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.

Best Dr
Dr Leiter has been very attentive and caring the entire pregnancy. She delivered me with confidence, care, and patience. I’ve been delivered by a different practice and it’s a world of a difference. Dr Leiter is amazing

Dr. Leiter has been my gynecologist for a few years and I can not ask for better care from a physician. She is very knowledgable and always addresses all of my concerns. The staff is also very welcoming and kind.

Dr Leiter is surely recommended as a bright and thorough doctor. I had some great experiences visiting her. Yet some of my visits I came out feeling belittled and made fun of. Interesting to note that her reviews are outstanding. Makes me think that she has her picks and moods. I would not change doctors, for the simple reason that she knows her work very well. And truthfully, that's most important. So I will definitely continue using her as my gynecologist, ignoring my intuitions.

Dr. Leiter is a great doctor who is very calming to patients, and her experience shows with every interaction. She is kind, considerate and will always go the extra mile for her patients. She helped me get birth control that made sense for me and is always ready to answer my questions.

Dr. Leiter is a great person, a great doctor, and most impressively, a great diagnostician. I came to her with a peculiar bubble in my groin area. Obviously, I was so upset. She calmed me; she examined me; she knew what it was (not gynecological, as it turned out) and referred me to the right doctor. She is the best.

Dr. Leiter has been my doctor for 10+ years. I never have to worry or feel the need to get a second opinion. It was such a comfort having her with me throughout my recent pregnancy. She answered all my questions and provided me with options but let me make my own decisions. When it came to the delivery, I could not have done it without her. My nearly 10 lb baby was born vaginally thanks to Dr. Leiter. I knew I was in the best hands and was able to focus solely on pushing. Highly recommend her
