I have had RA for 20 years this year, in the beginning I was at a different group of doctors. For 2 years I suffered because no one would listen that the meds were not working. I searched for a new group of doctors and found RDC Dr. Oelke, is the kind of doctor you would have had 50 plus years ago. He takes time to talk to you and not just as a patient but a person. He also takes the time to explain procedures and medicine so that you feel comfortable with what you are putting in your body. Discusses options and talks you through the whole deal. . He's quite an asset to the Rheumatic Disease group of doctors. Honestly I had seen another "doctor" at RDC prior to Dr. Oelke that could take a lesson or two on patient/doctor interaction. I requested a new doctor and am happy I did, Dr. Oelke is the best.

Dr. Oelke was very personable and kind. He spent a lot of time with me and explained what my condition was. While he thought that my primary doctor would continue monitoring my condition he said that if the need arises could come back to see him for follow-ups. .He made me feel st ease as did the rest of the staff. Everything was very professional and I would recommend him and the clinic

Many MD’s “practice” medicine. He practices compassion. As a retired nurse, I will say he is one of the good one.
