About John Leimert MD
John D. Leimert, M.D., F.A.A.P earned his medical degree from Tulane University School of Medicine in New Orleans, LA. Prior to that he had earned his undergraduate degree in Chemistry from Duke University in Durham, North Carolina. Dr. Leimert completed his chief residency in Pediatrics at Yale-New Haven Hospital, and then completed his fellowship in Pediatric Pulmonology and Critical Care at Rhode Island Hospital.
Dr. Leimert’s clinical interests include general pediatrics, pediatric respiratory diseases, and the delivery of high quality care to underserved populations. He was inspired to become a physician after watching his brother go to medical school, and learning of his experiences within the medical field. In addition, pediatrics interested Dr. Leimert as he worked at a New Hampshire based camp for underprivileged kids throughout high school and college, really enjoying the opportunities to coach and teach them. His personal philosophy of care is rooted in being present to all aspects of the patient’s human condition – not just the clinical presentation, but also the family’s defining social, economic, ethnic, cultural, and spiritual backgrounds.
Outside of work, Dr. Leimert enjoys many outdoor activities with his grandsons including hiking, kayaking, biking, skiing, camping, swimming, and traveling. Additionally, he teaches Tufts University physician assistant students the art of pediatric medicine, being a member of the faculty there for almost 30 years.

This Dr. was new to my son as his other Dr. retired. This new Dr was very nice made sure my son knew what he was going to do at all times. He talked with my son and made sure to askIf he had any questions or concerns to let him know. He is a very nice and courteous Dr. he made my child feel very comfortable.
Dr Leimert is very nice and caring. He always takes the time to explain my son's care and goes above and beyond to assist with anything we may need. I 100% recommend him!
More Appointment times that are after school/ into the evening. Over the years We have gone from yearly physicals in late July to now October because exactly one year was not available or the appointment needed to be canceled once by us and once by the Dr office with a reschedule weeks later at best. So now we are in the school year. I prefer to not take him out of school for routine appointments.
Really grateful for this provider and his ability to connect with and treat my teenage son as he prepares to enter college years. So glad we are able to continue on with Southcoast Pediatrics while he's in college!
Love this office and the staff

Dr Leimert is doing a great job! He cares about the patients and explains everything
Great staff all around who pay attention and remember my son and his history. And as a bonus always have enough Thomas stickers on hand to make him extra happy.
Always have a pleasant experience with all the staff and doctor. My only complaint is that I have to get permission for my chart for my boys
Dr was very personable and easy to speak with. Was very thorough with my child's physical.
Felt caring. Took time to ask and listen. Stated concerns, gave good advice. Will follow up.
Dr Leimert is always the best doctor, but the nurses this visit were 20/10 absolutely amazing.
