Patient Reviews
Apr 30, 2023
Outstanding diagnostician, very caring and kind. I have a rare disease that had gone undiagnosed by my prior rheumatologist. Dr. A diagnosed me at my first visit. Through the ups and downs of my disease, he has been so diligent in finding the right treatment for me. He’s always available. My pulmonologist, also at Lahey, told me that I was lucky to have him as a doctor.
