She is such a great Dr. She explained my test results carefully and we talked about my medication. She apologized for being late ( maybe 15 minutes)- I don’t remember any other doctor apologizing for being late even when it’s been 45 minutes

Dr Kumar continues to be, in my opinion, a national treasure. She is thorough, knowledgeable, informative, and caring. I feel that, if she didn't save my life, her diagnosis and treatment at least saved me from long nights of pain,

It was a very pleasant experience meeting Dr. Kumar. After many years with ARA and my wonderful doctor who retired last year, I had high expectations when I came to see Dr. Kumar. I am happy to say that she truly met them. She has a very calming presence and gave me great peace of mind. I look forward to continuing my medical treatments with her.

Dr Kumar is the best; kind, caring, and she listens. I like that she is supportive of alternative treatments. She suggested I try acupuncture and it has greatly helped my fibromyalgia pain. I highly recommend her.

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.

Great Doctor

Dec 10, 2025
I just had my first appointment with her on Mon., 12/08/25, and was very pleased with her knowledge of my history and treatment. (She was selected as a doctor for me by my retiring doctor, Dr. Emma Di'Iorio.)

Dec 5, 2025
Dr. Kumar is always ready to listen and is very thoughtful in her recommendations. She doesn't appear distracted by anything and we always feel she is totally focused on us, and considering our specific needs. We were late because we went to the wrong address but she graciously squeezed us in to another spot. Nobody does that!
