02/11/2026

I often feel dismissed by medical providers and I can confidently say that was not the case with Dr. Aluko. I felt heard, validated and supported by Dr. Aluko. She took time to understand my concerns, asked follow-up questions, explained her thought process and the plan going forward very clearly. I felt included throughout the process and I left feeling confident that Dr. Aluko would help me gain even more clarity on what I've been experiencing.

She was phenomenal and so thorough! Will be recommending her to anyone I know that needs to see a rheumatologist. She made sure to explain everything and was constantly asking if I had any concerns or questions. She's probably one of the best doctors I've ever been too

12/23/2025

Dr. Alike was very kind and listened more than most. She was direct and to the point but in a good way. Explained things very well and showed understanding of my discomfort. You can't answer questions you don't know the answers to yet and I had a lot of those.

12/09/2025

First visit so not much to decide and no treatments but explained why she thinks my issues don't match what my pcp and I have thought and sending for labs

12/05/2025

Listened very well & asked good additional questions

11/18/2025

Very informative!

Dr Aluko has impeccable bedside manner. She is very thorough and shows so much concern for her patients. She certainly deserves the great reviews!

11/02/2025

Dr. A is has a calm and competent manner. I am considering moving my RA care to a more central location where many of my care team are located. She was compassionate and while she expressed concern for me leaving and she was sure to let me know this transaction may take time and she is still available to me. She made sure to order new tests to get a new base line and explained to me to continue with my current meds. I really like and respect her and it is hard to make the move for me. I simply live an hour and half away and at 71, I need a shorter commute. It look like I will be staying with her for six more months and I am happy to have her to keep treating me.
