Providing Compassionate Care Rooted in Personal Connection

A board-certified family physician, Dr. Le works with patients at his private practice – Le Family Practice – based in Placentia, California.

Driven by a passion for building strong relationships with his patients, his practice is guided by the principle of truly getting to know the individuals he treats. Despite the time constraints in modern medicine, he makes a conscious effort to understand his patients’ backgrounds, hobbies, and interests, fostering a sense of trust and connection. He believes in empowering patients by explaining health conditions in clear, understandable terms and collaboratively developing treatment plans that align with their goals and preferences.

Hailing from southern California, Dr. Le earned his medical degree from the UC Irvine Medical Center, before completing his internship and residency in family medicine at the UCLA Department of Family Medicine.

An expert in his field, the doctor is board-certified in family medicine by the American Board of Family Medicine (ABFM). The ABFM is a non-profit, independent medical association of American physicians who practice in family medicine and its sub-specialties.

In addition to his medical expertise, he is actively engaged in community outreach and health advocacy initiatives. He is committed to raising awareness about preventive healthcare measures and empowering individuals to take control of their own health. Through educational workshops, public speaking engagements, and collaborations with local organizations, he strives to make a positive impact on the health of the community he serves.

Beyond his clinical practice, Dr. Le emphasizes the importance of a healthy lifestyle as a foundation for overall well-being. By staying active, eating nutritious foods, maintaining a positive mindset, and taking pride in his work, he leads by example in promoting a holistic approach to health. He believes that true wellness encompasses not only physical health but also mental and emotional well-being.
