    Not a single complaint.
    Jan 10, 2023
    I am never rushed by Dr. Dietz during any appointment, no matter the length of appointment that my condition at the time requires. He actively listens, evaluates, and makes a solid, intelligent plan. My overall health has improved since I first started seeing him after several years of my local rheumatologist referred me to him to get me out of a health rut. I've had several excellent rheumatologists, but I have to say he has been the best: most thorough, analytical, highly educated, and very amiable. Appointments are a pleasant experience no matter how much pain I'm in!
    Dec 02, 2022
