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.

I have recommended Dr. Leiva to many friends.

Dr Leiva is wonderful. He's very personable and knew my case by discussing it with my other doctor who will take part in my care before I ever arrived. He is compassionate, caring and takes his time with you. Being my fist visit with him, I am very impressed and I like him a lot. I felt I am in good hands.

I had surgery in July. I have needed support with a nutritionist. It takes months to get an appointment with them and you can't even get someone to answer your question. They suggested I go to an outside nutritionist but that is not covered by my insurance. I finally had an appt Dec 2 and they just called and cancelled it with no other options. You will not get the support you need from this office and getting support and guidance through this is critical. Find another physician!!

The Doctor is a nice person but I only disagree in the way they manage my follow up visit, I never saw the Dr again after the surgery with questions about my recovery. I spoke to the nurse or assistant over the phone and then she never return my calls and messages and I had to go to the clinic to speak to someone.

Yes, i would recommend Dr. Leiva to anyone looking for a surgeon they can trust. He is a fantastic surgeon! Our family has had the opportunity to work with him 2 times under completely unrelated circumstances and both times the surgeries were successful, despite the complications that arose at the last minute. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and experienced surgeon.
