Awesome experience
I could not have had a better first visit with Doctor Sumida. She viewed my images in preparation for my visit, looked at my medical history and gave me a full physical exam. She listened to my concerns and asked probing questions before discussing next steps with me. The office staff is always friendly, professional and polite. My appointment began on time and I left with a plan for moving forward. I am 100% satisfied with the result of my visit.

Feeling Grateful
I feel fortunate to have been able to get an initial appointment at Ortho Virginia with Dr. Nita Sumida. When calling for an appointment the person I spoke to was very helpful and polite. The pre-appointment medical history form and patient portal questions were appropriate and thorough, so that with the history, labs and images faxed over by my primary physician, Dr. Sumida had already diagnosed my medical problem before I arrived! Her interview questions confirmed her diagnosis. She appeared to be very knowledgeable and provided verbal education and helpful patient fact sheets about my new diagnosis and medication. A clear follow up plan was communicated. Both the appointment check in and check out process was very fast and efficient. Extremely satisfied!

I wish all physicians listened so well!
I was referred to Dr. Sumida by the orthopedist who did surgery on my hands. Not exactly happy to have to see another doc, much less a rheumatologist (made me feel OLD). But Dr. Sumida very quickly dispelled any concerns just by being present. She asks questions and listens to the response before a follow up question. She is highly regarded by her peers, and by this patient.

Dr. Sumida spends time with you, explaining what's happening and going over medications, procedures and test results. She was VERY patient with me when I was learning to give myself injections for my RA. I never felt rushed, and she didn't try to push me. That first time takes some working into, and she let me take all the time I needed.
