Dr. Arenson is the best doctor I have ever seen. I credit him with saving my life in 2014. Even though he wasn't my Internist, he is the one that took charge of diagnosing me. I will never forget this man - he made you feel special and treated you in his special and excellent way. I keep hoping he will open another practice. I wish him well and hope he is enjoying retirement. He deserves the best of everything.

He's retired now, which is so so sad for me because they don't come like him anymore. He is the only doctor I've ever had who took the time to personally call me to follow up and check on me. Always made himself available and went the extra mile for me. I owe you my life Dr Arenson.

This is an excellent Dr., who appears to be very caring but highly qualified. I would highly recommend him and he was worth waiting for a month or two, to get in. In my experience, great Dr.'s - you typically have to wait awhile to get in - so just plan ahead. THank you Dr. Arenson!

His is interested in first addressing the symptoms, then finding the underline cause. Stays on top of his patients conditions. If you don't check in he will call you.
