About me
Dr. Leonard specializes in treating patients who have blood cancers such as leukemia and lymphoma, including those that need bone marrow transplants. Her research is based on understanding what signaling pathways drive growth and resistance in acute leukemias, and identifying novel combinations of drugs that can target those pathways. She hopes that her research will lead to new therapies that will make treatment for leukemia more effective and better tolerated for patients. In her free time, she enjoys hiking with her dogs, photography and travelling the world.

Insurance
Before scheduling an appointment
- Check your network. If you have health insurance, call your company to find out if the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is part of your network.
- Ask what you will pay. Your insurance company can tell you what your costs are likely to be.
If you schedule an appointment and your health insurance does not include OHSU Health, you may have to pay more than if you go to a provider in your insurance network.
