June 12, 2023Angella M.Verified patient
Dr. Kumthekar was a bit younger than I expected. However, I immediately liked his willingness to listen. I did not feel rushed and he seemed genuinely concerned about my issues. He also was quite knowledgeable and offered a doable plan to help me get better. Therefore, in spite of his youth I felt very comfortable with the cleanliness of the office, friendliness of the staff???? and relieved to have found a rheumatologist I hope I Can build a relationship. with. One who will have my best interest at heart, and who is more concerned about me than about prescribing another pill.? The fact that I no longer have to travel into Manhattan to find a good rheumatologist is refreshing. So I am going to try to stick with this doctor and see if together we can ?help me live my best life.

Dr. Anand Kumthekar was great. He is very professional and yet very comfortable to talk to. I did not continue to see him because I had moved to far away from him. But once you have him as a Doctor, keep him. You won't be disappointed.
