The office was clean, the staff was very friendly, and the office visit was incredibly quick. I had no complaints.

I left feeling confident that we would get to the bottom of what my pain issue is. I can't for more than that.

November 30, 2025

I trust this doctor with my life

November 27, 2025

very friendly, pleasant experience

November 22, 2025

Dr. McLeod is actually the best rheumatologist that my mom has ever had. So if I could recommend 100 people to her today, they would definitely get sent to her.

November 19, 2025

Wonderful staff and amazing first visit with Doc.

November 16, 2025

Wellstar was extremely quick in getting me into the various offices for imaging and labs. Dr.McLeod was very thorough in figuring out what is causing my illness and was very compassionate about listening to me and seems to genuinely care about her patients care and wellbeing.

November 13, 2025

This was my first visit so not alot of information available yet. Jennifer and Dr McLeod were both extremely kind and attentive.

Dr. McCleod had been highly recommended by a friend. I'm glad I waited for an open appointment with her, though I'm anxious to see what all the test results are.

October 30, 2025

5

I just wanted to say thank you. She's the first person who really listened to me. Most people will ignore what I say due to my weight, which I know is high and I know that's part of the problem, but you can't really do much if you're in pain and have no energy, even while you're exercising. So she's very good at explaining. She got me seen quickly, felt heard. I will definitely go back. Thank you.

October 31, 2025

5

I was very happy with my care

October 26, 2025

I have been going to Dr McLeod for quite awhile and have always been very pleased with the care I have received.

October 25, 2025

I can't say enough about Dr. McLeod! She and her nurse Jennifer definitely made great first time impressions. My wait time was nonexistent. All of my nerves were calmed by Jennifer's friendly demeanor and welcoming bedside manners. And Dr. McLeod intently listened to my concerns and thoroughly explained her plan of care. I would 1000% recommend her office to anyone without hesitation!

October 26, 2025

Excellent service.

October 23, 2025

She has eye contact when speaking to me.

October 24, 2025

October 20, 2025

5

Dr. McLeod's staff is so kind & helpful. Jennifer is so sweet, helpful too, & listens to me. & answers questions that I have that she can answer. Dr. McLeod is so wonderful!! She was the second doctor who really listened to me, seems to really care about her patients, was very thorough & detailed. I'm so thankful that another physician recommended I go see Dr. McLeod. I feel so blessed to have Dr. McLeod as my physician & very appreciative that she gave me a diagnosis & is now helping me with my autoimmune issues.

October 21, 2025

5

My visit with Dr. McLeod was very good. Jennifer, her assistant, was very caring. She was extremely thorough. She definitely made me feel calm and at ease. And same for Dr. McLeod. I can tell that they are a great team together. Dr. McLeod explained every test that we were doing, why we were doing it, how long it will take for my results to come back. and she even gave me a date to follow up with her to review my test results. Jennifer also kind of echoed everything that she said, so that was another way of communicating to just make sure that I understood what was going on and what was happening with my care. Front desk and checkout was very nice and helpful also.

October 18, 2025

My visit was quite pleasant from start to finish! As a new patient, I was put at ease and greeted by a very friendly and efficient staff. Dr. Mcleod was a truly a wonderful physician. She listened intently, asked lots of questions and gathered pertinent information about the symptoms I was experiencing. I was impressed by how thorough she was; ordering a multitude of X-rays, as well as a complete blood panel. I felt very confident in Dr. Mcleod as my health care provider! ??????????

October 16, 2025

My visit was quite pleasant from start to finish! As a new patient, I was put at ease and greeted by a very friendly and efficient staff. Dr. Mcleod was a truly a wonderful physician. She listened intently, asked lots of questions and gathered pertinent information about the symptoms I was experiencing. I was impressed by how thorough she was; ordering a multitude of X-rays, as well as a complete blood panel. I felt very confident in Dr. Mcleod as my health care provider! ??????????

Everything I hoped for. Beautiful clean rooms. A new doctor that I believe cares and wants to help. Easy access to labs and X-rays.

My visit with Dr. McLeod was very good. Jennifer, her assistant, was very caring. She was extremely thorough. She definitely made me feel calm and at ease. And same for Dr. McLeod. I can tell that they are a great team together. Dr. McLeod explained every test that we were doing, why we were doing it, how long it will take for my results to come back. and she even gave me a date to follow up with her to review my test results. Jennifer also kind of echoed everything that she said, so that was another way of communicating to just make sure that I understood what was going on and what was happening with my care. Front desk and checkout was very nice and helpful also.

The entire staff from arrival thru the lab exit were stellar. They were caring, helpful, and friendly. The nurse, Jennifer, was exceptionally attentive, informative, and helpful. Dr McLeod was great. I was so impressed with the way the office was run.

Dr. McLeod's staff is so kind & helpful. Jennifer is so sweet, helpful too, & listens to me. & answers questions that I have that she can answer. Dr. McLeod is so wonderful!! She was the second doctor who really listened to me, seems to really care about her patients, was very thorough & detailed. I'm so thankful that another physician recommended I go see Dr. McLeod. I feel so blessed to have Dr. McLeod as my physician & very appreciative that she gave me a diagnosis & is now helping me with my autoimmune issues.

I can't say enough about Dr. McLeod! She and her nurse Jennifer definitely made great first time impressions. My wait time was nonexistent. All of my nerves were calmed by Jennifer's friendly demeanor and welcoming bedside manners. And Dr. McLeod intently listened to my concerns and thoroughly explained her plan of care. I would 1000% recommend her office to anyone without hesitation!

Dr. McCleod had been highly recommended by a friend. I'm glad I waited for an open appointment with her, though I'm anxious to see what all the test results are.

I just wanted to say thank you. She's the first person who really listened to me. Most people will ignore what I say due to my weight, which I know is high and I know that's part of the problem, but you can't really do much if you're in pain and have no energy, even while you're exercising. So she's very good at explaining. She got me seen quickly, felt heard. I will definitely go back. Thank you.
