Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Melanie Leight saved my childs life when he was born. She is the best obgyn in the nation and we're lucky to have her in our community. My son is 4 now and doing great now. The delivery process was difficult for him and JMH said he had Cystic Fibrosis but after prayer and a trip to Knoxville for special testing he tested negative for CF. My precious child would have died at the hospital if it wasn't for Dr. Leight's strength, determination and her skilled team at JMH. Big thanks!!

I was so pleased when I went into labor and found out that Dr. Leight was the OB on call. She is a wonderful doctor. She makes sure to take her time and makes it top priority that you are comfortable during the entire delivery process. If I have anymore children I can only hope she will be the one to deliver them.

Dr.Leight is the best doctor I have ever seen! She cares about her patients and took very good care of me when I had my daughter and when I had surgery while being pregnant. She has such a kind heart.

I have never been more pleased with a doctor, for the first time I felt like I was given the time and attention to explain symptoms. Dr. Leight is amazing, I wish she was a primary care physician!
