Dr Niculescu is a excellent doctor! He is very compassionate and he comfort me when I went into his office crying and ready to give up. He reassure me that he will do everything to help me with my RA and psoriatic arthritis. when I go into his office I feel welcome and the staff are excellent. They are very polite and very quick to get you check in and ready to see the doctor. My wait time is kept to a minimum. He always followup with blood work every two months or so and keep you inform. Even when i call into the office I get quick service or a call back the same day. I was get infusions and the ladies in the back that attend to you for the infusions are very nice and pleasant. I now live in PA and I still drive to MD because he is suck a good doctor. He will always have me as a patient. Thank you Dr Niculescu!

Dr, N Is amazing. He diagnosed me with RA, when I already had Fibromyalgia and all other doctors thought my issues were either the Fibro or in my head. I LOVE HIM!!! No wait times either!!! 29 years in practice

I would definitely recommend this doctor to anyone needing a good rheumatologist. His diagnosis was quick and accurate and he double checked all the bloodwork after 2 months and again after the 4 month period to make sure there had been no false positives.
