I cannot say enough positive things about the care from Dr. Walsh; she gave us our daughter back…read more Dr. Walsh was attentive and took time to understand not only my daughter's condition but also her concerns. I was deeply impressed by her expertise, and her treatment was spot-on.

Why do I LOVE Dr. Walsh? Let me count the ways…read more.. Dr. Walsh does not take insurance, doesn't have any other doctors in her office, and doesn't have nurses or a receptionist. Scheduling is all online, through her very informative website. While some may see that as a negative, I see that as a positive, especially when looking at the cost of service. I am paying a low, preset fee to see the doctor. I am not also paying for a receptionist, an insurance billing specialist, and a nurse. I pay my $90, I send the bill to my insurance myself and I save a ton of money. Dr. Walsh does not have a receptionist or nurses. When I go see her, I see HER from start to finish, instead of passing through various people to get a hurried 10 minutes of time with a physician. Contacting her is also easier, because I don't have to go through multiple layers to get to her. You know how it usually goes....call the office, leave a message for the doctor, get a call back from the nurse, explain everything to the nurse, who will then discuss it with the doctor, only to get a call back from the nurse saying the doctor wants you to come in. Ugh. With Dr. Walsh, I email her directly, and she either emails or calls me back in hours, not days. If she can help without coming in to see her, she will. She is not in it for the cash. Dr. Walsh does not have back up doctors. This means you are never confronted with a total stranger if something happens. My niece had a rather unpleasant experience with a cyst, and not only did Dr. Walsh come into the office on a Sunday night to take care of it, she even offered to go to my niece if she couldn't drive herself. No backup doctor would do that. Actually, unless you are having a baby, no regular or backup doctor does anything after hours, you go to the ER with all the other injured/sick people. Dr. Walsh doesn't have a thousand patients. This allows her time to keep tabs on things like prescription prices, and where and how to get the best deal. Did you know that sometimes, it is cheaper to pay out of pocket instead of insurance? Neither did I, until she told me that my $35 inhaler through insurance was $12.50 at Costco if I didn't use my insurance. Copays are tricksy and she knows where you can get the best price. Because she keeps her patient list small, she knows her patients. Really KNOWS them... she doesn't need to look in my chart to know why I see her or what is going on. She knows my name, my history, my family, and all the other aspects that you learn about people you know. This is only part of why she is an excellent physician. And here is the really important part....she really is an excellent physician. She knows her stuff and she will take good care of you. You will feel cared for, not rushed through an antibiotics cattle call. If you are looking for a practice with lots of warm bodies to pay attention to you, then this isn't the practice for you. If you are looking for excellent medical care from a wonderful physician, you won't find better than Dr. Walsh.

DR. John A. Andrew is the most knowledgeable, compassionate physician I have ever known. He…read morelistens to you and hears things you don't even say. He is never afraid to refer you to other physicians or for testing elsewhere. I have had a long journey of illness and pain. He guided me to others for care and support. He stayed with my Husband until he passed away and honored him by attending his funeral. He discovered a disease that I had and will always have, that no specialist in any field had found. He is an amazing physician and human being. I am forever grateful for all the care he gave me and my husband.I will never forget him or how he saved my life more than once.

I don't like pills and am relatively healthy except for slightly elevated blood pressure (since my late teens).

The location is convenient, facility is clean and well cared for. The lab tech was on stick and painless. I don't think there is any way I could be more pleased.

Lifesaving Quality of life enhancing care!…read moreDr Shor listens - genuinely hears me. Dr Shor's dedicated, thorough, brilliant, up-to-date, compassionate, possesses both impressive decades of experience in treatment and research along with the finest skill set of ANY MD I have ever worked with .... EVERYTHING anyone would hope for in a physician but hardly ever finds. Frankly - without my health, I enjoy nothing. Therefore I don't mind paying for the care I need and deserve.

Dr. Shor is, without the slightest doubt, the finest doctor that I have ever encountered. I'm a…read morecynical fellow who's hard to impress, and there are a few other good doctors out there. But nobody, not even the good ones, can touch the level of care that Shor provides. He is off-the-charts smart, and he's dedicated to highly individualized care. He is open-minded but conservative, and his instincts are to be relied on without hesitation. He is also an exceptionally kind and decent man. When my daughter was quite ill and running low on options, Shor stepped in and saved the day. Since then, he's provided her with first-rate care as her general practitioner. Don't really know how to put it without sounding over-the-top and silly, but please take my word: He is simply the best there is.

In fall of 2023 I enrolled in the Lifetime Internal Medicine after my long time Physician had…read moreretired. I've been extremely impressed with the care I've received from both the doctors and their staff. In their Herndon location, they even have onsite ability to conduct standard serum testing. This streamlining for me is coupled with the extremely generous amount of time that doctors spend during appointments. I feel that the concierge practice model has provided care far exceeding what my old local medical practice had become after losing a few key physicians through retirement. I'm not sure if they are accepting new patients, but if Lifetime Internal Medicine is, I highly advise trying this 'small' team concierge solution as a return to times when medicine was practiced by Doctors instead of Doctors applying a one-size-fits-all template strategy for the codified roll-out of big-med:-)

I joined Dr. Marathe's practice after experiencing long waits to see my primary care physician in a large corporate practice and was forced to use my local Urgent Care for everyday health needs. I can't tell you what a relief it is to have found Dr. Marathe and a practice that puts patients first!

As has been stated a few times, occasionally timeliness can be an issue at this practice. However,…read moreI have grown beyond weary of practices that shove me in and out like cattle. "Patient in - check. Patient weighed- check. Patient seen for exactly 4.5 minuets - check. Patient checked out- check. Next patient...." and on and on and on the recycle wheel goes so they can make as much money as possible that day. I have also grown more than beyond weary of the insurance companies dictating to me and my doctor the care that we will adhere to or else! For these two reasons, I am thrilled to go to Dr. DeRusso (among other reasons I will list). She takes time to really LISTEN and FOCUS on you, the patient. There is no "hurry up and get out of here, so I can get to the next patient and get more money." AND, Dr. D is the doctor-- NOT the insurance company!! If she determines (along with you) that the best course of action is thus and such, it is because, in her best informed estimate. that is the best course of action. Not because that is what the insurance dictates to her that she has to do. I have been with Dr. D for 5 years now, and I've not regretted one minute taking the responsibility of taking my own health care in my own hands and out of the dictates of the insurance/ big pharma sphere. It may seem expensive at the onset, but, honestly, in the end, it hasn't been awful. And, Dr. D will always try to find ways to help you save. I had to have my gallbladder removed, and Dr. D helped me by recommending a doctor that not only took my insurance, but knows Dr. D and said he could not speak highly enough of her. When a doctor says that in all sincerity about another doctor, that's says a lot! I absolutely love her! She has always taken time with me, listened to me, is very honest, has given me superb diagnosis when needed. I have always felt like she had my best interest at heart and is a very personable doctor and friend. Her staff is superb! As with Dr. D, I cannot speak highly enough of them. They are personable, reliable, really take care with each individual. They do not forget you are a person! They don't treat you like a number to be shuffled in and out through the recycle door. If I could give this practice 10 stars, I would! Sammie

She will respond to my texts during off hour questions and always has time to schedule an appointment with me should I or should she feel that is necessary.

Recently she was able to alleviate some anxiety by accessing the results from some tests which turned out to be just fine. However, without her intervention, I would have had to wait. I am very pleased with that level of caring and service. Her assistant, Abby is also pleasant, professional and caring. She is a real boon to the office as Abby is the first person with whom a person interacts when visiting the office. I have never had to wait more that just a couple of minutes for my schuduled appointment. In addition, Abby has drawn blood from my arm with no pain and no bruising. While I certainly know this is not a for sure in the future, so far she has done really well and I appreciate that too!! I completely recommend Dr. Anne and Abby.
