Scottsdale Rheumatology, MD

I have been suffering with Systemic Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis since I was 14 months old and have seen quite a few Rheumatologist in my day. I am so blessed to have found Dr. Rizzo almost 11 years ago. Since basically my entire life has been dealing with this awful disease I have experienced many types of doctors. There is nothing worse than going to a doctor and having to teach them about your condition or having them sugar coat everything so your feeling’s are not hurt… Well Dr. Rizzo is truly one of the smartest doctors I have ever met! He also doesn’t sugarcoat anything and tell’s you like it truly is. Which honestly is the best for everyone! I know there are sensitive people out there and he probably isn’t going to be the best doctor for you, but honestly I would just suck it up and see a doctor who going to tell you like it is and get you on the road to recovery or manageability. If you have arthritis you know how excruciating of a disease it is… so why would you want a doctor who is going to mislead you and/​or give you false hope?! Dr. Rizzo is truly for his patients and finding them solutions to improve their lives. He has given me so much support through the years and truly made such an improvement in my health.
Oh and I can not finish this review without acknowledging Dr. Rizzo’s awesome staff! Medical assistant, Ashley and Office Coordinator, Liza and the rest of the ladies are AMAZING!!! I truly look forward to my monthly visit’s with this awesome crew.

If I could give NO stars, I would! Terrible office, Rude. Unfriendly. They were very particular to the point of being paranoid. As far as I know, there is only one Dr. here — Dr. Warren Rizzo. You actually have to sign something saying that you won’t sue him! This was real fishy as I don’t know of anywhere else that does this. When I wouldn’t, they wouldn’t see me. I spent a lot of time finding a babysitter, getting to the office and filling out paperwork. Then when I wanted my paperwork back, they refused to give it to me. Save yourself the stress and stay away from this place!
