    The Doctor is very professional all the time, and with excellent communication with me. He explained everything perfectly to me and took away all my doubts. Excellent service. As I always have it from all UCSF doctors

    Dr. Leard is very thorough but attentive. She presents a human, compassionate manner to the patient. I feel very comfortable receiving my post lung transplant care from her.

    Dr. Leard was wonderful. At times I struggle to find the words needed to describe what I am feeling and what I am thinking. Dr. Leard understood and we were able to have a good conversation about a very difficult situation. My wife and can't thank her enough for her support and understanding.

    Dr Leard is one of the best doctors I have ever had. She treats me as an intelligent equal in my own care.she showed me a series of CT Scans of my lungs, recent and far past, in order to help me understand my current condition.

    Great experience. After entering room,Dr. Laird immediately asked what did I want to talk about/ or what questions I had. She then answered each question separately & thoroughly. She checked my medical records &medications &agreed to consult with the transplant team regarding further treatment.

    Dr. Leard is always caring, attentive and never rushes me. She knows my history and provides guidance. She has been my pulmonologist since 2006.

    One of the best practitioners as are so many in the lung transplant clinic. She, Dr Leard, is as good as it gets.

    That question is very rhetorical. Of course I would recommend them to friends family and anyone else that asked where I had my treatment.
