I was referred to Dr. Leong about a year ago to treat non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. She is very caring and knowledgeable in this area. She listens and takes the time to answer any question and never rushes my appointment. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.

Dr Small took care of my son when I as a pediatrician couldn’t figure out what to do. She was kind and caring and patient. She listens to all your concerns and makes me feel heard. She also made a treatment plan that actually worked for my son for the first time. Not only do I love going to...

Dr. Blyskal has been my PMD for multiple years. As a RN am very impressed with her blending of empathy and competence. She is available and present. She is focused on you in the moment. I am very grateful for that! She has been a very supportive and caring person and MD.
