Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

One of the best!
I saw Dr Arason after a car accident out of state as a follow up from the hospital once home. He not only took time to listen to the situation but took the time to get to know me as a person as well. He was extensive and patient. I was very impressed. Since then, I have transferred my children to his care as their primary. He is one that actually cares and tales his time. We feel heard!!! We trust his judgment and care. We would highly recommend him.

I transferred care to this facility for a new primary care provider and I was seen by Doctor Einar Arason. I came to him with severe respiratory issues and severe fatigue that i was having following a surgery at another establishment. I also was being seen for continued care of a severe vitamin D deficiency. He treated me as if I was a child and vitamin d deficiency wasn't a thing. He refused to listen to a word I said. He told me all my symptoms were from allergies. He refused to even consider the possibility that I had a respiratory infection of any kind, even though I had pictures showing the debris I had been coughing up daily. He wouldn't refer me to anyone for any reason even though I asked him to. He then just basically wrote me off as if that was it, and there was no need for me to come back for any reason. I had to later call and beg this clinic to refer me to a pulmonologist. Many months later I was diagnosed with hemophilous influenzae b pneumonia and staphylococcus aureus.

Dr. Arason is incredible. I have a lot of chronic health issues, making me quite a complex patient. Dr. Arason always makes me feel at ease and confident in his competence and makes me feel like he's actually listening and responding appropriately to my concerns. Plus, he's a total fox.
