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.

We’ve been seeing Dr Leonard for 16 years. He has been an excellent Dr. He is thorough, kind and caring! I can’t imagine having a different Dr care for my daughter all of these years.

Dr leonard is rude and treats hispanic kids very poorly. Check his reviews and stay away. He is rude ever single visit. Called my kid overweight right in front of him and walked out. Worst doctor I have ever seen. No stars

Dr. Leonard's an old-fashioned Doctor Who follows up with his patients he's very caring and meets our needs after hours and makes himself available for questions regarding our children in particular our preemie. Dr. Leonard takes the time to explain procedures and treatments . We are completely happy after finding him as the doctor for children . We drive all the way from the west side to see Dr. Leonard we would recommend him hands down . And East Coast kind a guy .

Completely misdiagnosed a bruised lump on our daughters clavicle as cancer. Sent us to a sugeon who performed surgery on our daughter all the way to her lung with no conclusion. The lump reoccurred a week later. Told us it may be a rare form of cancer, scheduled a second surgery in consultation with Dr. Leanard. I called our Family Doctor, explained the symptoms, he said it was a simple Venial Tumor from the original bruise, to leave it alone and it would go away. It did, biopsy/NO CANCER!!!

Dr, Leonard truly cares about his patients and goes out of his way to follow up after appointments to make sure they are doing better. He is an old-fashioned, no-nonsense doctor who only prescribes when necessary and makes sure the parents understand their full range of treatment options. I just adore him and the entire office!
