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 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. 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.

Also, a few years ago Dr. Eisenbaum diagnosed my mom's best friend with thyroid cancer during a routine physical. She then went to a top thyroid cancer specialist at Johns Hopkins who said that he would not have caught the cancer because there were little to no visible symptoms. It ended up being Anaplastic Thyroid cancer, which is the most rare and serious type, with horrible survival rates. But because it was caught so early thanks to Dr. Eisenbaum, it was successfully removed and my mom's friend is doing well.

Finding a doctor can be such a daunting task sometimes. Especially if you're a hypochondriac, like…read moreme. Does this doctor have credentials? What are the office hours like? What are my chances of scoring an appointment last minute? Will they think I'm weird if I ask too many questions?! I was recommended to come see Dr. Thathagari at the NOVA Medical Services Center from a co-worker of mine who too can relate to my nonsense hypochondriac concerns. I thought I had meningitis (turns out it was more or less just a bad headache) but Dr. Thathagari answered my countless questions and concerns with a high level of professionalism but also with a slight sense of good natured humour. One thing that is comforting is if you call the office after hours if you have a question or suddenly get sick, Dr. Thathagari always checks the office voicemail and sometimes calls are forwarded to her cell phone. That is SERVICE if I've ever seen it!! I've never had a doctor do that before. So awesome. It's nice to know that doctors have that much concern for their patients. As for finding appointments-- I was able to get a weekend appointment with no problem at all. Their hours are pretty flexible and the office is open, at the latest, around 6 pm on weekdays. So if need be, you can schedule an appointment and not have to take time off from work-- a win-win situation. One thing to be wary about is that this doctor's office is shared with a pediatrician's office-- I rolled up to the office and I got some odd looks-- people must've thought I was lost! Rest assured though, you're definitely in the right place.

When I say children, my 2 kids had pediatricians but did not always get the attention I felt comfortable with and so brought them both to Dr. Idrees for second opinions since I had come to respect and trust his medical expertise. He has always treated us as family and been genuinely concerned with our health and always made sure to remind us and recommend best courses of action for whatever scenario. As I get older I have specialists for varied med issues, but i always make sure Dr. Idrees gets updates and reports from those specialists as his stamp of approval on procedures reassures me and lets me know I'm following the correct course of action. Only once did I not follow his advice on a specialist and I regretted it afterward! I have had many GP's throughout my life, but none has had such a positive impression on me as much as Dr. Idrees. I have the utmost respect for his professionalism, his whole body approach (including mental aspects of healthcare), his kindness and caring. My kids are both grown now and have their own lives, but they still see doctor idrees and in fact one even brought her new boyfriend to see him when he had a medical concern. I only wish all doctors in 2023 cared and were as professionally reliable and competent as Dr. Idrees is.
