It was a pleasure to meet Dr. Berhanu! She came to our first appointment prepared with my medical history and conscientiously asked all the pertinent questions. She also patiently answered all my questions. She carefully explained various treatment options, and advised me on what I should do on my own. And, on top of all that, Dr. Berhanu is a great listener with a winning personality.

Dr Berhanu immediately understood the problems I was having and diagnosed me correctly. After I learned of my diagnosis I found out that many people go for years and years with the wrong diagnosis of my disease. I feel so lucky that she is my doctor. Not only is she extremely skilled, but she is also a kind and caring person who makes me feel seen. She is truly excellent.

It is always a pleasure to see Dr. Berhanu. She is very competent, very pleasant and very thorough. She always listens to my questions and answers them fully in a way that I can completely understand. I recommend her highly to anyone seeking a rheumatism and/or arthritis physician.

Always a pleasure. Dr. Berhanu is a gem! Extremely professional, caring and really shows an interest in my overall health care. She has been monumental in detecting health issues unrelated to RA because she is that invested and thorough with her patients.
I’ve had several RA doctors and when Dr. Momeni, moved out of the area I struggled for several years to find a good RA. Now that I have Dr. Berhanu, I will follow her to the moon if need be!
The entire staff is also very helpful, kind and professional.

Dr Berhanu is excellent. She takes time to listen, asks salient questions, suggests options for OT and in my case, for simple hand surgery.

She took the time to really pay attention to me and to my lab results. She figured out what was wrong with me in about 15 minutes - something my internist hadn't been able to figure out. She was nice and easy to talk to but above all she was very good at what she does. Very impressive.

She is the best physician I have ever seen. She is knowledgeable and very caring. I have a very rare disease, Gorham Stout Disease, of which she, along with every doctor I have seen, had never heard. But Dr. Bernahu took the initiative to examine the area of my skull where the symptoms occurred and researched it. I feel so much confidence in her. I saw her for another problem the other day and she showed an equal amount of concern offering immediate treatment. I am a very loyal patient!!!
