Dr. Ariza-Heart is a clear communicator and listens well. I have a complex medical history, and she didn't bat an eye. Her staff was very kind. I would recommend morning appointments just in case she does any testing that requires fasting and to get in as quickly as possible, as I would with most doctors.
Verified patient
I highly recommend Dr Ariza-Hart! I was looking for a new primary doctor and I have been let down many times. However, this time was very different and I was very satisfied and impressed. I am so thankful for Dr. Ariza Hart and her staff.
Verified patient
I was very impressed with Dr Ariza-Hart. I have a complicated medical history and she had no trouble sorting it out. I am bringing my entire family to her as our new primary care.
Verified patient
One of the best doctors I had. It felt like I was talking to a friend. The front staff was really friendly and welcoming as well.
Verified patient
I don’t recommend this doctor at all. Before even say “hello”, she started with “if you are here trying to get injectables, unfortunately I can’t prescribe it for you”. Well, guess what, that wasnt the reason why I was there. As a weight loss “expert” I thought she would be way better. She showed me a presentation about types of food. No diet prescribed, no follow ups. She prescribed me a medicine that never got to my pharmacy. And thank God! Because that medicine interact really bad with others I currently take. I message here about it and she said that yes there was an elevated risk of very bad interaction. I don’t understand why she prescribed me then. Trying to end my life??? Terrible experience.
Verified patient
Dr Hart was so wonderful, so kind. I felt very comfortable. She really listened to me and my concerns and was patient with me. I didn’t feel rushed, like some doctors are ready to get to the next patient. Her office was very nice, the young lady at the front was very sweet. The nurse that saw me first was also so lovely and reassuring. Had blood drawn and the phlebotomist was also super nice!
Verified patient
Best experience ever.
Verified patient
Friendly staff. The wait time was about 5 minutes and the doctor listens to my concern. I enjoy going to her because she works with me to find the best treatment plan.
Verified patient
The front office staff was prompt, polite and efficient. The doctor arrived in a timely manner after reading the information I had provided on medical history. She was attentive and addressed my needs accordingly.
Verified patient
I was bit wary because I was changing primary care doctors and I had a lot of conditions needing treatment. In comes Mrs. Hart and right away listened and addressed every issue and I didn't even have to tell her what I needed. She was very nice and smiling and thorough.
Verified patient
Quick and painless.
Verified patient
as soon as i walked in i was welcomed and the lady’s in the front were very accommodating! i didn’t wait long at all and the doctor was amazing!! she was so attentive and reassuring! i would definitely recommend her!
Verified patient
I needed to get some things sorted out before my appointment, but the staff was very friendly and did not rush me at all. The nurse had great bedside manner and a great conversationalist, as well as the doctor. Any questions I had she was more than willing to guide me through them.
