This is the first doctor's office I have felt completely, 100% comfortable at here in D.C. I began seeing Dr. Elizabeth Nerbun (who was also a nun!) but she unfortunately moved away. I was extremely apprehensive about trying one of the other doctors but every single one of them have amazing reviews. They reminded me a lot of my own parents, who are internal medicine doctors.
I saw Dr. Dennis Cullen and was pleasantly surprised at how much I actually enjoyed my visit! I have been overweight literally my entire life and I dread visiting the doctor as many who don't know me just automatically assume I don't exercise and am unhealthy in my food choices. Dr. Cullen made me feel so at ease and didn't even mention my weight. It was nice to come out happy knowing I'm doing the best I can and to just keep trying. Life is hard enough as it is!
Their nurses are all very kind, especially the nurse I saw today. He was so funny and made great conversation. The front desk staff are business-like.
The only reason I am taking one star off is because of the yearly $45 "clerical fee." I've noticed many D.C. doctors are adding a fee now and as someone who only sees the doctor once a year for a physical, maybe twice, it makes you not want to have insurance. If this was $25 or so, I wouldn't feel as annoyed about blowing $45 on a fixed budget.
Anyway, I highly, highly recommend these doctors! For the first time in a long time, I think I found a place I'll stay. read more
