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.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Leithe?
Dr. Leithe was quite dismissive with my disease issues. I first saw Dr Leithe after moving here; his diagnosis was quite different from my previous cardiologist at my prior home. Issues returned within 2 months so I requested another opinion. A cardiolite stress test and subsequent heart catheterization revealed confirmation of the diagnosis received prior to my care from Dr. Leithe. In conclusion, I can only determine that, like all of us, even the most educated doctors are only human.
