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. Leaird was treating me for paoriatic arthritis and I havent found another doctor to replace her that is as compassionate, caring, and understanding. She listened and explained treatment options really well. I REALLY miss her in TN. I would highly recommend her. Secretly hope she moves back because I would move back to her immediately.

Dr. Leaird had been treating my lupus for years before she moved. I hate that she moved from TN. I feel like she really got me and was so understanding of what I go through. I feel like we had a great doctor patient relationship. She will be missed here in TN for sure.

Dr. Leaird has been treating my rheumatoid arthritis and other associated autoimmune diseases for the past ten years. My care has been complicated and she has consistently sought innovative treatment options to provide me with the best possible pain relief and long-term prognosis. She goes above and beyond to make sure I am feeling my best-even to the extent of calling and texting me on the weekend just to ensure I’m doing ok. She’s one in a million!!
