Dr. James E. Leake

Dr. James Leake enjoys the outdoors; biking, racquet sports and golf are just a few of his hobbies. Taking family vacations with his wife and three children are also important. However, a true passion of this Atlanta plastic surgeon is the volunteer work he does overseas with an organization called Rotoplast International. Helping children with birth defects is a rejuvenating experience.
