Dr Barnes is an excellent doctor who genuinely cares for his patients. I have been his patient now for five years and he has been wonderful. His office has a very friendly and home-like atmosphere and the staff is very friendly. Dr Barnes does a very thorough eye check-up and also factors in other health issues to make his diagnosis. He is very personable and makes you feel comfortable. He goes out of his way to treat patients, even staying after office hours when I once needed an emergency procedure. It is indeed great to find such doctors who have their patients' well-being at heart, and not just the money.

I've been with Dr. Jacobs for well over a decade. He's seen me through everything from minor sinus infections to major surgery. No, he's not cheapest doctor in DC but I doubt that he's the most expensive. Besides, you get what you pay for, and he's worth every penny. Dr. Jacobs is an outstanding physician. He is always available for his patients, makes room on his calendar (usually the same day) to see acutely ill patients and is EXTREMELY well regarded by other physicians. And, by the way, he is anything but abusive. He often engages in phone conversations with his patients (for free) that are longer than the in office appointments that other doctors provide. For example, when my father was on a respirator and I needed advice Dr. Jacobs spent half an hour on the phone with me explaining exactly what questions to ask of my father's physicians and telling me what to expect as my dad's condition worsened. Not only did he do this for free, he made it a point to call back later to see how I was doing.

Metro GI has the friendliest nursing staff I have ever encountered. They've been more than accomdating on some last minute appointments i have made, as well.
Dr Korman is an excellent GI and an all around very friendly and warm person. He treats his patients as individuals, and doesn't just treat the disease. I highly recommend him.

These guys are great. I never have to wait long for an appointment, and my exams have always been thorough. Dr. Strauss helped me find a contact lens that works for me, which included trying out a few different options. She was always patient with me and my complaints about them. Great selection of eyeglasses, too.

I needed a full phsyical and a coworker suggested Dr. Rashbaum's office. The receptionist, Damien, was extremely professional and helpful- I had been calling around for a variety of medical appointments that week and was so tired of unprofessional, unintelligible and sometimes rude receptionists. Calling Dr. Rashbaum's office was a nice change.
I made an appointment with Dr. Sylvia Medley- Dr. Rashbaum wasn't available. The office is located a few blocks off of Dupont in the Human Rights Campaign building. The office is so welcoming- Damien took care of my sign in and I only waited about 10 min to go in. There was an adorable "office dog" in the waiting room.
Dr. Medley was great- very nice and efficient. The guy who drew my blood- I think his name was Tom- was again SO nice and he did a great job- I barely noticed him fill three vials!
They were great about getting the paperwork on the physical ad all my tests to me. A couple months later I needed some help wth a prescription and they helped me out the same day. I am so impresed with this office and will definitely be going back (hopefully just for routine checkups!)

This guy has been a pediatrician for probably over 100 years, conducting business out of the basement of his house, with his wife as his assistant. But over those 100 years, he has developed an amazing following of folks from the area that absolutely love him. He's great with kids and is the perfect doctor to get to know that can take care of any random ailment that might inflict your children, and he's more than happy to help you out with that nagging cold too!

I have been going to Tirdad for several years now. He is the best dentist I've ever had. He is very friendly and professional. His office staff are also supremely helpful. If I haven't scheduled a 6-month visit, they call me personally to set something up. The dental hygenists there are also good.
Finally, the equipment in the office is all brand-new and top notch. I schedule all of my appointments at 1 pm so I can watch Days of Our Lives from the flat-screen TV above the patient's chair!
Another plus is the free parking available below the building!

Dr. Jensen works at the Friendship Heights Chiropractic clinic and is the best chiropractor I have ever experienced. The office is brisk & efficient, they can get you in fast if you are in an emergency pain level situation. They are also fantastic at figuring out exactly what your insurance will cover. Dr. Connelly is also in the practice and he is also a fine practitioner of the art of adjustment.

Friendship is a tip-top operation -- almost. Its fairly new building near the Tenleytown metro station is sleek, clean and modern. It's organized. An online service reminds you when your pet needs to come in for a check up or vaccinations. And there is a mail newsletter and a sophisticated website as well. My only beef with Friendship is that not all of the staff are well-versed enough in bedside manner. When my last cat was dying (unbeknownst to me), I spent an awful week taking her back and forth to Friendship. One vet barely spoke to me and offered vague answers to my questions. Another told me my cat was going to be OK, yet didn't seem to be familiar with her history. Finally, on a day when she was clearly deteriorating, I raced her to Friendship - again. Fortunately, the vet on duty was very kind and told me the truth -- that she had a few hours to live. She helped me through the whole painful process and, when my cat did pass away on her own about an hour later, let me take as much time as I needed to be with her. When I got a new kitten sometime later, I was lucky enough to have another kind and smart vet for her first checkup. My advice....do patronize Friendship, but find a vet that you like and stick with that one. Ask for that one in particular when you make appointments. Otherwise, you may wind up with some smart yet insensitive twit who is better suited to laboratory work.
