He is the ultimate professional. He explained the process so clearly and was easy to talk to throughout the surgery. His mannerism was clearly genuine. He was relaxing and overall a great dr.

The best surgeon ever. Dr. Lele was very, very thorough in his explanation of the problem, the surgery required and followup procedure. He made me feel very comfortable with the whole procedure. I would highly recommend Dr. Lele if you ever need a surgeon. You will have the best and that is what you want.

Dr LeLe was my husband's surgeon when he had cancer . He preformed his biopsy when we lived in TN and he was a wonderful doctor with a kind and caring bedside manner.

Doctor Lele is very professional and the best in his field in the DFW area. I selected him based off of his profile and other reviews. My primary doctor checked his credentials prior to me going to see Dr. Lele regarding the removal of my bottom right lobe. The day we met with him and he explained the VATS procedure to my husband and myself, we left his office completely at ease and knew we had selected the best surgeon. The entire office staff are professional. They handled everything for us including all my disability forms. My surgery went great. I stayed in the hospital for 6 days. This is my first night home and I feel incredible. Virtually no pain and breathing at almost the same lung capacity as prior to surgery. Thank you Dr. Lele, your staff, and all the incredible staff at the Heart Hospital in Arlington, Texas.

Dr. Lele cured my mother of her lung cancer last year. Not only did he cure her, he took her lung out through an incision just 1 inch long! He took such good care of her, both before surgery and afterwards. We were blessed to be taken care of by such an amazing doctor.

Dr. Lele did a great job taking care of me. He was very thorough and took time to explain everything without rushing me. I was impressed by his demeanor and confidence, and his results justified it. I had lung cancer and he cured me by removing a whole lobe of my lung through a 2 inch incision. I think there are doctors and there are healers, and he is a healer
