With his daughter starting her studies in the University of Australia, Dr. Leo spends time with his wife and numerous animals, not forgetting his numerous passions, including reading, travel, and long-distance running.
I believe strongly in practising modern, up-to-date medicine that is based on robust evidence.
I adapt readily to changes in the practice of paediatric care. The basic care I provided 20 years ago has changed tremendously since.
To me, every child is unique. Thus, developing a relationship with children, teenagers, and families is important for me to provide the right care each child needs.
I am a strong believer that most children need few or no medications, and enjoy working with parents to determine what medicines will help, and what is unnecessary. This is a central part of my practice.
