Dr Venkatram really listens. Unlike most dr that just ignores your statement of what’s happening, she really listens and digs deep to the root of what’s causing the problems. I’d recommend her for anyone battling autoimmune disorders, RA issues as well.

I like Dr. V. very much and have shared her information with my primary care provider. The only negative, is the 3 hour drive to see her. Please try to establish a rheumatology hub near Alpena.

Oct 14, 2024
What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
The doctor is not interested in discussing rheumatoid arthritis or my health. She was so dismissive of any questions I tried to ask in my 6-minute visit after over half an hour of them being late. This is a lifelong condition I should have a doctor who is interested in communicating with me about the condition.

Highly recommend. Video visits are thorough. Camera is used to actually see areas of issues and to watch me preform different tasks just as if I was in the office. The office staff are extremely helpful and kind.

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
Fought gout for 18+ years seen several Dr's n nobody got me a solution for pain relief n was always treated as gout. 1 visit with this Dr and she knew right away it was psoriatic arthritis put me on meds to treat and I haven't felt this good in years without being able to jump right up in mornings and go compared to years of days that I couldn't even walk. Also Krissy the nurse in the office is great always very knowledgeable and helpful with questions
