Loved my primary care doc. Dr. Leykina listens and hear all my complaints, offers choices and communicates clearly. She promptly returns all my calls and have her patients well-being at heart. Highly recommend her to my family and friends. read more

Both the doctor and the staff so rude. No way to treat people you've taken an oath to help.

After reading some of these reviews I feel that I must to write one. Dr. Leykina has been my primary care provider for years now and at one point her thoroughness and attentiveness literally saved my life. She was not only checking all possibilities for right diagnosis by directing me to do the tests and to go to specialists, she always follows up and explores all the angles. When some people mentioned long wait for the appointment, I do understand that sometimes doctor needs more time with one patient vs another because every case is different. That is why I never annoyed if I need to wait a little for my appointment. I appreciate and value the attentiveness, patience and care of this doctor. read more

I wish there was an option to give a 0 ranking or even lower for this incompetent, rude, and negligent doctor. Her accent is so bad you cannot understand a word that comes out of her mouth. The Campus for Jewish Living should be citied for hiring such a terrible doctor to care for their delicate patients. Please do not send your delicate, sick loved one to this doctor. Dr. Diana Leykina failed to treat my loved ones severe constipation and collapsed lungs which caused severe internal damage and breathing problems. DO NOT utilize this doctor. My loved one eventually died while under the care of this doctor. read more

Incredibly bizarre experience entirely. I read the reviews and can only assume there are two groups of people who see this doctor. Anyone expecting modern medical care and an attentive ear should NOT go here. Perhaps if you are more traditional, or need a Russian speaking doctor, this may be a better match for you. The first time I had a basic checkup appointment I waited for over an hour. The doctor saw me for about 5 minutes and literally shook my hand for .5 seconds before pulling it away in one of the most awkward handshakes ever. After starting off oddly, she proceeded to listen to my heart beat for something like 2 seconds, not even enough to count heartbeats. She glanced at each ear for perhaps .3 seconds each, and then told me she would 'pray for me' and my health condition. Her assistant is her saving grace and a wonderful woman. She went the extra mile to help me out, but honestly it may have only been because I told her my husband was born in Moscow. read more

I started going to Dr. Leykina since we moved to the neighborhood and she is great! I chose her as my primary care and recommended Dr. Leykina to my parents who need to come and see MD more often as they have heart problems and high blood pressure. She is easy to talk to and explains everything in clear and simple words. My parents admire her, she always answers their calls or return them as soon as possible which is very important not for elderly people only. I also find her to be extremely thorough and really up to date on all things medicine. She treats her patients with care and helps me with my allergies and colds. ( so I can get back to work quite soon ) Her office is nice and cozy and the staff is friendly and pleasant. The waiting time is about 10 mins which is great. I highly recommend Dr. Leykina as a family doctor to everyone who needs professional advice and good care. read more

When I started working, I was only in the City for a week, so I didn't have a preferred physician for my HMO plan. Dr. Leykina was chosen by default. After I quit and finally had time to make some appointments, I called her office. I asked for the earliest appointment since I plan to move out soon, she booked it for the next day! In just the first day I was able to sign up, get my blood pressure and weight checked, a vision test (reading letters), a prescription for body acne, a labcorp referral, and talk about any other problems. On the second day she quickly examined my body, and I was done. It was a great experience. No waiting. No ridiculous fees. Just a standard check up as I wanted. Be cautious though, this entire office is Russian (i think!). If you're looking for a quick check up this is the place to be. I'm not sure how she handles longer term patients or kids, but for me, it was perfect. read more

Went in today because I knew I had a bladder infection [had one like 6 years ago, those things suck]. I called at 2 pm and told the receptionist what was up and she had me scheduled to come in two hours later [I told her I was just looking for something in the next couple days and she was like ... "No way, bladder infections hurt, come in today!] Receptionist is french I believe, and Diana turned out to be very russian- their accents can be a little difficult to understand, but both are very sweet and have that down to earth, direct, European way about them that I very much appreciate. She listened to everything I had to say, checked my urine sample, and yup, UTI! [The joys of being female.] She wrote me a prescription right away, and scheduled me for a blood panel next month [I've never had one] and she though it would be good to just do a full check on cholesterol, thryoid etc just to make sure everything looked right. Over all, SUPER easy experience, I showed up 20 minutes early and she saw me before my appt time, only had to wait about 10-15 minutes. It's only 15 minutes from my house, so I'm stoked to find her! read more

Be prepared to wait for 30-45 minutes after your time to see the doctor. All 5 times I've been there I had to wait. To my question 'Why I have to wait so long?' the receptionist said: 'We're very busy all the time, and we can't predict how long it will take to get done with a patient.' And you can't get your results by email. You have to get there and wait in a line for 45 minutes after your appointment's time just to get your results (2 minutes). And no excuses at all! read more

I specifically signed up for Yelp, so I could just warn my fellow patients about this extremely unethical and rude doctor. Dr. Leykina is easily one of the rudest, most inconsiderate and unprofessional people I've ever met, and this is coming from someone, who was born and raised in Russia...Don't expect to be treated with dignity and respect, because this is not her style. She won't give you the attention you deserve, and will constantly remind you of how little time she has, yet she keeps accepting new patients. Because she wants to spend as little time as possible with the new patients, she most likely won't prescribe the medicine that fit your needs well (my 70 years old mother ended up with the legs swollen to the point, where she could no longer walk). When I called Dr. Leykina, who specifically told me to feel free to call with ANY questions, with the basic question about the paperwork I needed to get filled up, she wouldn't even let me finish talking. She started yelling at me for wasting her time, and not contacting her assistant instead. No, wait. Let it sink in: THE DOCTOR STARTS YELLING AT YOU OVER THE PHONE, BECAUSE YOU REACHED OUT TO THEM, AND NOT TO THEIR SECRETARY INSTEAD. How about them apples? Any by "yell", I mean she was HYSTERICAL. I could keep going and going about how long the wait time was, how late she was to our appointment, how old, tiny and outdated her office was, how non-customer service oriented her staff were, how the entire time we were there, we felt like if we owed something to them - that's how uncomfortable it felt, but I think you get an idea. Do yourself a favor, and stay away from this unprofessional, rude, incompetent and unstable person. There are plenty of other Russian-speaking specialists in SF Bay Area, who will treat you with dignity and respect and take care of your needs better. read more

Definitely not a thorough doctor! I came to see Dr. Leykina for a routine UTI. She ended up giving me a prescription for some medicine to no avail. I ended up coming in here 3 consecutive times and was given the same drug again each time but with a stronger dosage. I finally told her I felt like the medicine she was giving me wasn't working since I had developed a resistance. I finally asked her to do a "culture & sensitivity" the third time to find out what medicines would work to kill/ reduce the bacteria. (At this point...I had discovered what a "culture and sensitivity" was through my studies). My point is, YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE TO ASK YOUR DOCTOR TO DO A " CULTURE & SENSITIVITY" FOR A UTI!! This should be a no-brainer and should be done the first time the patient comes in with what appears to be a UTI. At the hospital I work at, this is the first test doctors order for patients with suspected UTI's after they write the patient a prescription. The "C &S" report wil at least tell them if the medicine they prescribed will work and if it doesn't, it will tell them what medicines WILL work. I am definitely not going back to her. She lacks the basic clinical skills of a general doctor. read more

I've been taking my grandmother to Dr. Diana Leykina her primary care physician for years. She is great with her and that's all that matters. She listens to our concerns and always helps. If it's something they don't specialize in, she is really good about referring my grandmother to best place. Today we had a follow up appointment which went really smooth as usual. Marina which is the doctors assistant is also so kind and always so sweet and attentive. If you want a great experience I recommend Dr. Diana Leykina and her team! read more

I had a bad skin rash on my hands and feet, my dermatologist was not available for 2 weeks. so i've visited dr. Leykina and she has helped me immediately. she was very confident and even if she gave me prescriptions, I did not even need to fill them. Doctor's advised remedy helped me on the next day. I'd definitely recommend dr Leykina to anybody. read more

Dr.Leykina is a very thorough and careful doctor. After I switched my insurance, Dr. Leykina was assigned as my doctor. I decided to call in and get a check up. The response I got when I called in was very friendly and helpful. I asked for an appointment as soon as possible, and I was scheduled for the next day! When I came in, the experience was also pleasurable. She took a thorough history and was easy to explain things to. She really understands what her patients say. She also scheduled the blood work I needed and a follow up. I was impressed. I had read that the office was Russian, but that was not what I experienced. The waiting room had English speaking people as well. Dr.Leykina was everything I could have wanted in a doctor. No hassle. Nothing annoying. I will definitely be coming back, hopefully only for check ups. :) read more

Came a cross this md at an elder care center in San Francisco. Singularly unimpressive..

In my quest for a doctor in my new city, I first phoned some of the big multi-doctor practices and was told the first new patient appointment was anywhere from 4-6 weeks out. I found the prior positive comment about Dr. Leykina and phone her office. They were able to work me in that week and I had a good new patient visit. She and her staff have been very helpful working with my schedule and insurance company. I have never had to wait more than 10 minutes at my appointment and they have been very responsive to phone messages and even email! read more

Dr. Leykina has been my doctor for many years, and I appreciate her attentiveness, quick responsiveness, and overall honest and compassionate care. From annual blood tests to directing me to specialists, Dr. Leykina always finds the fastest way to get help. I highly recommend her to all my colleagues and friends because it's tough to find a doc who actually cares nowadays. Go see her! read more

Dr Leykina is truly a professional. She is very attentive, thorough, knowledgable and passionate about helping her patients. Getting an appointment is never an issue. She and her staff treat patients with nothing but respect. Her staff was accommodating when I showed up fairly late to my appointment (held up at work). The wait time is never an issue, give or take 10 minutes. One of the main reasons I keep going back is because Dr. Leykina has a way with making her patients feel comfortable. I was told to feel free to call anytime with any questions. When I did, she answered every single one of them. Her empathy is apparent in every interaction. Her compassion is unparalleled. She always does her best to get to know you. She does not just listen to the complaint, but understands where the patient is coming from. Most importantly she is very knowledgeable. She really knows her stuff. She is a professional in all meanings of the word, and has surpassed my expectations of what a doctor can be. I have the upmost trust and respect for Dr. Leykina and can offer only the highest recommendation for her and her staff. read more

After few minutes , doctor explain what went wrong with me. She was very nice and professional. I was very comfortable talking to her. She actually take her time to listen to my concerns. Thank you Doc. read more

I came to Dr. Leykina because my company insurance changed (previous insurance Kaiser Permanente). When I called Dr. Leykina's office, the response I received was great: quick, simple and fast. My appointment was scheduled for the very next day. Once there, my wait time was minimal (compare to Kaiser - 40min-1hr minimum). Speaking with Dr. Leykina was very easy and comfortable. Some of my issues were very personal and speaking with her was no problem. Dr. Leykina answered all my questions with great detail and even called me PERSONALLY to check up on my improvement in a few days. Great care! Without any hesitation, I would recommend Dr. Leykina. read more
