Dr. Berhanu is a gem! Not only is she skilled and smart, but she also has the best bedside manner of any doctor I have ever met. She listens. And then she takes what she's heard and tailors treatment to you... unlike most doctors, who force their favorite treatments first, and figure out if they work, second. She's second to none!

Dr. Berhanu (and also her staff) made me feel so seen and heard during our appointment. She listened attentively, and with obvious interest and empathy, and was undistracted by trying to multitask with the computer. She really took the time needed to learn about my symptoms, explain her thoughts about my diagnosis, and help me understand the pros and cons of the different treatments that are available. I left her office encouraged about being able to better manage my symptoms, and also feeling like I was valued as person and not just another face and medical record passing through the on the schedule. I'm really grateful to have found her!

Yesterday was my first visit with Dr. Berhanu. She is so knowledgeable about bone health, and is a very caring, attentive, and supportive doctor. I am so delighted that we share the same outlook on health and the value of regular physical exercise. Before seeing her, I didn't think I needed a practice for arthritis and rheumatology, but Dr. Berhanu is way beyond what I expected! She thinks outside of the box. She's totally on board with my lifestyle that supports my focus on my wellness. I'm confident I'll maintain my health by seeing her. I'm very fortunate that I'm a patient of her and her kind staff.
