Quick and efficient, the Doctor listens and then makes decisions on your care. I would recommend this office to anybody that needs arthritis care.
I am a patient of Dr. Al-Khoudari for three years. He is dedicated to providing highly effective, individualized treatment for my psoriatic arthritis.
The Staff as well as the Dr. at Arizona Arthtitis Clinic really care about their patients and their well being.They are professional and I greatly recommend any person with Arthtitis , whom wants a doctor that cares to give Arizona Arthtitis a call.
Dr. Al-Khoudari and his staff are extremely caring and professional.
On time, took the time to ask questions and then waited for answers. Didn’t keep her face in a computer, took the time to listen, share, and explain. Very pleased with intake
I have been a patient for many years. He was the first to finally diagnose my issues and solve my pain. He listens and he cares. Highly recommend.
I saw Dr. Gonzalez today for a follow-up visit and was very satisfied. She was knowledgeable, polite and supportive.
My questions via the patient portal were responded to promptly. The office called me and an appointment was made for the same day.
This practice is fantastic. Dr. Alkhoudari and Rita talked the time to not only answer questions, they are extremely thorough. I highly recommend this practice!
Great visit today…staff was happy, smiling, and helpful! Doctor was great as usual. Their treatments are helping me feel human!
I love my doctor! He listens and provides the best care. I’ve been in remission for PSA for 2 years.
New in town…..scheduled an appointment very quickly. The Dr. & staff were super. Looking forward to the relationship.
Just moved from out of state and had to find a new rheumatoid Dr. I saw that Dr. Al-Khoudari had a lot of great reviews and I had my first visit with the Dr. today, the staff was very friendly and efficient, the Dr. very thorough and friendly. I think I found the right Dr.!
Terrible , terrible front desk girls and it’s true , they won’t tey to figure out and bill your insurance because it’s simply much easier to charge you cash or credit card. It’s called ‘ laziness ‘. The dr. Was ok but not as caring as I’d …
Dr Gonzales is a wonderful provider, she is tuned into details and careful to anticipate problems that may arise.
Listened to me. Explained what he was doing and what treatments he planned. I am very impressed with his knowledge and his compassion for my pain and discomfort. I know I am being treated by a true professional
Arizona Arthritis Clinic and all of the staff are amazing!! I felt like they really listened to my concerns and really wanted to help. After struggling for too long to get a diagnosis elsewhere, I finally have hope that I can get better.
Everyone has been very nice in the office and very helpful and responsive, as this all new to me and it is trial and error right now, as we get to the bottom of what my needs will be moving forward. I am thankful they have been kind and helpful, with all my worries and questions.
Doctor & his staff are kind, efficient & knowledgeable.
Dr did not listen, attempted to put me on medication that I cannot take because of the steroids I take, which we had a very long discussion about. Doctor was more interested in trying to re-diagnose me then treating the disease we already know I have.
I love Dr. Al-Khoudari and his staff. They’ve provided me with personalized, highly expert care, and I am grateful for their help.
i have heard very good reviews of DR Al-Khoudari. We did not have symptoms that required his diagnosis, but he was very thorough in reviewing our case.
Very good experience. The doctor was very direct and honest with me. He took the time to address what he was certain was my issue and answered all my questions. Very positive visit.
Dr. Al-Khoudari is awesome…bringing me back to myself in that I’m able to be more active and get through the day at my normal pace once again. Simply the best!!!
First visit… So far all good. Staff was kind and Dr Al-Khoudari was kind and thorough. Anxious to see results.
Friendly and helpful staff. I feel like they really care about my well-being.
Dr. Al-Khoudari and his assistant Dr. Gonzalez asked me about my symptoms and really seemed to care and tried to understand what was going on with me. They saw me right on time too, instead of waiting around for an hour like some places.
Dr. Amer Al-Khoudari has worked wonders on two nagging issues I had – one with a joint issue in my left big toe and in my left knee. As a result of his diagnoses and therapeutic solution on these two unrelated maladies, I am as good as new.
I truly appreciate the fact that Dr. Al-Khoudari was so honest and straightforward about my diagnosis and the prognosis. Thank you all for your patience and great work ethic.
Thank you for providing the televisits, for older ones like me, your helping so much
Dr Gonzalez is great ! In fact maybe to good ! It’s very hard to get an appointment … however she is worth the wait
This Doctor is horrible. He doesn’t listen and waits to react to damage before preactively treating a previously diagnosed disease. I suffered for 4 months until this Doctor finally prescribed a treatment. Due to the extreme swelling, …
Dr. Al-Khoudari takes time with you as a patient and a person. If he doesn’t have an answer to your problem he sends you to someone who specializes in that field. It gives me confidence I am in good hands. Sheila Tharl
I was very satisfied with Dr. Al-Kouri. He explained things to me in terms I can understand.
Dr Al-Khoudari was very informative.
The front desk lady and the nurse are awesome. Made me feel very comfortable.
Lorrie
I am always thankful at how efficient he is. He addresses issues and concerns, listens carefully, and provides a working solution.
The doctor was very nice. I was with him for about 15 mins. He answered all of my questions. This time, I’m happy to say, both front office girls were very nice.
After moving to Arizona from Washington State last year, I needed to find a new rheumatologist. I definitely found the right one! Dr Al Khoudari is the best, very thorough, takes his time with a patient, and gives very helpful feedback! I …
I don’t normally leave negative reviews, but I’m REALLY HOPING that AZ Arthritis Clinic responds to this negative feedback, so I can finally pay my bill and be done. I have a bill I’d like to pay with them, but the bill is incorrect, so I …
Waste of time. Dr is in a hurry and not helpful. Front desk girl needs a personality and look at people not the computer when talking to people. She gave me the wrong directions to the office. The whole experience was bad.
Dr. Al-Khoudari diagnosed me with RA but has failed to treat me. He gave me my first injection in office without testing me for TB first, which is required. Then they submitted to my insurance wrong and now I’m not able to continue my …
there was a mix up over appointments but office staff squeezed me in. Visit was prompt and professional.Bloodwork ordered and completed that day.
I recieve very good care and advice about my health. Ask questions and got the answers that I wanted and some I didn’t want. Dr Al Khoudri and Rita G are very professional and straightforward.
When I first came to see Dr. Al-Khoudari over a year ago I thought he was going to be a great doctor who really cared about his patients. But after several mishaps with his front office and him I realized he didn’t care as much as he said …
I’m very impressed with the care I’ve received. Everyone very friendly and professional. And my treatment for my rheumatoid arthritis had improved my life more than I ever would have expected. Very happy.
My name is Kim. I’m a 54 year old female and had a lot of pain in my left knee. I couldn’t walk without pain and had pretty much given up on exercise of any kind. I went to see Dr. Al-Khoudari who recommended a stem cell injection. It …
The Dr. is Awesome. The office staff go above and beyond to make you feel welcome. The wait time is great, very little wait time. The Dr. is very thorough, fast and knowledgeable.
Dr Al Khoudari approach is comprehensive and detailed, he listens and analyzes your symptoms seriously, for years I was lead to have ankylosis spondylitis and Dr Al Khoudari not being convinced by the unconventional inconclusive tests used …
I am so happy to have found Dr. Al-Khoudari. I have had rheumatoid arthritis for over 20 years and he is the best doctor I have ever had for the condition. He truly cares about you. I highly recommend him.
This was my first visit and I felt very comfortable right away. The staff were very friendly and knowledgable. Dr. Al-Khadari took time to hear my concerns and order an appropriate approach. I was very satisfied with my visit.
This doctor was a huge disappointment. After reading all the great reviews I encouraged my mom to go to this doctor. She has been previously diagnosed with Lupus and R.A. When she went in for her initial appointment with this doctor she …
My Husband is extremely pleased with his visit and fact Dr. Al-Khoudari has a long term plan of attack for treatment. Dr. Al-Khoudari is thorough, patient and extremely informative…can’t say enough about how awesome Dr. Al-Khoudari is!!!
Had a great discussion with the Dr Al-Khoudari, the whole experience was very good, him and staff were great treated us like family! Just a good positive experience! Thanks
Dr Al kadari and his staff are wonderful. They show genuine concern ,and caring. They don’t rush through the appointment. They take the time to truly listen , they answer questions and do everything possible to address my ssues at every appointment.

They take the time to explain everything with you and very understanding of your problems.
Dr. Al-Khoudari is kind and thorough, he expressed sympathy for my new diagnosis. He answered my questions and helped me understand what it all means going forward.
I came to Dr. Al-Khoudari due to seeing his great reviews, especially in comparison to other Rheumatologists. Unfortunately, he seemed upset that I was seeing him for a second opinion on positive blood test results I’d received from another …

The NP took time to speak to me about my symptoms and provide some ideas about further testing and investigating. The staff were all kind and professional. I look forward to going back with my test results.
He is a fantastic doctor!!! He he listens to his patients. He is open to new ideas and he is extremely knowledgeable in his field. He is very caring and compassionate with his patients. I was so angry when my insurance made me change doctors due a change in my insurance carrier. Damn Arena…
Dr. Al-Khoudari and his new Nurse Practitioner, Rita, are both excellent medical providers. They listen well, question as needed, and manage my RA with the utmost knowledge and skill.
Office staff we’re very helpful and were able to get me an appointment quickly. I thought Dr Al-Khoudari was very thorough and put together a great plan going forward

Dr. Al-Khoudari is very thorough and knowledgeable!I felt confident in his assessment.
This was my first visit and I was impressed with the staff and doctor. It was a positive experience and felt the doctor was looking out for my best interest in running some test and blood work first before just treating symptoms. Thank you!
Al-Khoudari took the time to listen to me and diagnose my symptoms versus just injecting me with cortisone to get rid of my pain. My muscles and bones ached and hurt so bad I couldn’t stand it.I was diagnosed with polymyalgia rheumatica. Dr …
I feel like it’s too soon for me to post a rating since I’ve only had one appointment. The appointment itself felt rushed but the Dr. was very kind & knowledgeable. I’m hoping he can help me get back into remission.
I have been a patient for over a year now. I am so happy with Dr. A. He listens to me and takes action. I’ve been through 3 others and this is the first time, I don’t feel like just a “number “!

The office has a very friendly team, always answer my questions and are easy to work with. Dr. Al-Khoudari is great. Really listens. I never feel rushed.

I started seeing Dr. Khoudari and the nurse practitioner Rita Gonzales a few months ago and I’m very happy with them. I feel like this rheumatologist may be the first one that will actually help me feel better and have my osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia more under control.
Dr Al-Koudari is great! I had previously seen another Dr for arthritis in my wrist joint and they had given me a steroid injection. That injection hurt so bad that I couldn’t use my hand for 3 days after so when the pain came back I was …
Excellent doctor. Asked good questions, listened to me and carefully reviewed my records. He was very informative. I had been misdiagnosed, so I only have good things to say about Dr Al-Khoudari.

I saw Rita Gonzales and she answered all my questions. I thought Rita so smart and she explained everything to me. She was very understanding, I look forward to going back.

Have been coming to see Dr Khoudari for many years. He knows his stuff and is very personable. A+
Dr. Al-Khoudari is kind and knowledgeable. He listens patiently. I did extensive research before settling in him and I am very pleased. He is worth the 45 minute drive from my home to his office.
Dr. Al-Khoudari was very pleasant. He explained everything he was doing. I am happy to have found a rhuemotoligist that I am happy with since moving to Arizona. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a doctor. His office staff was very nice as well.
I had an appointment with doctor yesterday. Recently I was having a different kind of pain. When I talk to him, doctor knew right away what my problem is. So I’m starting the sample of medicine to see. I am very satisfied with my visit . And equally important fact is the staff working there is very friendly and nice .
Dr Al-Khoudari listened to me and worked with me toward a solution. He listens very well and explains a lot. His office was efficient, welcoming and I felt in good hands. He is easy to get an appointment with.I recommend.
Dr. Al-Khoudari took time with my history and data. My questions were answered in an unambiguous straightforward manner and a next-step plan made. As a first time patient, and here for a second opinion, I was more than satisfied.
this place will have you come in for a “working interview” promise to pay you for your time, and then completely ghost you. no paycheck and a waste of time. completely unprofessional.
Have seen the Dr several times now, and I’m very impressed with the professionalism there so far. I think I’m in much better hands for treatment of my condition. Have seen two other doctors for my RA and now I’m feeling much better for a change. Highly recommended Dr AL-Khoudari!
Dr. Al-khoudari and Rita truly care about their patients. I’ve had RA for 25+ years, failed multiple medications, and seen many rheumatologists. Dr. Al-Khoudari and Rita have been some of the best and give me hope in managing my RA.
Doctor was quick with questions and I knew this was to establish some kind of baseline. The fact that I have been ignored by others we just overlooked. Starting fresh. I liked that. We will see how fast diagnosis comes in next 2 weeks.
Since I started my treatment with Dr. Al-khoudari my health and life have changed for the best, I’m very grateful for everything. The best thing is that I can communicate with the Dr at any moment if I have any questions. The girls in the office are the best and very helpful. I couldn’t ask for more!
Staff is super helpful, kind and caring. Dr. Al-Khoudari actually listened, answered my long list of questions, and came up with a care plan that I felt confident and comfortable with. I am grateful to be under his care.

I saw Dr. Al-Khoudari for about a year and a half 2018 to 2019. I went to the mayo clinic for a second opinion and after almost $3000 out of pocket, that rhuematologist made contradictory notes on both my xrays and labs leading to no …
Very impressive, especially Dr. Al-Khoudari’s knowledge and the on-site ability to perform services such as blood-draws and other diagnostic tests. It was also a nice facility and location.
This was my first appointment with Dr Al-Khoudari. I am a long time arthritis patient from another state. I found, he was a very pleasant and attentive Dr and was easy to communicate with.

First appt was great. Second appt to go over results was horrible. I think he spent five minutes with me and didn’t even look at my results before I came in. I had to ask about my ultra sound results and I never did get results of the x ray …
I had a good time here. I have been looking for a Doctor to go to ever since I moved to the area and I feel like they were very attentive to my past medical care and made it easy to agree with a continued plan of care. I definitelyrecommend!
Had an appointment here in July of 2020. I verified with their office that they took my insurance, which they said they did. I even verified with my insurance company (via their EIN) that they were an in network provider, and my insurance …

The doctor was great. The office staff absolutely horrible. The girl at the front desk doesn’t even look up from her computer to speak to you. They do not take down accurate messages for the doctor & if you need an infusion you better stay …
Diagnosed with PMR about a year and a half ago. Was placed on a Prednisone tapering off schedule for this time period and now seems to be cured as my last dose of Prednisone is tomorrow. Dr. Al-Khoudari is very professional and compassionate. Back to having quality of life. Thank you Dr. Al-Khoudari.
My primary care doctor referred me to a different rheumatologist that had lots of really negative reviews online. Instead of going there, I decided to look for one on my own. I found Dr Al-Khoudari’s office and found that he had so many …

I came to AAC for information and advice. Rita was great…pleasant, listened completely to my somewhat long story that brought me there….gave me some recommendations, and will follow up after an mri. Other than the mask requirement, I was very happy with my visit
At 94 I did not feel comfortable going into a doctors office during this pandemic. I have never been in front of a laptop computer before. Once my niece got me set up, even with a hearing problem, I was able to have a helpful discussion about my health with the nurse practitioner. It was an exceptional experience.
Wonderful appointment! Very short wait time. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable and Dr. Al-Khoudari is phenomenal. He asked questions and really listened to my responses. He talked to me on my level and I left feeling very encouraged.

Update 7/5/2022
First visit with Dr. Gonzalez who has joined the practice. Very satisfied with the visit. …
I just wish all my Dr’s were as calm cool collected as Dr AL K. is , effective efficient professional knowledgeable. He solved a 29 year issue I have and now it’s under control . Wish I had seen him in 1990 when it first started .
This was my first time coming to this clinic. Front desk was very professional. Easy to work with. Rita was so patient and listened to my health issues, never felt like she was rushed. She looked at my medical records before coming into the room and just over all feel really happy with my decision to go to this clinic.
This ended up being typical… throughout several visits, missed work, etc… between the constant push to be on permanent medication and referrals to other doctors for more unnecessary testing of which I was charged, nothing has been resolved. …
Everyone is very courteous and professional. Doctors listen to what you have to say. Doctors are very knowledgeable and understanding. Pleasure to visit each time.

Like many people I am surprised by how high of a rating you have. This is what brought me to you guys in the beginning. I have had a pretty bad experience more recently. The staff who answer the phones have an attitude. The visit summary I …
To be honest I am very surprised at such good reviews. I saw Dr. Rita back in February because my primary care Dr thought I had Lupus. She spent less than 15 minutes with me and came to the conclusion that I had a pinched nerve that was …

Both doctors at this office are amazing.I felt like I was finally heard and their care plan makes me feel confident that they truly care for their patients. I recommend both of them to anyone looking for rheumatologists that understand their patients. The office staff they are amazing and welcoming. Honestly so glad I found them.

The nurses are horrible. Save your time, and money. Go elsewhere!
The PM is a “huge female mutt” …
Really happy about the time spent to properly communicate. The doctor was fantastic, really knew his stuff, and communicated patiently through all my questions and ideas.
Friendly personnel, efficiently run office, and the doctor took the time to explain everything associated with my diagnosis and made me feel comfortable with the treatment plan.
Last visit 11-18-22 but the same review. I love this practice. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful…. The Doc (Rita Gonzales) is the best. Very thoughtful in her approach to keeping me healthy and in remission. Currently they’re keeping a close eye on my blood work. Thank you!
This is the best doctor’s office you will ever go to. The facility is always clean, staff are polite and eager to help. Dr. Al-Khoudari listens with genuine care. He knows what he is doing and he is the best!!
Dr Al-Khoudari is a five-star rheumy! He brought me from the depths of despair 2 years ago by recognizing that I had fibromyalgia instead of rheumatoid arthritis, as previously diagnosed by a very well-respected local doctor. As easy change in meds granted me a new lease on life. The best!
Very please with the doctor. He ask questions and examine my husband and ran blood work. He started him on medicine and my husband is already feeling some better. He had been in so much pain.
The doctor is very thorough and pleasant, his nurse is also pleasant to deal with. The only problem that I have had with this office is with their billing department and sometimes the scheduling is a little too far out.
So far so good. I’m really excited about going to this practice everywhere I call. Everyone seems so annoyed and rude. I called this office and talked to Christy. She was amazing and helpful and worked with me. Thank you so much Christy for your love and compassion for humans and trying to help ❤️
Check in was quick & receptionist was very pleasant. Called in right away, my vitals were taken & the doctor was in in a few minutes. We covered all my concerns. Visit was great….I would give it a 10.
Dr. Al is AWESOME!! He is what is consider old school care. He takes the time to listen and hear you not just be there with his head in your chart. It a warm feeling not to a number or a symptom.☺
Absolutely shocked at the high ratings. This is the most negligent office and doctor. Front office staff are complete b*tches that have no regard for patient care. They never answer calls and when someone finally answers they have the most …
