On February 22, 2015, I gave birth at The Birthplace at UCLA Medical Center, Santa Monica to a beautiful baby girl named Kayli Herrera-Leon. Prior to giving birth, my OBGYN, Dr. David Ghozland made everything so much better. The nurses helped a WHOLE LOT as well, but Dr. Ghozland played a great part. He was willIng to do everything I asked. He also helped me through my day by telling me how good I was doing and how I was almost fully there. He was a big part of my courage and confidence. I know he's a very young doctor but I don't have a father and I felt that comfort with him. I am teary eyed as I talk about him, because I have shared this with anyone, but he was just AWESOME. I can't even explain how great of an OBGYN he is. His front desk manager, Maria, was also wonderful as he was, and for that I am grateful. I will NEVER forget him and I will ALWAYS for the remainder of my life keep him as my OBGYN doctor. Dr. Ghozland, I want you to know that you are a WONDERFUL man. Your patience with me was beyond anything I could have imagined. You are very loved in our family!
