3 months agoDr. Arabshahi is compassionate, and above all very competent. I feel very reassured with our daughter under her care. You never feel rushed in appointments. Feels like she's walking right by your side through everything. She leaves ample time for questions and concerns, and completes exams slowly and methodically. She even goes over the pharmaceutical company website with you to help you find practice videos for how to administer injections, and even explains how the insurance approval process works for the otherwise cost-prohibitive drugs required to treat JIA. What doctor takes the time or has the interest to do that nowadays? My shy daughter finds Dr. Arabshahi's calm and caring demeanor so reassuring. Such a wonderful combination of expertise, experience, and extraordinary people skills. She is an answer to prayer.
