The staff is amazing. The love, spiritual clarity, and excellence of care here is unparalleled.” -patient

John Conner Houston, TX

“This is a family here. They really team together and look after your loved one and embrace family members that come to visit too.

I feel very loved and supported by the staff here.

The goal is healing...and they have that here.”

"Oh it's wonderful care. The standard of care is just wonderful!

Boy, I'd like to give a gold star to each Christian Science Nurse. You guys really know how to run this thing [The Leaves]. It's all done with such love.” -patient

“There’s a hymn in the Christian Science Hymnal that has a line in it that says, ‘cared for, watched over, beloved and protected,’ and that's the atmosphere that I found here at The Leaves.”
