Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr Leslie Steed is an outstanding Nephrologist
Dr Steed is so organized and quick to cover all aspects of my kidney problems. I highly recommend Dr Steed as their nephrologist.

Dr. Steed
Every visit is very thorough, in her examinations she greets you by name, and asks lots of questions. one of the last ones is how are your parents, dad is 97, mom is 92. She is very concerned about your health.

It was a pleasure to find such a caring and thorough doctor, one who even had a sense of humor. She did not rush in examining me, answered all questions, and made recommendations. I only wish she were a PCP as I'd feel safe in her capable hands.

Dr. Steed, through her critical thinking and due diligence and years of experience, saved my life. My PCP and I were literally out of ideas as to what was wrong with me. I had all these strange and awful symptoms- but to what we did not know. He knew how thorough she was. If we had missed something, she would find it. Indeed she did- she found a 'shady character' that was on a years old MRI that was used for something else entirely. She repeated the test and that was the start of saving my life!

Warren in Portland – Feb 16, 2018

I am a patient of nearly twenty years; Dr. Steed has kept my Gitelmen's stable, expertly. She is an exceptionally caring, sapient physician. She received me, in 1999, sick and vomiting from the potassium. She stabilized both the dosage and attenuated the drowsiness from the ACE inhibitor. As a protector, over three elders, doctors are not my favorite people: Leslie Steed is a glaring exception. Her quiet caring is matched only by her wisdom in medical decisions. An Excellent Doctor. Q.E.D.

I've had to move to 3 different states for work, so finding a new nephrologist each time can be difficult. But I feel lucky to have found Dr. Steed. She's personable, straight forward and caring.

Dr. Steed is very knowledgeable and quick-minded. She focuses on information and solutions. I find her professional, supportive and truly caring, tho not overly expressive. When you need to reach her, leaving a message with her office gets her response in a very reasonable amount of time. She is old school and handles everything from coming to get you in the waiting room, to weighing you, typing your appointment summary and updates to your record.
