Patient Rating
Patients overwhelmingly describe the physician as a skilled, professional and compassionate surgeon who listens, explains procedures clearly, and achieves good surgical outcomes. Many comments highlight his bedside manner, clear communication about procedures (including robotic approaches), and successful recoveries. A small number of patients reported negative experiences, saying the visit felt rushed or their issue was not resolved, and one mentioned notable postoperative bruising.
Generated via Patient Reviews
The patient rating score is an average of all responses on our patient experience survey. The rating averages scores for all questions about care from our providers. The scale on which responses are measured is 1 to 5 with 5 being the best score.
Patient comments are gathered from our patient experience survey and displayed in their entirety. For the convenience of our visitors, some patient comments have been translated from their original language into English while preserving their original meaning as accurately as possible. Patients are de-identified for confidentiality and patient privacy.

I was nervous because I was looking for someone to replace the irreplaceable Dr. Mark Savareise but Dr Le was wonderful, a kind and personable man who knows what he is talking about!

He is the best surgeon I've ever had. Really cares
A concerned and professional surgeon.
I didn't feel like he helped me with my physical problem. He didn't offer a solution, and he seemed to be in a hurry to finish my visit. I feel like he didn't provide me with a sufficient solution for my condition, nor did he explain what to do or where I should go to get help improving my condition. Apparently, he couldn't help me. I wouldn't recommend him because I feel he wasn't professional. [TRANSLATED]
I thought all was well. Once home I noticed a lot of painful bruising. Something like a patch for this might have been awesome. It hurts very much.
Dr. Le recently used a robotic approach to remove my diseased gallbladder. I found the recovery to go quite smoothly. At 4 weeks post surgery I felt about normal. Based on my experience he is an amazing dedicated surgeon. I would highly recommend him.
