About Leandrea

I have been in the medical field since 1997. I went to school with a passion for caring for people. I wanted to make a difference in helping people. I worked in womens health from 1997-2010. Also worked in Cardiology from 1998-2005. I decided to do Home care in 2010. I worked assisting seniors and people who were unable to care for themselves in their homes. I enjoy the one on one time I have with my patients and being a part of their familys llives.
