Dr Leff has been extremely caring throughout my diagnosis, surgery and aftercare. He put me at ease and made me feel that I was in safe hands through a traumatic time and has done his best to make my surgery as neat as possible which he has definitely achieved.

I cannot express enough how grateful I am to have had Mr. Daniel Leff as my breast cancer surgeon. From the very beginning, he demonstrated an immense level of care and attentiveness towards me as a patient. He took the time to explain my diagnosis thoroughly and ensured that I understood the risks and treatment options available to me. Mr. Leff made it a point to take into consideration my lifestyle and needs when proposing a treatment plan, which made me feel like a valued and respected patient. Throughout my surgery, Mr. Leff maintained direct communication with my support network, providing them with regular updates and reassurance. It was clear that he genuinely cared not only for my physical well-being but also for my emotional and mental health during such a challenging time. The quality of Mr. Leff's surgical work was truly exceptional. I felt safe and confident under his care, knowing that I was in the hands of a highly skilled and experienced surgeon. Mr. Leff's follow-up care was also exceptional, which further emphasised his dedication to his patients' well-being. Overall, I cannot thank Mr. Daniel Leff enough for his exceptional care during my breast cancer journey. His kindness, expertise, and attention to detail have made all the difference, and I highly recommend him to anyone seeking top-notch surgical care.

I count myself fortunate that Mr. Leff was my consultant surgeon for the removal of a breast tumour, cancer cells and lymph node. From the moment I found myself in Mr. Leff's care to the time when I could go home, I felt in safe hands, well looked after, and listened to when I had questions or concerns. He was caring in his manner, decisive and precise in appraisal and diagnosis, all of which gave me great confidence in him and his team to do a highly skilled job. Mr Leff or a member of his team explained everything clearly to me at every stage of the process. His team of skilled nurses were a great support throughout the consultations, pre-op, and especially post-op when I was feeling a bit woozy in the recovery ward. One feels very vulnerable during such a time of worry and disorientation. The empathetic and professional support offered by Mr. Leff and his team was quite wonderful. Obviously his talent and great skills as a surgeon are paramount, but I felt that everything else that contributed to a good outcome and to make the experience as comfortable as possible for me as a patient, had been exceptionally well prepared. Things that I would not have thought of needing, but actually did need, had been thought of and prepared for me. I see this as being directly connected to Mr Leff's team leadership and a great nursing team. Three weeks after my operation I am recovering well, and relieved to learn from Mr. Leff, that I will not have to have a second operation as can sometimes be the case. I know that Mr Leff also took great care with how the breast would look afterwards and I was grateful to know that would be as important as removing the cancer. The swelling has already completely receded and I can already clearly see that the scar will be almost invisible when all has heeled completely. The incision looks incredibly neat, and almost hidden even after such a relatively short time. Like anyone else, I hope I will never have to go under the knife again, but if that unfortunately did happen, I would definitely want Mr Leff to be my consultant surgeon again. I am so grateful and thankful to him for the wonderful outcome.

Daniel Leff is an exceptional surgeon he is incredible skilled and diligent. He is also a humble man that acknowledges his team talents and in return gets the best results by utilising their skills and opinions. He made sure he had enough information from extensive biopsy, and imaging to be able to plan my operation. I feel extremely blessed to of had Mr Leff as my surgeon and the results are amazing not only did he manage to remove all the cancer in my breast which was not contained but had a scattering of small cancer cells surrounding it. The reconstruction is a marvellous improvement on the the original breasts as he reduce and lifted them whilst keeping the natural curve and symmetry whilst removing the cancer. He is remarkable.

My experience with Mr Leff has been first class. From the moment I met him he has been wonderful. He has explained everything to me every step of the way and in a way that I have been able to understand. Despite it being a very worrying time I have nothing but praise for the care I have received.
