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.

Excellent Doctor
I’ve been seeing Dr. Arami for at least 28 years. I totally love her. She’s the best doctor I’ve ever had. She’s very thorough and caring. I wish all doctors were like her.

#1 Doctor hands down!
Dr. Arami is the best doctor. There is not enough space for me to write about how kind and caring Dr. Arami is. She really listens and cares for her patients. She takes the time to respond to your every need. Dr. Arami will call you if you have an issue that needs to be addressed no matter what day it is. She is very knowledgeable when it comes to my needs. I highly recommend her. I wish I could give her more stars.

Best Rheumatologist in US of A
Dr. Arami is able to handle and solve extremely complex rheumatological cases. I had been experiencing debilitating symptoms that interfered with my daily functioning to the point where I had to drop out of school. I saw many physicians and they were at a loss at what would be wrong with a 27 year old. Dr. Arami was able to diagnose and treat me and now I have graduated from law school.

Not good for my condition
I have a much rarer condition and when I saw Dr. Arami over a year ago she was very dismissive saying I didn’t fit the criteria and that I couldn’t possibly have something so rare. Well now I’ve had other doctors tell me they think I do have this condition, and I am pursuing a second opinion. But because it took so long (almost a year) to get in to see this doctor and it takes similarly long to get genetics testing for it I have been delayed at least 2 years for this diagnosis and have had to endure so much pain because of her dismissing it as “fibromyalgia” (which is very real but does not fit me) and untreatable. There are lots of treatments for this condition. It was so frustrating.
What went well
  • Staff friendliness
  • Appointment wasn't rushed
What could be improved
  • I didn't feel respected
  • Difficult to schedule appointment
  • Didn't listen or answer questions
  • Didn't explain conditions well
  • Didn't trust the provider's decisions
  • Long wait times
