Merrilee Leonhardt

Extremely rude and callous, ignorant, and impatient. In a rush to be done with appointments, does not let you finish sentences, argumentative and just overall unprofessional. Please spare yourself any trouble, annoyance or hurt feelings and find someone else. Just an awful provider.

I came to her with issues with bipolar disorder, depression and anxiety. It literally gave me anxiety *to go see her*, that's how awful she was. Just like other reviewers, the evaluation lasted maybe 15 minutes out of the 40 it should have been. It was very rushed. She barely let me speak. I was scared to tell her anything! At a follow up appointment, when I told her a close family member passed away a few days prior when she asked how I was feeling, her face never changed, did not even say I'm so sorry or anything, she just moved on to the next question without saying anything. She seemed to be doing guess work in what to give me because she seemed to be wanting to get done with the appointment. Overall, would NOT recommend. My therapist was appalled whenever I told her about this doctor and the sessions I had with her (too many to be honest, should have switched way before).

Worst doctor I’ve ever had the displeasure of meeting. She is extremely rude, will harass you until you cry, argue relentlessly with you about meaningless things, refuse to listen to your input, make actively harmful comments, and she manages to accomplish all of this in less than 1/3 of the visit time she was supposed to spend with you. If you value your mental health and well being, stay away from this provider

Rude, abrasive and demeaning each time I’ve seen her. I don’t get a sense of compassion whatsoever from her and I fear for people with more severe mental issues that have to interact with her.

She’s very kind and compassionate. She listened to my concerns and what I’ve tried in the past, and i feel like we’ve developed a good path forward -and i know she’s willing to work with me on adjustments if it isn’t working. As a woman, with a slightly complex history, i feel like she “gets” me. I will certainly see her again.

She did a scheduled 45 min psych evaluation in 16 min. Told me I’m Bipolar “probably” because my mom was. The appt was rushed and she acted like she just couldn’t be bothered or seem to care.

Dr. Leonhardt seems like a very kind knowledgeable and compassionate Doctor. I've only had one appointment with her so far, but I would refer her to others. I'm glad I made the appointment. I have some new paths to take.

Terrific experience. Deep compassion and incredible patience. Dr. Leonhardt was generous with her time (I ran 10 min past my time) and thorough in describing atreatment plan and answering my questions and concerns. I am great full to have found her.

She does not care for her patients, just how quickly she can move through the queue. Poor interpersonal skills.

Pleasant and easy to talk to. From doctor on demand.
