Our Carolina Care Highlight this week recognizes Dr. Barbara Lee LeVarge from the Department of Medicine’s Division of Pulmonary Diseases & Critical Care. Here’s what one of Dr. LeVarge’s patients had to say: “Dr. LeVarge is extremely knowledgeable not only in the disease but how each person may react to the disease differently. She thoroughly listens to her patients to get the full picture of how the disease is affecting them…”
…She works well with other healthcare providers that her patients see to gain all information and help her and her patient to make informed decisions. I appreciate that she treats me with respect and allows me to actively take part in decisions regarding my healthcare and realizes that I know my body best and she knows medical practice best so when we work together & listen to each other, we make the best team for my healthcare.”
