Dr. Richard Hariman, MD

I wish everyone I dealt with in my work was as kind, friendly and prepared as the staff serving Dr Hariman. They are the best! Always polite and professional. A+ all the way around and of course that includes Dr Hariman!

Dr Hariman is an excellent provider.

Dr Hariman and his clinic staff are excellent and I feel lucky to have them as part of my care team.

It was good. Thanks.

His lack of thoroughness and biased nature leaves a great deal of room for misdiagnosis or no diagnosis. Arrogant, Prideful, Narrow-minded. His lack of insight into his own weaknesses limits his ability to admit he may be wrong. I’m not even sure what he is able to diagnosis or treat. Probably obvious textbook cases. Shame to the profession.

Doesn’t do thorough review of medical records to obtain comprehensive picture of the patient. Poor knowledge base beyond the basics, which limits his ability to diagnosis more complex cases. Closed minded. Doesn’t acknowledge potential error in diagnosis. It’s a shame he continues to practice given his lack of passion in treating patients.

I had to see the Dr. due to sudden changes in my body and bones. I felt he took time out to listen to me and look at my test results. He is to the point, which I don't mind, he is not rude or arrogant. I feel if someone felt he was rude and arrogant I would wonder how they had spoken to him to get that reaction. The news the Dr. gave me was not good news, yet I never felt he didn't care about my situation.

I disagree with the other rater. I saw 3 rheumatologists when trying to arrive at a diagnosis. Dr. Hariman was very thorough and understanding of my fears and anxieties. He gave me the information that I needed without being an alarmist. Yes, he is rather "straight to the point", but I like that style. As far as follow-up, his e-mail system is wonderful and he responds to my questions often within a few hours. I do recommend him.

Dr. Hariman's bedside manner is awful. He was clearly not prepared for my visit and had not read extensive notes from other providers. His recommendations are basic and textbook - not worth your time, money, or effort. If you do not care for his flat, ambivalent presentation, this clinic offers you no alternatives as they prohibit requests to transfer to another physician. Choose carefully - and don't choose this one!
