Great information and concern for my issues
Swedish Patient
Dr. Lehr is the cardiac surgeon who has seen me through three different cardiac events. Two open heart surgeries, the last being repair of a torn patch that caused bleeding and clotting. I have deep respect and trust in this man who has always described what procedures will be performed in all three cases and then follows up to assure that recovery is explained to me. This last appointment involved my husband and me seeking his guidance about limits on my physical limitations and daily activities as time passes to avoid damaging the new patch or my heart.
Swedish Patient
Dr. Lehr and his team are amazing providers. Dr. Lehr contacted me prior to my appointment and spent an inordinate amount of time with me. He is kind, compassionate, and addressed me as part of the team in my upcoming procedures. I wish all doctors and medical providers had the compassion that he displays!!
Swedish Patient
I was terrified of the upcoming heart surgery in the next couple of months and Dr Lehr reassured me that it was going to be an easy surgery for me and he was very compassionate. He relieved my anxiety toward the procedure.
Swedish Patient
I am very impressed with Dr Lehr and his team. I have come to the right place.
Swedish Patient
Dr Lehr was great, explained the procedure thoughtfully and was though. Spent time answering my wife and my questions. Hopefully surgery goes as well as he says
