My experience with Dr. Potter was excellent. He was very professional, friendly and knowable of the problem I was experiencing.
I would highly recommend him to anyone.

My appointment was simple, easy & direct. I was never kept waiting and Dr. Kumar answered the few questions I had. Follow-up bloodwork after the appointment was swift and concise. ARA is a top-notch group that exceeds all professional expectations.

I had such a great patient experience with Dr. Rottmann. She was on time (actually early), listened to my concerns, didn't rush me, and offered a candid and helpful assessment and a way forward. Super professional. Can't say enough good things about my visit with her. Highly recommend her.

My overall experience with Dr. Potter is always positive. Waiting time sometimes takes more than half an hour.
However, as soon as I’m seen by Dr. Potter he gives me the care and attention I need.
It makes the waiting worthwhile.
Thank you.

I have been going to this practice for many years. After my rheumatologist retired, he referred me to Dr Kumar. I have been seeing her for a few years now. The office is very clean, the staff is professional, and there is little waiting time. Dr. Kumar listens carefully, is knowledgeable, and thoroughly reviewed my medical records. She even took the time to review bloodwork I had done with another doctor.

Dr. Kumar has been very helpful in understanding my overall physical and neurological condition and the impact it will have going forward into my 70's.
Speaking in clear terms that I could follow, she helped me understand reports from other specialists I have seen recently.
I so appreciate the time she has spent answering my questions and making herself available if I have any further concerns.

Performed a thorough examination into my physical complaints and assessed the evidence of my suspected diagnosis. Performed a needle aspiration of my knee with a cortisone application.
I'm satisfied with every aspect of the medical practice and I feel as though more was accomplished in my first visit than I expected would be.
