Doctor does a nice job and asks a lot of questions and did a complete exam, I would Recommend her .

I went into the office to have my second Prolia shot today. I honestly believe this is one of the most outstanding medical offices I go to. No matter how busy they are, they always greet you with a smile, the medical assistant is friendly, efficient and kind. Julie gave me my shot and she was great! Asking the right questions, looking out for your comfort level to receive the shot, and looking to the future for upcoming shots and x-rays. This is all the same when I come in for my labs! If I have to have a shot, I will chose this office!!

I have now been a patient of Dr. Dada's for a few years. She saved my life!! I was extremely nervous, afraid, crying in her office my first few times. Dr. Dada took time to sit with me, explain everything we were doing, talk through tests and medications. I had pain in absolutely every joint and could barely walk it hurt so bad and hit me so fast. I have been on 3 different medicines since starting but that was to get my pain and inflammation under control and help me to get into remission. The first 2 I was ok with but the 3rd on scared the hell out of me because of possible side affects. Dr. Dada explained everything she could including how my insurance was probably going to handle it. She said we could talk with the insurance company first to verify. Because of my insurance I would have to at least try this medicine before I would be approved for intravenous. I was still uncomfortable so she put me in contact with a health care advocate that could answer my questions in detail. I did that and was still scared. Three months later, I decided to try the medicine. It has been a game changer! Not only does it work, I was able to come off the other two medicines, ihave not had to have intravenous, my insurance and co-pay assistance program pay for almost all of it and NO side affects!! Dr. Dada is also helping me with recommendations on trying to lose weight. She's only done this when I've asked her first. I feel comfortable talking to her about my struggles because there is no shaming! She's my cheerleader! I'm grateful for Dr. Dada and the connection I have with her. Her office staff was always a little off and sometimes frustrating to work with but now that she's moved locations I've had nothing but pleasant experiences with them. Her nursing staff has always been great to work with and return messages in an appropriate manner of time. I like that her new location has the lab on-site again!

The doctor is rude and incompetent, she made a huge mistake looking at the results of the blood and dexa scan tests, she’s dismissive, the whole of the appointment is taken by her typing up whatever information she need to put in for insurance on computer, never making eye contact with the patient. She’s pushing medication she’s paid to, without looking at side effects or insurance coverage etc. The doctor is rude and incompetent, she made a huge mistake looking at the results of the blood and dexa scan tests, she’s dismissive, the whole of the appointment is taken by her typing up whatever information she need to put in for … More

Dr. Dada saved my life…I was experiencing serval different adverse conditions over a 6-month period before being referred to Dr. Dada. She found my extremely rare syndrome diagnoses in about 3 weeks; it has taken other people with this rare autoimmune disorder 2 to 3 years before getting answers. Somehow Dr. Dada was able to understand my vague understanding of what was happening to me and ordered the right test for this one in a million rare syndrome. I’m stable now and continue to rely heavily on her as the anchor of my doctor team. What makes Dr. Dada so special is the ability to listen to what is said and unsaid, decipher it and work towards resolving the puzzle. With Dr. Dada you get a brilliant doctor that tirelessly advocates for your wellbeing.

I've been seeing Dr. Dada since 2015 and having nothing but great things to say about my experience with her. She helped me diagnose my RA and find a treatment plan that worked for me that I've been using since. She also has an upbeat attitude and remembers a lot of detail, that makes her a pleasure to work with!

Dr. Dada is incredible! Not only has she taken great care of my health, but she has always been there for me when I need her. Amazing assistant and entire staff, they are no different and will go the length to make sure all is well. Never had to wait more than a few minutes when I arrive on time for an appointment. Fantastic doctor!

I had been to 2 rheu docs prev who did not do much to help me. Dr Dada listens to your concerns and while in Doc Dada care I am now able to live my life with less pain and more energy. Highly reccommend

I am very happy with Dr. Dada and her treatment plans. She has always discussed appropriate multiple care options during my appointments for many years. She is respectful, compassionate, and spends the time needed in each of my visits. She is a good listener too and always takes notes. I just had my appointment with her last week, and I was glad to see happy faces of her new staff & the brand-new building. Overall, I like her individualized care she has provided for me. I would highly recommend her. I am very happy with Dr. Dada and her treatment plans. She has always discussed appropriate multiple care options during my appointments for many years.

She gets paid thousands of dollars by Pfizer reps to push Xeljanz XR regardless of your underlying condition, and doesn't particularly care about finding what you really need. Look up your doctors on Open Payments Data before taking anything.

Staff is extraordinarily terrible at explaining why I couldn't get an appointment, almost as if they were embarrassed with themselves for saying such ridiculous things. This establishment is a testament to the needlessly convoluted medical system that suffering people have to navigate. Cold and apathetic, exactly what you don't want to feel from a place that is meant to help.

If I could give zero stars I would. Not only is this doctor terrible, the staff here are awful as well. I would wait sometimes 45 minutes to see the doctor because they were clearly so unorganized. As for DR Dada herself, I would have to agree with the other negative review. I often felt I was being pushed medications regardless of my symptom or what was actually best for me. Whenever I had concerns about side effects I never felt like anyone was listening. I can’t believe I went here as long as I did. If anyone who currently goes here is reading this, trust me there are way better doctors out there. If I could give zero stars I would.

Dr. Dada is an angel to me, I am extremely happy with my results. First time, when I went to see her, I was crying, I could not lift a cup or glass, I had to use both of my hands to lift 1 glass, and my laptop using my arms and elbow. She hugged me, and immediately took care of me. This year, my life is brightened due to her, she is angel to me, and my health is great.

Many patients and the wait was long. Not only that she didn't spend much time with me, never touched my hands that were bothering me so much. For both appointments I had to reschedule as her receptionist called later to tell me she was busy that day. I canceled the last appointment and will find someone else. If she's so busy she can't spend quality time with a patient then I don't want her as my doctor.

This doctor is wonderful. She spends 30-40 minutes with me at appointments and is thorough, caring and smart. Dr. Dada is also quite funny, which for me is the cherry on top of excellent care. Seeing her is a delight, even when you’re not feeling well

My family calls Dr. Dada my "guardian angel." She is the most compassionate provider I have ever worked with and a brilliant diagnostician. At our first appointment, which probably lasted 40 minutes, Dr. Dada took notes on everything that I was saying, created a timeline of my symptoms, and promised me she would get to the bottom of my pain, which she did!

She is the best. She listens and she cares. dr dada has gone above and beyond for me

I've been going back and forth about whether or not to write this review. I dont want anyone to go through what I went through. I was refered to Dr Arinola by my PC. I called the office about 6 times and left many messages across a few weeks, before finally getting to make an appointment. There was nothing open for weeks. I lost my job in this time, because I had no answers to give to my boss. I was told that paperwork would be mailed to me to be filled out. It wasnt. I contacted the office asking about this, and the office manager seemed very confused and told me to come in earlier to fill it out. As the reason I was seeing the doctor included extreme pain in my hands, this wasnt an ideal demand. I came in half an hour before my appointment and hadnt completed my paperwork before my apt began. My appointment was very short. Ive been trying to figure out an objective way to discribe what made me uncomfortable about my appointment. Here it goes: I was having so many unusual, scary, confusing, painful symptoms, and I felt like she wasnt even listening. Her demenor seemed cold. She asked me rapid fire questions that I had to really think about, the pace stressed me. She then pressed the "tender spots" on my body (which is an archaic way of diagnosing), diagonosed me with fibromayalgia, gave me a perscription and was done with me. Didnt give me any information about fibromaylgia was, give me any warning about all of frequent other symptoms to come, how to manage, notice flares, legit resources to learn more, ask if I had any questions. Nothing. As I collected my coat and hat, she tersly commanded the nurses in a room across the hall to put the next patient in. I felt like I had taken up her time or that I was just another patient on a conveyor belt. As I was before I hit my deductable, I was stunned when I added up how much I paid Doctor Arinola for such a short amount of time and such little care. There is so much more I want to write here, but I still suffer from untreated fibro with little relief, so I'm exhausted just writing this. Edit: I have tried to contact her office about transfering my records so that I can see a proper, respectful specialist and her office never returns my calls and messages. The freaking worst. I've been going back and forth about whether or not to write this review. I dont want anyone to go through what I went through. … More

I don’t leave reviews, but I have to report that I have been dealing with severe neck pain and had seen many doctors till my primary care suggested I see Dr. Dada, a rheumatologist. All I can say is I have had the best night’s sleep in the last one month since Dr. Dada treated me. I can’t thank her enough.

Didn't listen, wrote incorrect information in my charts from not listening and never corrected them when asked. I could keep going but i won't. Lets leave it at don't see her! The front desk is very unpleasant too. When your facing life threatening disease you think the Dr and staff would be kind to the patients there. Her assistant was very nice however.

Dr. Dada is absolutely wonderful!! She is so compassionate and really cares about her patients. She is extremely thorough and takes the time to listen to your concerns. I have been lucky enough to see Dr. Dada for quite a few years. She has gone above and beyond in treating my arthritis as well as fibromyalgia, She even called me on a weekend when I was not doing well to check on my well being. I have also referred many of my friends to her. She has made a huge difference in my quality of life.

Dr Dada came highly recommended by a friend. After being in pain for so long, I finally found someone to treat me for my gout. I am now pain free and it is such a relief.

Dr Dada was rushed, unsympathetic, and uninterested. Her front office staff seems very unhappy and bordering on rude. I’ve moved on to someone who took the time to diagnose me.

Dr. Dada just wanted to write me a prescription. I went in with pain in my foot and she immediately diagnosed me with a nerve issue after not even touching or seeing my foot. She quickly wrote a prescription for an awful drug and the kicker is she wrote misspelling my name. She also misspelled it on the bloodwork she ordered. Luckily I caught it before leaving the office but she didn't even care enough to make sure she spelled her patients name correctly as it was written in my file that was in front of her. She seemed annoyed to be there and like I was ruining her day by being the first appointment on a Friday. I apologize for wasting my time and disturbing her Friday morning with actual work.

This office is horrible. They know they are the only arthritis office in town and can be disrespectful and rude. They make it a huge hassle to make an appointment and when you are there for an appointment it will take at least an hour to see Dr. Dada. She will spend about 2 minutes with you and recommend a prescription. Then it is impossible to get your refills because they want you to come back every 2 months. Avoid this place if possible.

I went to see Dr. Dada in June this year for a swelling in my thumb joint. I was referred to her by another doctor at Proliance Orthopaedics. When I saw her on the appointment day, she told me they don't have any of my previous reports (MRI done at proliance, blood reports done at Overlake Lab) and she needs to see them to advise me accordingly. I left that day and made sure my reports are sent to her promptly. I then tried calling her MA again and again to hear back from her once Dr. Dada has gone through my Medical reports. I went to visit her twice but was turned away by the front desk telling me that she would get back to me. I was charged $250 for 2 minutes of her time where she just asked for my reports. It has been 3 months since then and I have still not heard back from her. This looks like a complete scam and I would rather advise other patients to go somewhere else.

I have seen Dr. Dada now for over 7 years and she has really helped me on various health issues esp. for my Psoriatic Arthritis. She has been a lifesaver for me!

Dr Dada has been seeing my mom for her severe knee issues for sometime and has helped her tremendously! My moms pain was severe before seeing Dr Dada and with her help and approach is doing significantly better. I highly recommend Dr Dada!

Dr. Dada simply saved my life, by reacting to my symptoms I was explaining to her about my left leg pain when walking, She sent me to a circulation specialist, where I got a diagnosis of blood clots in my artery and then had a surgical procedure to relieve and correct my symptoms. She truly cares about her patients and is very attentive to our needs.

Dr. Dada has been my doctor for almost two years. Beyond diagnosing and treating my complicated illness, she goes above and beyond. She is patient and kind; it is obvious that she cares for her patients. Wait time is minimal. Getting appointments is a breeze. Her staff is friendly and responsive. I highly recommend Dr. Dada and her office.

Dr. Dada is very thorough and has helped me greatly with my arthritis. She has my full confidence and I highly recommend her.

Dr. Dada is an excellent physician. She is very personable & caring. She really listens to what I say. Her course of treatments are carefully weighed & considered, as is the advice she gives. She is very generous with the time she gives her patients. I have complete confidence in her abilities. I would not hesitate to recommend her wholeheartedly. Her staff is also top notch. They are quick to help in any way. The entire office is well organized. There is never a long wait.

Dr. Dada is friendly and seems to be a knowledgeable doctor. Other than that, every visit with her seems rushed, like she has too many appointments scheduled for the day. A few times, I've seen her arrive at the building after my scheduled appointment time. Good luck if you want to contact her office for anything. Dr. Dada's medical assistant line always goes to voicemail and you're lucky to get a call back the next day. The reception staff are often not very welcoming or friendly.

Dr. Dada has done so much for me. I can unequivocally state that she has been God sent for my arthritis. She made my diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis and was patient enough to work with me through the process. Initially I had not wanted to take medication. Following her advice was the best decision I ever made. I am back to hiking and riding my bike. I highly recommend her as she is an excellent and caring doctor.

Dr DaDa is wonderful. I saw her for the first time when I was experiencing excrutiating pain, she thoroughly examined me, recognized the problem and started treatment. I have both Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis in my wrist and other joints. She has given me back my life. I cannot thank her enough.

Fantastic listener, fantastic at treating and working with patient for best result. This doctor really cares about patients and practices medicine for the right reason. Very knowledgeable and caring.

Dr. Dada and her staff are outstanding in every way!

Despite 15 years of evidence of inflammatory disease she was desperate to pretend I had scoliosis. Unfortunately for her I have childhood x-rays and documentation throughly proving otherwise. Utterly incompetent with technology. Utterly incompetent in treating any disease outside RA/OA. If you don't want to treat complex patients, say so. Don't be passive aggressive.

Excellent care. Dr. Dada listens carefully and fully discusses optioms. She take a personal interest in her patients well being and comfort.

Dr. Dada has been treating me for my condition for almost 2 years now. She has always been very calm, patient, she listens well to understand fully my concerns and tries her very best to provide all possible treatments.
