Dr. MacLeod is hands down in the top three doctors I've ever met. Every time I leave an appointment with her I feel seen, listened to, and responded to with care and compassion. Most importantly, I feel prepared and ready to face any health concerns with confidence. Honestly, Dr. MacLeod's care has helped me take control of my health and life again. There are many that could take a note from her book on how to be a top notch doctor.
