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.

Great Doctor
I was diagnosed with breast cancer in September of 2023. I was extremely fortunate to be a patient of Dr. Leonard. Dr. Leonard is a brilliant doctor and I knew very quickly that I was in the best hands. She explained everything to me so that I understood what my treatment options were. She is kind and compassionate and made me feel much less afraid. Dr. Leonard's team are outstanding. Dr. Chaewon Hwang was wonderful, she took the time to help me fully understand the treatment process and spent as much time as needed answering all my questions. She also has great taste in shoes! The lovely ladies at reception greeted me each day by name and with big smiles which is so comforting to anxious patients. The nurses that gave my treatments were incredibly kind, as were the nurses in Dr. Leonard's office. It was such a positive experience that I will be forever grateful to the entire team. Thank you all so very much.
