Dr Afroz is a very caring and knowledgeable physician about rheumatoid arthritis but my only negative comment would be that it would be less stressful for a patient if she would give at least one refill on all prescriptions. When getting a new prescription of only 90 tablets but not seeing her again for 6 months creates an extra phone call which creates waiting time for the patient. I realize she is very cautious about drugs that could be dangerous , and that is a good thing, however, when a patient has severe painful arthritis and has been on these drugs for a lengthy time it would be less stressful of having to always call for a new prescription.
