1/22/26. My doctor's visit today with Dr. Machua was excellent as usual 💫 as well as with the front office personnel checking me in and Dr.Machua's nurse.... they were very pleasant and helpful 💫 Dr. Machua has truly been a blessing in my treatment of my medical conditions 🙌 Last year, after I was informed that I needed to be treated by a Rheumatologist, and then after searching online at Piedmont.Org, I noticed Dr. Machua's superb reviews, I asked my doctor for a referral to Dr. Machua. From the very first visit with this EXCELLENT doctor, she directed me on a path to a much healthier body.... the pain that I was experiencing, and my mobility is much better now. I had started exercising and physical therapy. I complied with my doctors' treatment plans that were provided to me, and my body is in much better condition now. I must confess that when I slacked off from my treatment plan for a little while, my body started a decline. I have made the change now to continue back to my treatment plan 💫 Also I have solved my only issue of dreading the drive to my appointments there having to drive through the slow-moving heavy traffic through downtown. I now leave an hour earlier for my appointments, and now the slow paced traffic there doesn't bother me now because while cruising to the appointment, I don't feel rushed and frustrated because I now have plenty of time to arrive there early and have some chill time. I am very grateful for this helpful change because regardless of the distance and traffic frustrations, I would always deal with it if I had to in order to be able to continue to have SUPER FANTASTIC EXCELLENT DOCTORS like

She is a very caring professional — so thankful I waited to be able to see her seven years ago for my first appt.

The visit was good! She explained the symptoms of what I look for. I didn’t know it was a consult, my opinion maybe it could have be virtually.

Dr. Manchua is truly an outstanding rheumatologist. She takes the time to really listen, explain things clearly, and make sure I feel comfortable with my treatment plan. I never feel rushed during appointments, and she shows such genuine care and compassion. Her knowledge and attention to detail give me so much confidence in my care. I am grateful to have found a doctor who combines expertise with kindness — I highly recommend Dr. Manchua to anyone in need of a rheumatologist.

I would choose Dr. Machua again, again, and again. She’s the reason I keep coming back to Piedmont. Physicians like her are truly hard to come by. I never feel treated like just a number. 7 years later and she’s still #1 in my book

Dr. Machua is the reason I continue with Piedmont. She was the only Doctor that took interest in my condition and gave it a clear diagnosis and treatment plan. Nelta, I know I misspelled it. She’s a blessing as well. Both are the reason I still visit Piedmont for treatment. Please find more doctors that care about the patient. Please make sure both get the recognition they deserve.
