In my experience, truly exceptional clinicians are rare. Brett Leifson is one of them. He has a quality that defies the usual categories of “professional” and “personable” — somehow both deeply human and impeccably precise. From the first conversation, it was clear he wasn’t simply performing a role; he was listening, engaging, and genuinely caring.

I have had such positive experiences here with Brett, I’ve always felt like he hears what I say and we work from there forward, I appreciate that he looks at clinical studies on updated treatments for something I might be experiencing, it makes me feel like I’m getting the best and most current care. I would refer him to any of my friends and family.
