Ratings for Dr. Leah Harrington
My daughter has a complex medical history and Dr Harrington was recommended to us by staff at SickKids. She is kind, efficient, knowledgeable and very well connected which has been helpful when my children have needed referrals to specialists. Both my daughter and son have received excellent care. Nurse Suranie is wonderful and the receptionist is very efficient, always making every effort to book a same-day appointment if one of the kids is ill. Because they always try to accommodate sick visits, there can be a bit of a wait sometimes. Small price to pay in my opinion!

Incredibly kind doctor at Sickkids emergency dept.
My 2 yr old has neurological medical issues and it's always very complex to treat her. Dr. Harrington ordered urine tests and xray. The urine test came back negative but the xray gave us our answer. She is very experienced and even knew my daughters speech therapist, made me feel so confident in knowing that we are doing all the right things with our daughter.
Dr. Harrington took the time to calm down my daughter and talk to her in a friendly and fun manner after she had just gone through tests and was upset. Dr. Harrington made her feel comfortable and the visit at emerge was considerably good due to Dr. Harrington's professional and caring nature.

Dr. Harrington is an exceptional paediatrician. She is an excellent diagnostician and is well-connected to get you referrals if needed. I appreciate that she has continued to see patients in person throughout the pandemic. It is not difficult to get an appointment. She readily shares her contact information and is easy to reach. And the best part, she is patient and listens to what my kids have to say. We all appreciate her no nonsense approach.

Always too busy to care properly. Miss diagnosed my children. Said they are too young to get strep throat. Wouldn't test them based on that. I took them to a walk in got them tested positive and get them antibiotics right away. They suffered for a week waiting for Dr Harrington. I had strep at the time and she wouldn't take that into consideration. Very poor

I am surprised by some of the reviews posted here about Dr.Harrington. Dr. Harrington is one of the best paediatricians I know. She has been my daughters doctor since she was a baby. She is kind, caring, compassionate and very knowledgeable. My daughter and I always feel confident and secure in her care. She is a great listener and empathetic to my daughters concerns. I highly recommend her!

I found a 1992 HSC pediatrics hand book with your name on it. Googled to find you.

Does not care for babies. She does not even take time to evaluate your child. I do not recommend her .

I don't recommend her. She is always busy and she never has time to do a real assessment for your baby.

Dr Leah Harrington is one of a kind. She is so passionate about children's health. She is always available for consultation even when you cannot come to the office. As an immigrant to this country, l am grateful to have a Doctor like her. She goes
beyond care. I have never seen a doctor following with a phone call just to check on the wellbeing of her patient. Whether by telephone or in person, the level of care is the same. She does not discriminate. She takes her time and even apologizes when they are running late. I keep her in my prayers, that God should give her long life and that God should continue to use her hands and brain to save his children. Thank you very much Dr. Hartington for all you do. The extra steps you taje just to help my children and other patients. You are truly a Doctor at heart. you were created for this. God bless you Dr.
