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.

Disappointed and frustrated
I saw this doctor briefly for an ultrasound and when I say brief I mean very brief. She walked in while I was still getting a scan and without introducing herself just asked me if I had questions. I was distracted by still getting scanned and felt really rushed. Assuming she was the doctor, I tried to ask questions but they were answered impolitely and with one word. She seemed like she didn’t have time for me to be there in her office that day. I felt very unwelcomed and uncomfortable and left crying. This is my first pregnancy and know literally nothing. I am grateful to the other staff and ultrasound tech for at least being polite and nice. This doctor, however, didn’t even treat me like a person.

Dr. Leaphart and her staff at high risk OB were so friendly and professional during my visit. The entire time I felt informed and at ease. Thank you so much Dr. Leapheart and ultrasound tech Suzie B, your professionalism and friendliness meant a lot during such a high anxiety time for me!

My child died under this person’s care. It was the worst day of my life and she wouldn’t help me. I was transported from one hospital to hers and all the other doctors agreed that I needed to deliver. But she disagreed. I had to feel my precious baby dying inside me for nearly 24 hours. His heart rate dropped several times and there were so many signs. But I had never had a baby and I trusted her blindly. I didn’t even get to say goodbye before I went under. All she said after the emergency c section was “It’s not your fault, it’s not the hospital’s fault. These things just happen.” I think about him and that experience every single day. I’ve been to grief therapy but I have to wake up every day knowing I’ll never get him back. I don’t understand what I did or said that could make someone hate me enough to not help my child.

Very uncaring, didn't want to listen to your concerns at the first sign of a complication her suggestion is to terminate and hurry and get it over with. If you disagree she gets upset and tries to force her way on you against your wishes.
