Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Compassionate
Dr Dada really cares about me as a patient she takes the time to listen to my concerns and makes me feel heard thank you Dr Dada!!!

She cares
She has treated me for over 10 years since I was 50 and has listened, tested and adjusted helping to minimize my symptoms. She has never been late or missed an appointment in over 100 visits. She supports interns and hires good staff as her practice has grown. Friendly, professional and highly recommended.

Late to every appointment
She has been good, but her time management really needs work. I have been in her care for more than 2 years and she has been late for every single appointment. It is super frustrating. Lately she has not been listening to me and was pushing a medicine that has not been working for me. She also asked me which medicine I want and I was like I am not the doctor here.

Not helpful
The Doctor made me wait 1 hr and when she arrived she was rude and sold me on the drug that I had watched for the hour in her examining room as my only choice of treatment. I have since gone to get a second opinion and found very different advice.

Gout Treatment, Krystexxa Infusions
Undergoing treatment for gout. Infusions need supportive medicines to enhance/protect the positive impacts. Dr Dada has worked well on optimizing this with me. Infusion staff are very attentive and skilled at their work. Highly recommend this practice!

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.

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 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.

Pam in Bellevue – Dec 10, 2017
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Dada?
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.
