I whole heartedly believed this was a practice/business that was truly interested in the wellbeing of its patients, employees and patient care in general; to better the lives of elderly people suffering from Rheumatologic disease, pain or even just arthritis. The staff will ALWAYS be pleasant unless you get unruly & nasty with them but, that will never be an issue when you come here. First you have a blonde hair, blue-eyed physician who thinks he’s God’s gift to women, really comes off as a nice person but he’s actually so unhappy with himself & his own life even though he has it «all», he likes to talk down to others, not to their face of course — they provide part of his income. He’s been sued for battering an ex-girlfriend… Manipulation and control, much? Oh and he is sleeping with his medical assistant/x-ray tech, which constantly bringing DRAMA to that place. Dr. A himself is an amazing Board Certified Rheumatologists who specializes in Auto-immune diseases and is definitely someone whom I would trust with as my very own physician. He’s thorough, takes his time with all his patients & genuinely loves medicine. The owner of the practice is a very intelligent man, with much knowledge of his field just like Dr. A. The business aspect is ran in such manner that more revenue can/should always be coming in, which means seeing more patients than the practice can actually take on. You see the doctor for a very short amount of time, he leaves the room(within that time procedures are ordered: xrays, injections, medications, labs, etc.), the medical assistant gets you set up, when all is ready, only then will the doctor come back in, to give an ultrasound-guided injection, when he’s done he’ll take off his gloves and after he leaves the room that is the end of your encounter with the physician unless you happen to catch him before he leaves. Patients who have followed this particular physician for the last 8 years end up waiting 30 – 60 minutes to get an appointment with him. Some storm out pissed off from the waiting room before even seeing the doctor because they get tired of waiting, and sometimes there are patients who break down at their whit’s end, pull their pants down and demand to see a particular physician the same day; but others are simply addicted to the cortisone injections into painful, arthritic joints which is a temporary band-aid for the pain. Why not just get your degenerative joints replaced while your young & healthy enough… Before you’re stuck with the PAIN for the rest of your life & require coming to doctors like this. It’s just not good. There are negative risks with every drug & irreversible side effects with long term use. Modern medicine has really made the elderly live too long. The body is not immortal, and we truly are outliving the life of what the body is meant to live. This place is all about the numbers, like cattle, heard them in & get them out. The office is pretty cleanly kept, and more«upscale» & contemporarily designed than most offices with granite counter tops & stained wood doors. Call to see if they accept your insurance, it might be a place you’d be interested in!
