Dr. Fondal has been my rheumatologist since 2017, she has work with me to find every option to make me feel better. Is the best rheumatologist you can ask for. She is very knowledgeable and and your health is the most important thing for her. She has a great staff and nurses. I thank God for help me find her❤️ God bless Dr. Maria Fondal

I was told by an Ortho Doctor he suspected I had arthritis in my shoulder. He recommended I follow up with a rheumatologist. The referred me, and I maade an appointment. At first the hard to understand person on the phone told me I had to be fully vaccinated for COVID to see the doctor. They called me two days prior to the appointment saying the doctor would only see me by video conference. I told the lady to cancel the appointment. I will fond a doctor that is willing to actually see me.

Dr. Fundal has very poor bedside manor. She was in the room for about 45 secs, long enough to bark orders out. I felt like she really didn't give any cares at all. Not the best first impression. The younger dr (cant remember her name) that was in my room before dr fundal was was MUCH nicer. Also it's basically impossible to get in touch with a human at this dr office. So all around not great.

I gave a 1 star because 0 wasn’t an option. My mother in law and husband took off work and drove 2 hours to her appointment that she had for 6 months prior. When they arrived, she was told her appointment was cancelled due to an insurance issue, but was never called. My husband offered to pay full price for the visit due to my mother in law desperately needing to see the doctor for her crippling rheumatoid arthritis. He was told that they were not accepting private pay right now. What kind of doctor’s office doesn’t accept cash in full at the time of the appointment???? We will never be back to see this doctor. He asked to speak to the doctor specifically, and the receptionist said he words were coming from the doctor. DO NOT USE THIS DOCTOR. I am a nurse so I understand the patient load some of these doctors have, but this was just ridiculous!
