- M. p.
Best Rheumatologist!. Dr. Lisse has been my doctor for many years now. When I've read on blogs/Facebook posts; etc about the nightmare doctors others with RA have encountered, I feel truly blessed. He has never made me feel as if the symptoms/pain of RA were all merely a figment of my imagination. Whenever I've had an emergency, even though I live an hour and a half away, he and his office have always made room for me on their schedule, whether it was to get a much needed injection or a checkup (with anti-biotics ordered) for cellulitis; which can be detrimental to someone with a compromised immune system. He has seen me at my worst and has helped me progress to being better. I couldn't say enough good things about him and the staff at the infusion clinic. Dr. Lisse, Patty, Amy, Margie are all fantastic!
