I don't have a specific story, but Dr. Ley always goes the extra mile. He is a doctor who practices medicine the way it should be practiced, but at a real cost to himself.

My Philosophy and Approach to Wellness...
After practicing general internal medicine for 24 years, my beliefs, my ethics and my reasons for choosing medicine as a profession remain constant. I am able to take sufficient time to develop and maintain the personal and professional relationships which are critical to providing quality care. I enjoy being able to spend time listening to, studying and discussing each patient's unique issues in order to provide proactive care and assess the multitude of medical issues in a thorough and prompt manner. I find great satisfaction and reward in helping guide my patients through the increasingly impersonal and worrisome world of healthcare. I look forward to coming to work each day to do what I love - spending time with my patients and providing them with the personalized care and compassion they deserve.

Testimonials from patients of Dr. Ley
We're so grateful to Dr. Ley and his staff for caring for us. We can arrange appointments speedily and discuss whatever concerns us in a friendly and confidential manner. And there's usually a simple treatment or a helpful referral. The office is quite comfortable and attractive, and parking is a breeze.

There are several to tell, but here's just one: I had to drive husband to hospital in the middle of the night; I phoned Dr. Ley at 3 a.m. reporting on situation. By 5 a.m. I phoned again to say we were leaving for the hospital picture icy/snowy RI roads. The ER staff was excellent, testing husband, administering meds. We were all surprised/amazed when Dr. Ley APPEARED it was still dark… See more
Dr. I can not thank you enough for always being there for Bill and I. It means so much to know that when we need you you are there. Coming to Miriam Hosp. to check me when I was in the emergency gave me a save feeling. Thank you again
A few months ago I experienced some unexpected cardiac problems which resulted in eventual quintuple bypass surgery. Dr. Ley stepped in and coordinated the entire process which included getting me transferred to the appropriate hospital, arranging for the best cardiologist and the best surgeons to handle my case, and monitoring my aftercare and rehabilitation. His involvement was very much… See more
I am not the easiest of patients, I usually follow all of Dr, Ley's advice...but not always. I can be forgetful as well as stubborn. He does not accept that, but does so with courtesy. I have never had more confidence in my Doctor's advice.
Best decision I ever made, my doctor is the best! I also referred my elderly parents to my doctor. They now have a quarterback looking after them and coordinating all of their health care specialists. The peace of mind that this brings me is priceless!
I am very satisfied with MDVP and my Doctor
