A true professional. I valued her taking the time needed to make sure all of my questions were answered and gave recommendations to consider.
Anna is pleasant and she really listens to you.
PA Ruiz was very thorough and took time to explain the results of the bloodwork. Thanks!
My experience with Dr. Amer Al-Khoudari and Anna Ruiz-Parga, PA, was extremely disappointing. As a veteran referred through VA Community Care, I expected compassion, professionalism, and an organized approach to establishing care. Instead, the appointment felt rushed and disorganized. Despite completing new-patient paperwork, there was confusion about my coverage and the purpose of my referral. The doctor asked, “Why are you here? Is it for your foot, or is it for autoimmune?” It did not appear my records had been thoroughly reviewed. Most concerning was the doctor's demeaning tone. I felt talked down to rather than treated with respect as a patient seeking help. The recommendations were to stop hydroxychloroquine, obtain an eye exam, complete blood work, and return in three months. I left feeling unheard, dismissed, and without a clear plan for managing my ongoing pain. Patients deserve to be listened to, treated with dignity, and given compassionate care. That didn't happen.
