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.

Dr arja is fine. Staff….eh
I think it’s the chubbier old lady, she has been there since I was 15, and now I’m 28. She’s a bih lol. Seriously. And then she purposely dislikes me… doesn’t return calls. She’s making me consider leaving.

Short visits, seem to be in a hurry.
The medical assistant I saw first asked many questions. This shortened the amount of time Dr. Arja saw me. That is why I said, short visits, seems to be in a hurry.

He is a decent provider, however; his staff is very unprofessional. I requested a document to submit to my insurance. They declined. Don’t ask me why. My insurance paid for the service and I only needed a signature on a document. Not recommend.

Dr. Arja has been my doctor since 2007 - referred by head Emerg. Physician in Littleton Hosp. He's very gracious and knowledgeable - takes time to evaluate and spends time with me when there are health issues. Best doctor I've every had and sure won't change. Highly recommend him!! and the team.

Dr. Arja is such an amazing doctor! Gives you 100% every appointment.I'm so happy I have me a doctor that will help me understand everything even if I have a 1,000 questions. I love that he’s not a pill pusher and tries to really get to the bottom of the problem.

He's a joke. Only wants habitual patients that come in every 2 months.

Dr. Arja is the best doctor I have ever come across. He has been our family doctor for the past 9 years. They are great with getting an appointment for the next day and if an emergency will get us in the same day. He is very professional and caring.

Dr. Doesn't take the time to listen. Takes your money and rushes you out the door with no help for the reason you came to see him. Looking for new primary. He doesn't even practice D.O.
