“Overall great experience Doctor was attentive, gave great advice and instructions and look forward to my follow up . She was empathetic as well and uplifting.”
Ingrid O.June 29, 2026
“I truly enjoyed my experience at Leaf Medical. From the front desk to the medical assistant to Dr. Pretti.
I could fill in the form ahead of time which makes my check in very smooth. The medical assistant guided me on what to expect for my visit and was very helpful. Dr. Pretti was very nice. She took the time to go through my health history in details and was very clear about what to stay on top of. What I appreciated was her holistic view on health and incorporating a lot of tips for longevity and brain health for me and my entire family. I will definitely recommend her.”

About Dr. Preethi Hilton
Dr. Preethi Hilton is a board-certified family medicine doctor who believes in taking care of the whole person—not just symptoms. She’s known for her thoughtful, down-to-earth approach and loves building long-term relationships with her patients.
Dr. Hilton studied Health Management and Biology at Saint Louis University, then spent time doing research at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), where she developed a deep passion for patient-centered care. She went on to earn her medical degree from the Virginia College of Osteopathic Medicine and completed her residency at Inspira Health in southern New Jersey, where she cared for a diverse and underserved community.
Along the way, Dr. Hilton gained extra experience in areas she feels strongly about: women’s health, nutrition, exercise, and helping patients manage their weight in healthy, sustainable ways. She believes that with the right guidance and support, prevention really is the best medicine.
Dr. Hilton’s commitment to care has also taken her beyond the U.S.—she’s participated in medical mission trips to El Salvador and Honduras. She currently serves as a Clinical Instructor of Medicine at Weill Cornell Medical College and is affiliated with NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital.
After starting her career at Leaf Medical in Long Island City, Dr. Hilton spent a short time in Richmond, Virginia, with her husband. She’s now back in New York and sees patients at Leaf’s Dumbo, Brooklyn office.
When she’s not seeing patients, Dr. Hilton loves traveling, discovering new foods, and spending time with her husband Ben, their daughter, and their sweet Cavapoo puppy.

My experience with Dr. Hilton today was amazing. The front desk receptionist was welcoming(I forgot to ask her name). Angelica (MA) was friendly and made me feel at ease as she completed my vital signs and draw my blood. Dr. Hilton was awesome too. She explained the importance having important examination completed and also respected my decision. Thanks to the awesome team at Leaf Medical! Happy Holidays!

December 17, 2025Brianna R.Verified patient
Highly recommend Dr. Hilton. I came in for my annual check-up and had a lot more questions than usual because I am a newly post-partum mom. I was seen promptly (even though I arrived early), and the office is welcoming, warm and clean.
Dr. Hilton was very thorough in walking through all components of the check-up, and making sure to address any concerns and questions I had. She was very warm, professional, and knowledgeable. I really appreciated that she took the time to explain the 'why' behind certain recommendations, which not all doctors do. I can't recommend Dr. Hilton enough!
December 17, 2025Sheila H.Verified patient
