Although Dr Leppard is noted as a hand specialist, he’s done a spectacular job on my rotator cuff repair!! He’s like family and treated me like one of his own and his staff are pleasant to be around.

I was suffering from a severe case of lateral epicondylitis(tennis elbow). After undergoing months of intense PT, and a visit to another physician, I was referred to Dr. Leppard. The office was extremely efficient, and X-rays were swiftly performed. Dr. Leppard clearly explained my condition, and then proceeded to meticulously inject cortisone into my elbow, with such incredible skill and accuracy. Good bye pain! I highly recommend Dr. Leppard!

I would highly recommend Dr.Leppard. He was trustworthy and extremely knowledgeable. He performed surgery on my hand and it went well. He made me feel very comfortable before my surgery and was available with any questions I had.

Dr Leppard has treated my fractured wrist and forearm in the last year. I found him to be extremely professional and caring. I have never waited more than 10 minutes in his office and his staff is great. Would highly recommend him. Thanks Dr L

DR. LEPPARD has one of the best patient friendly physicians that I have ever dealt with over the last 60+ years. He just removed a tumor from my forearm. He thoroughly informed me of the details of this out-patient procedure, first in his office and then again in the hospital right before this delicate operation. he called my wife, and then myself, with the results of the procedure. Over the years, I have used him other ortho problems with excellent results. I certainly would recommend him.
