I've been going to Dr. Mehta for several years and have been extremely happy with the care and treatment he's provided. He's helped me get my lupus under control and I have been feeling great. I appreciate Dr. Mehta listening to what I need and making sure everything is in check.
Dr. Philpotts is very attentive, thorough caring and listens to all my mom's concerns. If it wasn’t for him we wouldn’t have found the diagnoses for my mom and get her the care she needs. The office is always clean and the staff is always friendly and welcoming. I’ve heard horror stories from people about their Rheumatologist. But, I will definitely say going to Southland Arthritis and seeing Dr. Philpotts is a breath of fresh air and we’ll continue to get treatment here for the foreseeable future. Thank you for all that you do for your patients.
Everyone here was wonderful – from the front desk, to Dr. Bravo and her assistant. They all put me at ease. Dr. Bravo explained my lab results in both technical terms and in terms a lay person would understand. Wait times were short. This doctor visit was a very pleasant experience all round.
Dr. Trivedi is the best doctor I've been to since as long as I can remember. She is so kind, informative, thorough and most importantly genuine and caring. Unfortunately, finding a doctor this amazing is so rare and I am extremely happy to have found her! I feel so comfortable and taken care of. Thank you for being awesome Dr. Trivedi. You most definitely change lives for the better.
Dr Panikkath and staff are very friendly and professional. Dr Panikkath dedicated time and answered all my questions and explained thoroughly. Had a pleasant experience. Would recommend this specialist to anyone.
Southland Arthritis is a great office. Dr Ramaswamy is great! He really listens to you and does whatever is needed to treat your symptoms. His staff is wonderful! Always so helpful and professional. I would recommend them to everyone!
Dr Colburn is amazing and very thorough. He knows his stuff and is always helpful. Definitely listens to his patients.
I absolutely recommend this clinic to everyone suffering from RA. My husband started seeing Dr Chavez in April of this year and I can honestly say I see a 75% improvement in his health. Dr Chavez is very proactive with her treatment plan, she is compassionate, professional and knowledgeable. Staff is very nice and professional as well.
The girls at the front desk are friendly and so helpful. Come to the back, and the medical assistants are also friendly. I have seen Angel Bustamante and he explains everything so well, answers any questions I may have. There is also minimal wait time! Definitely recommend!
Today I saw Lisa Asfahani. I was very impressed by her such a good listener and answered my questions and very informative. I look forward to being your patient. Thank you so much.
The Southland Arthritis medical group has been very good and professional to me. The doctors are very caring and knowledgeable. They really care and listen to your personal needs. I highly recommend this facility.

Dr Amal Mehta is a very compassionate and professional doctor. He takes the time to listen to you. He also takes the time to explain things in a way you can understand. I've never felt rushed during a visit. It's been my experience in California that good drs are hard to come by. Dr Mehta is an exception. I highly recommend him.
