Very pleased to be able to view high-res x-rays and get blood work done in-office. ~ Randall H. (Patient)
I work in healthcare and I’ve never seen a medical practice run so smoothly. This means a lot when I am taking time from work to come to an appointment. Even more importantly, I appreciated the time, attention, and concern that Dr. Kaiser showed me. ~ Abigail K. (Patient)
Dr. Thomas is absolutely WONDERFUL! She is very knowledgeable, explains things very well and listens so attentively. I’ve already recommended her to my friends and colleagues. Thank you! ~ Akira O. (Patient)
Dr. Diamond has been my rheumatologist for three years, and she is by far the best specialist that I’ve seen. She is friendly yet attentive and makes sure that all my questions and concerns are addressed. I also appreciate the fact that I am immediately seen by the doctor soon after I sign in. This office is not like the VAST majority of clinics out there where they make you wait 30-60 minutes, but the actual time spent with doctor consultation is minuscule. ~ Christine P. (Patient)
I have been suffering from fibromyalgia for a little over 6 years now. The road has not been easy. Before seeing Dr. Angus Worthing, I had no understanding of what the condition was or how I could prove my way of living. Being that fibromyalgia is something that a lot of people are unaware of and even deny its existence, I experienced great depression and felt hopeless. My doctors refused to see me. There were days that I physically could not move and nothing seemed physically wrong. I was tested for everything and then referred to ARA. When I started seeing Dr Worthing, his knowledge and sensitivity helped me greatly. He is knowledgeable and compassionate. It took us awhile to find what worked for me, and now I see him every 6 months for review. Having a doctor who understands your condition and the symptoms that may arise reassures you that you are part of a great team! My battle with fibromyalgia is not just mine, it belongs to my doctor and myself. ~ Nicole J. (Patient)
Staff, Aids, Therapists was Excellent. I would definitely come back for PT in the future. (Patient)
I rank physical therapy as among the finest health services one can receive. ARA has been wonderful for my physical well being. (Patient)
I LOVE Dr. Diamond. I’ve had RA docs at Georgetown and Mass General and, hands down, she is my favorite. She truly listens to my concerns about treatment options and has been willing to make adjustments based on things I’ve wanted to try. I appreciate that she doesn’t shy from tough patient conversations like weight management and handles them in a kind, professional way rather than judgmental and condescending. I wish there were more doctors out there like Dr. Diamond. (Patient)
I have recommended 4 friends to see Dr Ashley Beall. We all are extremely satisfied, grateful even for her thoughtful highly professional care. I recommend her without qualification to all my friends and associates. She is a real asset to your practice. (Patient)
The quality of service and knowledge provided by my physician, Dr. Diamond was extremely valuable, the best when I compare it to service received by friends. Her staff were always attentive and well informed. (Patient)
I thought the treating physician, Dr. Peng was very thorough. Dr. Peng was very professional, knowledgeable and he answered all of my questions, He did a very good job to ensure that I received the necessary medical tests identify my condition, His assistant Sabrina was excellent, friendly and knowledgeable. I plan to refer Dr. Peng to two of my family members. (Patient)
Dr. Worthing is a wonderful doctor. Very clear and takes the time necessary. (Patient)
This practice is excellent. Everything regarding it is outstanding. I see Dr. Duque and she is the best. Not only is she knowledgeable about arthritis but has one of the best patient/doctor relationships I have ever witnessed. She is very compassionate and makes you feel confident in her abilities. (Patient)
Dr. Wolfe is compassionate, professional, efficient and smart. I trust him completely. (Patient)
I came for a second opinion, and liked Dr. Kaiser so much I decided to become her patient. (Patient)
I was tense and nervous and in a lot of pain, and I had never seen a rheumatologist before. I was so impressed with how kind and courteous everyone was, as well as with my doctor. Dr. Peng was attentive, answered all of my many questions, and provided lots of information. Besides addressing my concerns with my lower back, he was also able to determine that I had a thyroid problem and gave me a referral to an outstanding endocrinologist who’s helped me with this challenge. I’m so very grateful for that. (Patient)
Dr. Beall is the only doctor I see (and I see quite a few others) that I have 100% trust in. Simply put she is the best in the business. (Patient)
Dr. David Wolfe is one of the best physicians I have ever met. When doing a diagnosis he covers all angles and keeps an open mind to other possibilities. He diagnosed my lyme disease very promptly and saved me from suffering serious consequences. Dr. Wolfe treats me with kindness and respect. He takes time to answer all my questions and encourages me to take care of myself. I can not say enough about this doctor. I have my health back thanks to Dr Wolfe. (Patient)
I was very impressed with the time taken to examine me and get a complete history, as well as the support staff. Very professional! Dr. Siegel was excellent and made me feel very comfortable. (Patient)
