Dr. Bernadette Arnecke, MD

I believe it's been over 10 years since I discovered Dr. Arnecke. Hands down, the best doctor I've ever seen. She listens, cares, you don't feel rushed and offers solutions. I now have my husband seeing her and he feels the same. She's simply the best!!!

No other physician I have seen in the last 6 years has done as much to help me figure out pain/malabsorption issues, she was able to patch together my ailments and help move forward.

I would recommend Dr Arnecke any day! She is a very intelligent woman. I am extremely grateful to her for discovering my cancer from only my blood test results. She spends a lot of time with her patients answering all questions thoroughly. This may cause her to fall a bit behind in the schedule, but she is well worth the wait! Dr Arnecke is very professional and will do research for you, if necessary. She is kind and caring, a great person and Doctor! You won't be disappointed!

I was very unhappy with my medical care and treatment provided by this doctor. Dr. Arneke is chilly and uncaring. She looks at you as if she's looking right through you and not listening to a word you say, almost a judgy look. Her bedside manner is lacking, she's very abrupt, and almost acts put out when you ask a question. I get the impression that she dislikes her job and wants to be anywhere else but there. She's always in a hurry and running behind because the office is very disorganized. They also break many privacy laws, which is totally unacceptable in a medical office. When I first saw her, I thought we had a fairly good doctor patient relationship; however, the past few visits have been HORRIBLE. The entire time I was there I was with her medical assistant, who also needs training and an attitude adjustment. They are very unprofessional and sloppy. The entire experience has been miserable and I would not recommend this doctor or this office to anyone.

I saw her nurse practitioner for a physical and addressed my health concerns about my excessive bruising and hair loss. All three nurses where unable to get blood out of my arm and hand. Whole thing wasted 5 hours of my day because I had to go to the lab for them to draw blood. The nurse at the blood lab had no problem getting blood out of me and said her nurses didn't know what they where doing. When my test results came back they said they where normal and did not have interest in helping me.

I have been a patient with Dr. Arnecke for several years and cannot imagine a better physician. She has guided me through a Stage IV cancer diagnosis and has been available and active in my care and coordination with my medical oncologist, radiation oncologist and neurosurgeon. I am not sure what the review stating Dr. Arnecke was no longer in practice is about because I just called today, Sept 29, 2017 and scheduled my annual physical for next month.

* UPDATE * called to make a follow up appointment and message simply said office now closed Dr. Arnecke decided to pursue another opportunity. Never a letter or email to patients -- just closed up and left like a circus show. Who does that?

I recently moved to Scottsdale and signed up with Cigna. They suggested Dr. Arnecke as my Primary Care Physician. At our first meeting, I was very impressed with how thorough she was. She scheduled a referral to a dermatologist because I had a small basal cell carcinoma removed in the past. At that apppt. the dermatollogist decided to biopsy a mole on my back. It was very early stage malignant melanoma that was easily removed. Dr. Arnecke's throughness prevented a very serious illnes for me
