I was very impressed with his knowledge and experience and he spent as much time as was needed to answer my questions and review my situation and medication’s. He also gave me some insights into my condition that previous doctors had not. All in all he’s a terrific physician. And he has a wonderful manner too.

Dr. Diamond is thorough, kind, caring, and makes suggestions for how to improve one's health without shaming, and with encouragement. I still hear how she told me to exercise, and two years later, I’m lifting weights and working out, run-walking, and my bone density INCREASED. She also has a good sense of humor. All the staff, doctors, and techs at ARA are great. My sister with RA went to ARA for more than 30 years, and it changed her life.

From start to finish a great experience. Unfortunately I don't know the young lady at the front desk who was MOST patient and helpful to assisting me from signing in with necessary paperwork. Most gracious. Dr Philpotts was patient, kind and most efficient in providing the necessary medical attention. Dr Philpotts' assistant was patient and kind as well. My first visit but not my last was productive, well informed and well cared for.

Compassionate and thorough

Oct 7, 2026
This was my first experience with a rheumatologist and I'm so fortunate to have had Kiley, which sets a high bar for anyone else I might speak to. She was empathetic, explained things very clearly and simply, was able to answer my challenging questions with logic, patience and respect. Kiley was just all-around calm and knowledgeable, which gave me a lot of confidence and comfort in her presence. This was confirmed by my mother who, after I shared what I had learned from Kiley, said she had never been told any of those things by any of the rheumatologists she had seen over the last decades. I will be back, and my mother is also planning to switch rheumatologists!
