Meet the Doctor

I'm Dr. Leandro Moraes. I'm a medical oncologist and hematologist here at Lee Health. And I am originally from Brazil, or my family is, and I was born in Chicago but grew up in Birmingham, Alabama. I joined Lee Health because I believed in the mission that Lee Health was trying to pursue here, which was providing excellent team-based care to the citizens, residents of Lee County. I chose the specialty of medical oncology and hematology, number one, because I grew up watching my father, who was also a medical oncologist and hematologist. I spent time as a teenager rounding with him in the hospital and shadowing him, and really being inspired by the patients that I saw and the impact they have on their lives. And then, of course, the specialty is very interesting to me. I was always interested in sciences, and I also like a mystery. And I feel like the specialty kind of incorporates both of those things. We're constantly using sort of cutting-edge technology, research, and always trying to figure things out still. It's a constantly evolving field. So when I'm not at work, I like to do several different things. I dabble a little bit in electronics and technology, so you may find me at home in front of the computer or messing with different electronics, doing things like 3-D printing, helping my wife with her miniature business. You can also catch me outside doing things like fishing, sailing, or even, despite the Florida heat, enjoying a hike out in the sun.
