor. He shows a high degree of knowledge, professionalism and is very gentle in his procedures.
Mr Alex Leo is extremely professional and attentive. He never leaves anything to chance and listens carefully to my concerns. He has been treating me for almost two years, and I find him to be an excellent person both professionally and on a human level. Also during yesterday’s follow-up, he was very thorough and reassured me that everything is progressing in the best possible way.
Alex is very knowledgeable and friendly and explained things well. I have ocd which makes me more anxious and Alex was super supportive and reassuring and ensured I was well informed and confident about the process and procedure
Mr Leo was extremely considerate and took time to diagnose and explain my condition and the options for treatment. I appreciated his professional but relaxed manner. Most recently I visited for post operative tests and these were very reassuring.
Mr Leo was very professional and made me feel very comfortable. He explained what the test was and how it was going to be performed clearly and answered all of our questions
