Cleveland Clinic strives to make scientific advances that will benefit patient care and support outside relationships that promise public benefit.

Dr. Leslie Tolle was excellent. I had sent to him via USPS over 120 pages of documentation along with images on discs. Prior to my meeting with him, he had read and looked at everything and was able to discuss the documentation, never referred to notes. He KNEW what the records indicated, what my concerns were and had ideas/tests to address the issues and, hopefully, solve my chest pain and SOB.
