Dr. Leatherwood and his staff are AWESOME! I have been a patient for many years because I have so much confidence in him. He is the best! Donna, Cheryl, Mary, and Debbie and his new nurse Tabitha are great, so is the rest of the team. They are responsive to all our requests. My husband and I would not go to any other doctor for our care. We drive almost 50 miles from another state just so he can take care of us!! Thank you so much, Dr. Leatherwood and Team. You are the best!!

I have been a patient for a number of years. I couldn't ask for a better doctor and staff. Always prompt and polite.

I've been going to Dr Leatherwood for many years. He's a wonderful caring Doctor! I love him! The problem is over the years it's become increasingly hard to get an appointment with him!! There is usually over a months wait. Also not impressed with Privia.

Horrible front desk staff. I recently had an appointment and when I showed up they just told me I'm not on schedule. When I asked if they can fit me in she said no. I told her I have the appointment card that they filled time and date for the appointment. She couldn't care less and didn't even apologize. They are the rudest people I have ever encountered at a healthcare office.

My wife and I love Dr. Leatherwood. He is a wonderful doctor, and loves to chat about the Florida Gators with my wife, who is an FSU fan. He saved my wife's life by detecting a heart problem prior to surgery that no one else found. Highly recommended as a caregiver, diagnostician, and advisor.
