With a wealth of experience in dermatology spanning over more than a decade, Dr Leitner worked in dermatology across the country including the Manchester area, Cambridge and the West Midlands from 2011.

In addition to her clinical work, Dr Leitner is committed to advancing her knowledge in dermatology and aesthetic medicine. She completed a Masters in Skin Ageing and Aesthetic Medicine at the University of Manchester.

Dr Leitner was very thorough and very professional. She took time to explain medical and financial issues and options clearly. I booked the original consultation online on the day she saw me. She had a scheduled cancellation which meant that surgery was only a fortnight later.

Thank you for your positive comments about the care you have received. I'm glad to hear that you find the online booking option useful. I hope many other patients will feel the same, especially if phone lines are busy or over weekends and out of hours. Thank you!

Dr Leitner was professional, personable and explained the whole process clearly and calmly; what could have been a stressful experience was the very opposite.
