Dr. Adriana Patricia Blanco, MD

I have been a patient for over 5 years and could not be happier. She has spent more time listening to me and getting to know me than any other doctor in 30 years. Always takes the time to listen and offer all alternatives to help manage my arthritis, not to mention that any time I have called to speak with her she has returned the call the same day. You could not find a more caring and thorough doctor. She is truly an advocate for her patients.

She needs to get her head out of her laptop and listen to the answers her patient gives to her questions. And don't try to add any additional commentary to your answers...she doesn't want to know anything else! Terrible listening skills caused her to FAIL at diagnosing my RA several years ago. Never even ordered a simple blood test! Just took one look at me and advised me to lose weight--it would help my joints. (Yep, that was her "expert" advice.) Can't believe I suffered so long before receiving a proper diagnosis...she really turned me off doctors after that one visit, for a long time. She should come down off her little high heels and learn what it means to be a true professional in the health field.

Overall... My suggestion... Look for another Dr... This one needs a much better bedside manner (caring)
