Dr M doesn’t rush me through the process. She spends as much time with me as I need to understand everything that’s going on with my situation.

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.

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.

I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Machua and the outstanding care I received. From my very first appointment, it was clear that this wasn’t just a job for them – it’s a calling. Dr. Machua took the time to not only understand my medical history but also to really listen to how I was feeling, physically and emotionally. What stood out the most was how far they went to ensure I was cared for. Whether it was following up personally after hours, helping coordinate with specialists, or making sure I understood every step of my treatment plan, Dr. Machua went well beyond what most would expect. They treated me like a person, not just a patient. In a healthcare system where things often feel rushed or impersonal, Dr. Machua a rare gem. Their compassion, dedication, and attention to detail gave me confidence and peace of mind when I needed it most. I am so grateful to have found such a committed and thoughtful doctor. Highly recommend to anyone looking for exceptional care that goes the extra mile.
