I am not sure if it is a staffing shortage or if staff keeps leaving because of the doctor, but…read moreforget getting records sent to a PCP, I have been trying for months. The appt itself was good, Dr. Chada appeared to take me seriously, excellent bedside-manner. She ran a slew of tests which was great, the not-so-great part is it took about an hour for her office to send the orders for the draws. I had to go back over twice to see what the issues were, no one ever could say. Two tests came back with massive warnings on them and then I was blown off entirely and told that the tests did not mean anything. The comments on the tests were not sophisticated in nature and only appeared after a month when I said "WTF is up". Almost seemed more like office staff trying to cover up missing calling me. I was highly annoyed with the assumption of diabetes and high cholesterol, BTW all came back with flying colors (check Quest). I am overweight because I hurt literally from head-to-toe and I am under an insane amount of stress, not because I sit around and eat bon-bons all day, but thanks for perpetuating the myth. My main issue is that at the appt in August, DR. Chada diagnosed fibromyalgia and said she would send the diagnosis and recommended prescriptions to PCP, that was in August, it is now December and I have made multiple requests and guess what my PCP still does not have? Rheumatologists are in high demand because there are not many of them, my guess is if she diagnosis you with a rheumatological issue she is likely excellent, if it is too iffy (ie low results on tests) then she is not going to have time for you. I am giving her the benefit of the doubt on a comment she made in respect to "not a great gene pool to start from"; I have said the same myself, but it still did not sit well the way it was said, almost felt more like a comment on the fact that I appear entirely of European descent. I have been called a "ghost" in the past (look it up, it is derogatory) and the tone and posture came a bit too close to past incidents for my comfort. She would have gotten a great review, but the inability to get the records to my PCP dictates a bad score, just maybe this review will result in those results going over.

Don't bother trying to schedule, she's entirely to busy to see new patients.read more

I'm new to Austin so it can be challenging to find a provider you feel comfortable with, especially…read moreif it is going to involve surgery. I moved here from CA and I knew plenty of Orthopedic surgeons and had considered even flying back out there. But a good friend highly recommended Dr. John Paul Rodriguez so I decided to give it a try. I had never had a knee problem but after my first visit, and imaging, it was determined I had a meniscal tear. The pain was pretty bad but I was able to walk with some assistance. When I met with Dr. Rodriguez again, he gave me a choice of surgery or waiting it out. Initially, wanting this to go away sooner, I opted for surgery. But as we were getting into scheduling the surgery, I had decided to wait it out and see if it would get better. After a full year, my knee pain had significantly improved, but I could still feel what I could only guess was the tear. It was worse with certain activities and it was starting to limit what I normally was able to do. So, after a year of conservative treatment, I decided to revisit Dr. Rodriguez. Something I really appreciated is they didn't make me start all over from square one. We essentially picked up where I had left things. I felt I did as much as I could to give the knee a chance to heal if it was going to but realized this was basically as good as it was going to get non-surgically. Dr. Rodriguez really listened to me and ultimately we agreed to go ahead with the surgery. A special thanks goes out to Madison Gaul, Dr. Rodriguez's surgery scheduler. She was exceptionally helpful in getting me scheduled on a date and time that worked for me. She was very clear about everything I needed in order to get clearance for the surgery and very accommodating with the scheduling. The day of the surgery could not have been more uneventful. I had surgery at their surgery center and everyone involved was very nice and did everything they could to make sure I was comfortable. I blinked my eyes and the next thing I knew I was in recovery. They had already called the person who was going to give me a ride and as soon as I was a bit more alert, I was able to leave. Post-operatively I really didn't know what to expect with respect to pain. I will call it "Tylenol" or "Ibuprofen" pain because that was all I needed that first night. My leg was wrapped in a compression dressing that I needed to leave on for 10 days until my next visit. And during the ten days, I was able to bear weight and didn't even need the crutches I had and never needed anything stronger than ibuprofen. At my first post-op appointment, all was well. They removed the sutures and addressed all of my questions which were primarily about when I could resume bike riding. It has been just a little over six months and I cannot say enough good things about this practice and Dr. Rodriguez. My knee feels so great, I often forget I had surgery this year. I don't regret taking the year to see if it would get better, but I am so happy I had the surgery. I am back to riding my bike 10 - 20 miles a day and have even done some long 30 mile rides. I have not needed to even take an ibuprofen in more than four months and my knee feels as great as the uninjured knee.

The staff is Friendly and efficient. This is my first visit and I recommend them . Awesome Staff…read moreand Doctors are Awesome. Very through and they explain what is going to happen.

I had a close friend see Dr. Parker for 18 years and Dr. Parker was always amazing to him, I mean really super impressively amazing to him. So impressively amazing to my friend that I recommended Dr. Parker to friends looking for a rheumatologist despite never seeing him until recently. Fastforward a few years since this close friend moved and me getting blood work back indicating an autoimmune issue might be present. Very naturally I asked for a referral to Dr. Parker. I literally looked forward to interacting with Dr. Parker after hearing about him for so many years. The appointment was more like an integration as to why I had an appointment at all. Dr. Parker also said that he sees Dr. Volpe and that Dr. Volpe is great. I promise you Dr. Volpe is one of the worst doctors that I have ever encountered, period and this is after living on 4 continents in 5 countries and being to an additional 33 countries. Not sure if it is because I am a women, if it was because I am overweight, or if he was having a bad day, or if he had COVID and it has impacted his functioning, or all four, but I can no longer recommend Dr. Parker. I hope that the appointment was an aberration; and, if not, that this review reminds Dr. Parker of the doctor he once was and how he has truly helped people in the past.

My father has several doctors, and Dr. Osgood has been one of the best we've visited. In the early years, he would often escort us from the waiting room, as his techs were busy with other tasks. He would "check us in" and was always professional. He is willing to listen and takes the time to care for his patients. He never appears to be in a hurry to get you out of his office. He also runs on time, which is unheard of in many doctors' offices. We are usually in and out in under an hour. I greatly appreciate his bedside manner and professionalism. His new location is right down the street from where we live. He appears to share the practice with several other doctors. The front desk staff is hit or miss at this location, and the turnover seems high. His current tech in 2025 is so lovely and sweet. He has been there for at least two years. If you need a Rheumatologist, I highly recommend Dr. Kevin Osgood.

He's been my doctor for six years, I've had many, but he is the best!

He does not discount alternative healing and was knowledgeable about alternative healing practices. There is no question that Dr. Kravitz cares. When he enters the room, I feel I am already on the path to healing. He answers all my questions and is clear and frank with his answers. I trust Dr. Kravitz completely. I highly recommend seeing Dr. Kravitz, if you can.

No matter how many times I had health insurance changes, I always made sure I would be able to see Dr. Kravitz. I've had other doctors in other cities, but no one came close to Dr. Kravitz's knowledge (26+ years of practice), professional demeanor, and personability. He is knowledgeable on so many topics, and I know I'm able to ask him anything. And you know what? He listens. It's that simple. He sets your chart down, he looks at you, and he listens. Some doctors are just so harried they don't take the time to really let you explain what's happening or how you feel. It really does make the difference. We forget how important it is for a doctor to relate to his patients. I've seen doctors who have been cold, indifferent, uninterested in anything except performing an examination or treating whatever was wrong at the time. Sure, that's fine, but it's the bare minimum; it doesn't set me at ease. When I'm sick, and I'm concerned, Dr. Kravitz demonstrates a level of empathy I've yet to see in another doctor. It also helps he has a sense of humor! Even if he does not accept my insurance, I would only want to have him as my primary care physician. He's known me for years, and knows my medical history better than anyone. I hope to stick with him as long as I can. If you are looking for a new doctor in the area, you will NOT be disappointed. Dr. Kravitz is the real deal, and one of the few people I still trust in the healthcare field. A real winner!
