I was very impressed with Dr. Demetri. She went above and beyond the call of duty even going with me to get extra X-rays that she needed for diagnosis. She was calm, thorough, explained everything to me in terms that I could understand and set forth a plan for me for the future.

Dr. Demetri was very warm, kind and professional. She explained everything in a way that was easy to understand. She told me exactly what to expect after my steroid injection in my hand to help my trigger finger issue. She sensed I was anxious about the actual injection and made sure I was comfortable and provided excellent support to help me feel less anxious. Excellent clinician - with great bedside manner. I will recommend her to my friends, family and colleagues should they need a hand/arm specialist. Recommend her highly!

Dr. Leah Demetri is very personable, professional. She makes you feel heard and she really listens and she just makes you feel very comfortable like a friend who's a doctor. She's very sweet, a doctor and very smart, very knowledgeable. I wouldn't want my care to be in anyone else's hands.

I thought Dr. Demetri was very kind and respectful. She was very receptive to all the questions that I had and she helped guide me through the x-rays of my hand very attentively. My only issue really was just not having a sense for when I'd get to see her and I think a little bit of timeliness with the appointment. But overall she's a phenomenal doctor and I really appreciated the experience and the appointment. So I would definitely highly recommend her to others. Yeah, and she helped quell a lot of my anxiety about my hand. So I really appreciate her taking a look at it. Thanks. That's all my feedback.

I love her so much she knew exactly what she was doing. It didn't hurt. I barely felt the needle, which is something very unusual, but I am so grateful for her. I thank God that they put her back as my doctor on my provider. I should say she's wonderful.
