See what our patients are saying about Emily Leath

I had my first telehealth appointment with Emily on May 14, 2026 and it will NOT be my last! She is kind, concerned and really listened to my concerns, providing positive feedback. My neurologist wants me off of two of my medications, as I am experiencing Parkinson's like symptoms. Emily is slowing weaning off of them, one at a time. I feel very comfortable talking with her, and can't wait until our next appointment!

Dr. Leath is amazing. She listens attentively, and considers the patient and their life as a whole. Her very high intelligence is obvious, and she uses it to fully analyze the patient's needs. She is a gem.
