I made an appointment using their online system the night before. I came in close to my appointment time and come to find out the doctor available online wasn't there that day. I ended up waiting almost an hour to be seen which sucked but it is a clinic so it's to be expected. Just disappointed that they had an option to make an appointment but wasn't being utilized that day?? I was told that the available doctor was running behind. I believe there was only 1 doctor available. We ended up seeing Dr. Mennan. He was the same doctor we saw last time and had a wonderful experience. He walked in with a warm and welcome smile on his face which immediately made me feel comfortable as oppose to just another patient. He was very professional; knowledgeable; and took his time to LISTEN to what was going on. I didn't feel rushed at all. He seemed to genuinely care how we were feeling and gave us recommendations as well as a prescription to treat us. Dr. Mennan exceeded our expectations with this visit and we will be returning to him if we need any additional medical care.

Dr Gallini has been my doctor since I was a small child (decades ago BTW). He is ALWAYS friendly…read more I am very verbal and could talk one's ear off. He always listens and makes solid suggestions. I now have children of my own and I really appreciate his patience. Despite the fact that he has been in practice for a few years (ahem *cough*) Dr. Gallini is very knowledgeable about current medical trends and changes. Dr. Gallini is NOT a prescription pusher. If you're wanting a doctor that will just do what you tell him/her to do and give you a prescription...don't see Dr. Gallini. He will only prescribe what he feels is most appropriate for the patient, IF anything is appropriate. He will not hesitate to tell you that what you have just has to run its' course...in the nicest way possible. :o) As with most doctors, if you have somewhere to be, make your appointment for first thing in the morning or the last appointment of the day. Dr. Gallini likes to talk with his patients, which has the potential negative side effect of always running a bit behind schedule. But I'll take 10-15 minutes behind schedule over a doctor who rushes me through like a product on an assembly line. If you need to make a routine appointment (physical, etc.) call the office as early as possible. Dr. Gallini's schedule fills up REALLY quickly. It's pretty common to make a yearly physical appointment 2-3 months out. That being said, though, I have been able to get more urgent issues seen much more quickly (sometimes even the same day.) Plan ahead when you can and cross your fingers when you can't! ;o) The office staff is, largely, good. There are several of the office ladies who have been there for awhile and know what's going on. You'll figure out who they are pretty quickly. There are also several positions that change personnel regularly. This seems to be true at many doctor's offices. Just keep notes of who you talk to, date/time, etc. JUST IN CASE you run into issues and need to reference your contact. But I think that's just good practice in general. OVERALL: The fact that I have been seeing Dr. Gallini since I was a small child and I now bring my own children to see him should speak volumes for what I think of this doctor. There are other doctor(s) in the practice with him, but I will only make my appointments with Dr. Gallini (unless we have some kind of HUGE child-illness related issue and don't have a choice.) He's a good man who truly cares about his patients. I probably shouldn't have told you about him..... ;o)

I'll update my review later down the road but I'd feel remiss not giving 5 stars from the get-go; at only a few days post-op I am off all PPIs, active, and understand any discomfort I'm feeling. I also have a thorough list of foods to eat each week of my recovery. There have been no surprises and that tells me how well prepared I was for the procedure. When I was in the recovery room the nurse checked my incisions and actually remarked that "it must be Dr. Gillian" and every nurse/practitioner I encountered seemed to hold his work in equally high esteem. My Mom was an RN for over 35 years and always used to joke "one of them graduates top of the class, the other last, but they both wear a white coat..." It's pretty clear that Dr. Gillian and Divya are metaphorical top of their class and even teach/lecture in the field. It's not about the reputation to me but rather knowing they have done so many of these that if some odd thing went left, they would know how to react. One note: Dr. Gillian is not going to baby you or dispense platitudes. In my case, managing my weight aggressively is a significant part of my care. I was prepared to hear that and though in the moment I might've wished for a gentler "delivery", I prefer honesty and facts - I have plenty of friends and family to be gentle. And, by following instructions pre-procedure to the letter, I have already dropped 13 lb (12 pre-surgery). This feels like a new lease on life.

It is a health facility. I went upstairs to the office and people were sitting and one woman was standing on a blue floor circle waiting for one of two female staffer behind the window to take their name and reason for the visit. One staffer was helping a woman and had to verbalize to the staffer closest to the entry door to the office a few times that I was standing there and waiting. I am tall and hard to miss. It gave the impression that she did not want to help me, especially when I noticed how she rapidly helped other people who came in and stood on one of the two blue circles (helps with socially distancing I believe). Also, I had to go downstairs to get an Xray and was visibly in discomfort, yet one of the female staffers behind a window made me walk over a few times (different counters) and then told me to sign in on the other side, etc. I got the impression that she did not want to do her job and could care less if someone is in pain or not.

I was told by a doctor named Steven Chen that he wasn't going to help someone like me. Who is like me? Waited 3 hrs for help and was treated like an animal once I wanted to expose the way I was getting treated. The nurses demanded I leave and didn't want to help once Chen said something to them. I never yelled or was angry. I just said i was going to record them. They WILL ADD THEIR OWN OPINIONS AND HOW THEY FEEL ONTO YOUR MEDICAL RECORDS. NO FACTS OR PROOF NEEDED. Chen even put in my medical notes. I was highly upset because I didn't get high-level medication. After the fact, he said what he said to me and threw my papers in my lap and walked out. After not getting assistance for 2 hours.. he was more upset i was going to record him. Way more than me being neglected and talked down to. Trying to cover his own actions, falsifying my medical records to make it look like it's about medication and not his neglect as a doctor, along with his unnecessary comments. I said multiple times that I just needed help at that moment. He even pressed on my injured area 3 times and saw my pain. Why hurt your patient and not even do anything to help. I felt like he didn't see me as human, especially when the nurse came and just pulled my iv out of my arm and said, "You need to leave. ".. NO hi or are you okay.. just yanks my iv out, and i need to leave. Idk why I even had an IV to start.. no one told me what was happening, and one nurse told me to shhh when I asked questions about my x-rays. I'm at the ER for a reason, I needed HELP. Couldn't manage the pain on my own any longer. When I asked for pain relief, "You're not getting it from me," Is what Chen said. I asked for another doctor, and he leaned back against the counter, crossed his legs, laughs, and said he was the only. You can tell he enjoyed having power over my pain. They are not here to help US. On top of that, Brian Miller from INOVA compliance department calls so I can make a statement to INOVA and says, " Well, what do you want me to do about it?" Its like no one wants to do their job. They don't care about "people like me" I'm trying to figure out still, who's like me? Who do I need to be to get help?.. it's scary that doctors don't have to actually help and they can say what they want and get away with it. RECORD NO MATTER WHAT THEY SAY..they don't want you to because they are acting very foul there.

We previously went…read moreto the Hinson Farm Road practice for many years and loved it, but started going to the Lorton office when we moved down to that area. The two practices are night and day. I will say this: The Lorton office itself is nice, clean, and modern, and many of the nurses and phlebotomists are wonderful and the ONLY reason this is a 2-star review rather than a 1-star. Because the front desk staff comes off as completely disinterested, it takes forever to get anyone on the phone, and we have had a number of communication issues between the office and our pharmacy with regards to prescription refills. But these are just minor annoyances in the grand scheme of things. What is completely unacceptable is the way the doctor treats patients, and specifically their time. On three separate occasions, we have been called back (or, in the age of COVID, logged on for a virtual appointment) and been kept waiting more than 45 minutes to be seen by Dr. Herrara. The excuse is always the same: Just a generic "He's running behind." Well, to my mind, that's a scheduling issue. But when he does finally grace us with his presence, he does not apologize for or even acknowledge being so extraordinarily late. To add insult to injury, he has been blatantly rude/dismissive of me when I take her in, because he has to speak Spanish to her but English to me. I understand that's a pain, but after being kept waiting so long, the very last thing I expect from him is to receive attitude so that we can effectively communicate with regards to her health needs. It is hard finding good doctors in the area who speak both English and Spanish fluently, but I would still recommend looking elsewhere unless you have 1.5-2 hours to spend in the doctor's office each time you come in.

Dr. Marcus is one of the best local orthopedic surgeons with a focus on sports-related injuries. He is one of the frontrunners in cartilage regeneration and uses micro fracture and PRP injections. Office staff was great and Dr. Marcus made me feel very confident about the outcome. Surgery was quick and went well. Rehab was done at the physical therapist co-located with his Springfield office. I may have lost a few degrees of rsnge of motion (expected and disclosed beforehand), but was ablemto return to golf after about 6-month recovery/rehab. No problems since (3years). Late last fall I developed tennis elbow as a result of overuse playing/practicing golf. Went to see Dr. Marcus again. Same great experience. He evaluated the pain and used ultrasound to look for tears/fraying. He gave me the option of a cortisone or platelet rich plasma (PRP) injection. PRP is the new-age alternative to cortisone. They draw your blood and spin it down in a centrifuge and inject a high concentration of platelet rich plasma at the site of inflammation. It's basically the same concept as with microfrature use stem cells to allow the body to heal itself. It's still considered experimental in the US - so it's considered elective and costs almost $1500 vs a cortisone injection. However since it's your body's own cells there is no limit to the number of injections like there is with cortisone shots. Anyway Dr. Marcus numbed my elbow and gave me multiple injections while using the ultrasound to ensure he was hitting the right spots and not damaging the tendons. Pain releif was immediate. Started wearing a Band-It elbow brace and have not had any further issues. Can't say enough about Dr. Marcus's bedside manner and confident attitude. He sees so many young high school athletes with severe injuries that my aging 40 year old issues are cake. Thanks Doc!!!
