Ritecare Pediatrics

very pleasant over the phone customer service

Great Doctor!!!

Dr. Leykin is the best!
I first found her when my daughter was less than a year old. Her other pediatrician kept giving us creams and lotions for dermatitis. I kept pushing for a diagnosis or reason for the dermatitis. Not just something to cover it up.
Our first appt. with Dr. Leykin was our turning point. Immediately, she thought my baby at the time, may have an egg allergy. She sent us for additional testing, and sure enough, she was allergic to eggs. Every food we had given her with eggs in it, broke her out and caused her to itch on her elbows and knees. The minute we cut out the eggs, the rash went away.
I also noticed how observant Dr. Leykin was with that initial appt. She watches and writes everything! If mom is not getting enough sleep, Dr. Leykin notices.. If baby isn't getting enough rest, nutrition, stimulation, she will notice and advise accordingly. I have moved twice since finding Dr. Leykin. Each time I move, I'm farther away from her office. Because of the level of care received, and her overall attentiveness to the wellness of families as a whole, my daughter now 9, will have Dr. Leykin until she ages out of her care!
