On time, gracious assistant Kate welcomed me, Kiley’s friendly and attentive demeanor much appreciated. She gave me much good info, listened to my report, and did feel my hands for condition of the arthritis. She explained a bit about how the communication within the office works, and that was useful.

Laura Robbins has been wonderfully helpful since my Rheumatoid Arthritis diagnosis. She's knowledgeable and thoughtful, she listens patiently, and she provides helpful suggestions. Though my symptoms are relatively mild, I imagine that her kindness and calm would be even more of a lifeline if I were experiencing severe symptoms.
