Dr. Arya is always welcoming and caring. She makes sure I’m comfortable and understanding of my situation. She answers any questions I have and assure I understand everything. Her staff is always polite when taking my vitals. I have been coming to Dr. Arya for 6 years now and I’m glad I found this clinic.

Dr Arya has been my doctor for over 10 years. She saved my life and helped me through a devastating period of my life. I trust her implicitly and will continue to see her until she chooses to retire.

Post-Partum Appointment
I believe that I was mixed up with another patient. Not sure if there supposed to be a postpartum check up of my body by the doctor, but that didn’t happen. The doctor asked me how I felt and spoke with me about birth control and what options I had. It was strange to me when the doctor mentioned taking “thyroid medication” I never have been on any thyroid medication which led me to believe that I was mixed up with another patient. I started researching what should happen at the 6 week PP appointment and none of the checkups happened to me. So I’m concerned now and waiting to call the office to get some information

My appointment was at 12:30. Upon my arrival I overheard the front office staff talking about how the doctor was going to be upset because she was double booked. I was called back at 1:00 for vitals by a very nice nurse and then sent back to the waiting room because they didn't have a patient room available. At 1:15 I was finally brought to a room and seen by the doctor about 10 minutes later. My experience with Dr. Arya was great as always. Check out was a hot mess. The lady at the counter didn't appear to know what she was doing and it took me almost 15 minutes just to check out. I had to fill out a form to request records and she had me looking up additional things not on the form to make her job easier and further delaying me getting back to work. I understand that OBGYN appointments can often be unpredictable with deliveries but that was not the case in this situation. If I had be almost an hour late my appointment would have been canceled and I would have been charged. Front office staff play a huge role in making the patients experience as tolerable as possible. I wasn't dissatisfied because I love my doctor but I left very frustrated by the other processes of the appointment.
