My daughter who is handicapped and I trust Dr Sarmento and her staff totally. We are always at ease and know she will provide the best care possible for us. I would have to look for another Dr if she ever left.

Dr Sarmento-Leite is considerate, caring, knowledgeable and efficient, and has demonstrated those qualities in every one of our encounters. The staff is also highly efficient and thoughtful and always respond quickly. I'm so glad I found this practice.

I'm glad that I was referred to Dr. Sarmento by my daughter in law! She and the staff are very caring and I feel very comfortable and confident that I am in good hands!
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 3/28/2026
The moment I walked in I was greeted with warm smiles and hellos. The nurse who did my vitals was personable, friendly and caring. She put me at ease and was wonderful. The doctor was so nice. She listened, she was informative and caring. I had to change primary doctors because my office closed, and now I'm convinced it was meant to be. So thrilled with my experience. Going to the doctors might not be so anxiety inducing from now on. 10 out of 10!

I have been going to this office for many years my first doctor I really liked but she left the practice then I was assigned another doctor which I see now at first I was very apprehensive about seeing her but I have began to like her she is very professional and knowledgeable about my care and listens to my concerns and acts accordingly to get the results needed for my care
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 2/19/2026
This was a recommendation from a friend/healthcare professional that I trust. So I was not surprised by the care and professionalism that was exhibited by all staff members.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 2/12/2026
I felt that Dr. Sarmento was a very kind and caring doctor and I appreciate the care that she gives. Thank you.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 2/6/2026
Dr Sarmento resigned to all of my concerns as well as inquires of her own.A new med was sent to CVS for the entire year. Although all my appointments are good this was the best due to my age and condition.
- 1 out of 5 starsReviewed on 2/4/2026
My experience with Dr. Sarmento-Leite didn't go quite as I expected. This was my first new patient appointment at this practice. I was interested when I learned it was strictly for women. The doctor seemed very cold and uninterested in my medical history. The appointment maybe lasted 15-20 minutes. As a new patient I would expect a doctor to spend more time being thorough. I most likely will not be returning to the office as I am looking for a physician that is interested in my well-being.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 1/18/2026
I felt more relaxed then I usually do when visiting a Doctor's office.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 1/17/2026
Dr. Sarmento-Leite is a caring professional. She listens to my concerns and will provide suggestions and recommendations.

This office always runs on time, but this appointment was exceptional. I arrived 30 mins early expecting to read my book and I didn't even make it a full page before being called back. I was in and out before my scheduled time, but never felt rushed!

Dr. Sarmento is a great young doctor. She is a good listener and seems to know her craft very well!

My experience has always been great.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 1/14/2026
I have to mention that the front desk and check out staff are wonderful. They were very pleasant and helpful. I had another appointment in the same office two hours later and they made sure I could be seen without having to come back later. They are always the same whenever I go to the office.

She is great

I love Dr. Sarmento and recommend her to everyone I know. It's a shame the office isn't taking new patients because my mom needs a new doctor and I'd love for her to see her.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 12/26/2025
I feel very fortunate to have been recommended to Dr. Sarmento-Leite by a friend of mine who is a retired dentist. I recently moved to the area and I am very grateful that I was able to make a connection with someone of the doctor's high caliber. Thank you very much.

I had a late evening appointment and everyone was still very friendly and helpful right from check in. Dr. Sarmento-Leite always asks multiple times if I need anything at all. Great office!
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 12/11/2025
It's so refreshing to go where it's only women. There's no need to over explain myself, they get it. My doctor knows my history and asks the right questions. She always listens to me and offers solutions that I'm comfortable with. I'd highly recommend to anyone.

Never had a bad experience at this practice.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 10/31/2025
I am really concerned that I really wasn't listened to when I said that I had an energy drink before coming in for my appointment. I consumed the energy drink because I had taken medication for anxiety before my flight to return home from Georgia the day before. Therefore I knew that my blood pressure would be elevated as energy drinks often do cause this. I was asked to monitor my blood pressure daily and if it continued to be elevated to let the doctor know. I do not consume energy drinks on a daily basis. Therefore, I am not going to monitor my blood pressure on a daily basis. That is absolutely absurd. I was not listened to. I was not trusted. and I was not heard.

This was an "emergency " visit. I had a rash on my leg and called that morning and spoke with the triage nurse. She said I needed to be seen and scheduled an appointment. It was diagnosed immediately and needed no further treatment. Extremely pleased with the care I received.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 10/16/2025
I actually have recommended this practice and this provider. My daughter is now a patient here and I'm comfortable with that.

It's very hard to get an appointment at the women's group. It's several months out. I feel like the virtual group was more interested in collecting their co-payment than my actual care.

Did not connect with this provider like previous one you had that left. She seemed out of touch with the stage I am in my life.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 8/13/2025
Love how on time they are each visit! No waiting but still not rushed through your visit!
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 8/8/2025
Um, the doctor, she was an excellent doctor. I think one of my answers, the first one I misunderstood, but she gets a five star for me, a 10 star for me. She's very, and she's the first doctor I ever seen to come on the, um, telecom one time, a hundred percent. So, um, great, great doctor, beautiful person, beautiful heart, does her job very well. And, uh, that'll be all.

I am very pleased with Dr Sarmento
- 1 out of 5 starsReviewed on 7/9/2025
I felt like I was not treat like a patient by the provider. I felt like she didn't care about my situation and she just rushed through the visit. She seemingly had better things to do than to be bothered with me and my sick feelings.

Providers did not do a complete physical exam and when I mentioned a specific problem, the provider didn't even assess it. Just ordered studies. I expect better from my primary care provider and I greatly miss Dr. L!!

I will not be returning for care under the provider. I will be finding someone else. She came in, walked right past me didn't even look at me. I felt like I was a bother to her as soon as she stepped in the room. I don't feel that warm welcoming feeling from her. She prescribed me a THIRED antidepressants for me to be on. Didn't really want to go that route. I will not be taking it. She asked me 5x "do you have any more questions" I felt like I had to say no each time she asked because again, I felt like a bother to her. Do not recommend her.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 5/20/2025
I always have a good experience with Virtua. Everyone is friendly. Yes Dr. Sarmento listens and yes I would recommend her to family and friends. As a matter of fact, she is the PCP for my sisters and my daughter and we all think she's good.
