Leigh is one of the reasons I stay with a smile on my face while fighting this horrible disease.
Nurse Leigh has been nothing but amazing. I'm a Lupus warrior and have a progressive lung disease. Nurse Leigh has been with me every step of the way. When I need her she is there. She stays in contact with me and checks on me at least four times a month. We communicate through the Albany Med app. She responds to all my emails promptly. She is one of the reasons I stay with a smile on my face while fighting this horrible disease. When I come for my appointments she makes me feel comfortable to talk to her about anything. The skill and heart she has for her patients need to be duplicated. Not many nurses show compassion the way she does. In closing, I want to give a big thank you to Nurse Leigh and all that she does and continues to do for me. Thank you.
