Dr. Leffler, Killed in Crash....

Sad day at Columbia Talk where we learn that our family pediatrician was killed in a head-on collision. Allan Leffler was a gentle, calming soul who helped us through some early medical issues and always eased our anxieties. The first time I met him he walked in to the examination room in those sandals of his and I instantly felt a connection. Rest in peace doc.

I just wanted to say that Ellicott City Pedriatric Associates is a wonderful office with wonderful people. R.I.P. Your great work continues.

I just learned today while at the Dr. Office that Dr. Leffler died. Dr. Leffler treated my three children. I remember so well that office on Montgomery Road. Dr. Leffler had a dog named Molly and one day Molly got in my car and my daughter and I had a heck of good time trying to get Molly out of the car. 32 years later my daughter still remembers that day with Molly. One time Doc left a cook out to treat my child at his office for a broken collar bone. It was so that my son would not have to wait for hours in an emergency room. God broke the mold when he made Dr. Leffler. He was one of the best.
