Arlington Family Practice, PA

I have been a patient here for awhile and have zero complaints. I see Dr. Aramath primarily but I’ve also seen Dr. Rice. I can’t say one negative thing about either doctor, they are both professional, knowledgeable and personable. The staff (nurses, receptionists, etc.) have always been terrific as well. I have seen a lot of doctors over the past several years, and I have had some terrible experiences so I have quite a bit of experiences for comparison.

I wrote review on here before. Don’t know what happened to it. Huummm. I went here. Mainly to Dr. Dennis. I would see others if she was not available. She retired last December. Only fault on her part is not knowing that until I call in for a appointment in Nov. and told me. Than I was dropped as a patient all together. That no one was accepting new patients. NEW? than sent me a letter to not call back. Because I was calling and asking why. I paid my bills on every visit. Never had out standing balance. I went there for 20 + years. I have never been treated like this before. Maybe that is why Dr. Dennis retired. I still have not found another Doctor. You know you get used to going somewhere and feel comfortable. Not that it is that great of a place. . Just sad how I was treated when I did nothing to deserve it. You where wrong !!! Hope you are never treated like this.

I have been going here to see Dr Dennis for over 20 years. She was an amazing Dr, with a lot of knowledge that she shared generously. She would help me look for natural options to help with almost any condition and I would rather not take medication unless it is the absolute best option. She just retired, so I was set up to see her replacement, Dr. Aramath.
We spent some time chatting (what a refreshing start!). Then when we had a chance to see what I needed and what she could do, we could see it was not a good fit for us. So I will look for a different primary care physician. But she made sure I had what I needed to get by until I could find someone else.
She was so genuine, empathetic and compassionate that I am sorry I will not be continuing with her. I would highly recommend Dr. Aramath to anyone. This practice has been so good to work with, I will miss them. I also loved the opportunity to get to know this woman and together have a conversation specific to what would be the best for me.

Let me start by saying I rarely visit the doctor. I have lived in Arlington for 4 years and have been to see a general doctor twice.
I made an appointment in this office with Dr. Truong earlier this year to see about weight loss options. I could only see the nurse since I was a new patient (which was fine) and she acted disgusted with me that I would come in asking for help losing weight and sent me on my way. I decided I wasn’t going to go back there for any reason in the future.
This morning I woke up with what I think is strep throat. Since they already had my information and I can’t seem to find anyone else close that is accepting new patients with my insurance, I decided to go ahead and give them a call. The receptionist answered the phone, asked me who my doctor was and told me she could get me in at 10:45. She then asked me my name and then said she had to go ask the doctor. She came back on and said they could not offer me any further care because I walked out last time.
That is what I was told to do! Mind you, I did not make a scene when the nurse told me they couldn’t help me. I thanked her and left. I understand diet and exercise is the preferred method of weight loss and believe me I have tried that. I did not know there was anything wrong with asking for other options to help.
I do not remember the last time I felt so insulted. If you are thinking of visiting this doctor, I would advise you to keep looking.
