Dr Ahn is an excellent choice for a rheumatologist. She listens extremely well. Has a very compassionate nature. She is progressive in her approach to finding the best fit for your wellness. I highly recommend her. She has recently added a pa-c as her assistant and she is also very efficient and you will feel confident in the care you receive from both of them.

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.
