Though I was hoping to meet with Dr. Worthing, who evidently was at a conference, Kiley was outstanding. She is personable and highly knowledgeable and answered all my questions with the experience of a physician. Thank you, Kiley! You are the best!!

Dr. Peng is very thorough and informative. He asks how I'm doing, do I have any symptoms. We review any medications I'm on and make sure the medication is working and if not to make adjustments/changes and only after blood lab work if needed.

Highly recommend Dr. Phillpotts. Appointments always on time, never have to wait. Lab work done in house so no need to go to a separate appointment. Knowledgeable and takes the time to fully explain all options, lab results, etc.

Excellent visit!! Dr. Peng is very kind and compassionate. He took his time to review my medical history. And didn’t make me feel rushed- even though I was late for the appointment. He provided wonderful explanations and unbelievably touched me. Meaning he conducted an examination of various areas to complete his assessment. I was beginning to feel like that was not included in medical appointments any longer. He also thoroughly explained his diagnosis and treatment plan. Highly recommend him to anyone seeking a Rheumatologist. Thank you Dr. Peng.

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.
