    We have always felt that we are included as an active participant in our care. Always have any/all questions answered. I hope I never meet anyone who has the need for a transplant but should that happen I wouldn't hesitate at recommending UCSF.

    Dr Leard is one of the best that I have ever had the pleasure to deal withthis actually applies to almost all of the Doctors in the Lung Transplant Clinic. She is very very compassionate and willing to spend as much time as necessary to completely answer all of my questions no matter how ridiculous they may be. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone for Transplant related care.
