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.

An excellent doctor!
Excellent doctor! She is extremely thorough and will get a resolution for your medical issues. I wish I had seen her earlier.

I’d like to express my filling about my great rheumatologist Dr. Diana Sandler. I am under her care for past few years. Prior to my first visit with Dr. Sandler I had difficulty in walking. I had problems with my joints and I was advised by other doctors to replace my hip. Thanks to Dr Sandler I did not replace my hip and now I walk very long and hard trails (9-12 miles). Thank you, Dr. Sandler!

Need to get her facts straight. Telling patients that exercise won't help you lose weight. VERY condescending towards patients who are the model weight.

One of the worst experiences I’ve ever had with a physician.. do not see this doctor. Not only is her bedside manner terrible, she acted preoccupied and completely uninterested during my visit. I left with no answers and she mumbled something about seeing another doctor. A complete waste of my time and would not recommend her!!! Stay away

Dr. Sandler is the most amazing doctor, I have been and still am on a long journey to figuring out what's wrong with me, she gave me a diagnosis which explains most of my symptoms. When everyone thought I was crazy, she cared. When every doctor sent me spinning in circles, she figured it out in one appointment by ordering every blood test known to mankind lol. I think I wouldn't have gone crazy if I never met Dr. Sandler, she is the most caring doctor I ever met!

Dr. Sandler is a rarity in the medical profession! I have a rare autoimmune disease and recently relocated to the area. She took the me to review letters, labs and all the other documents explaining theories, tests and other processes & procedures I've undergone over the years. Not only that, she took the time to listen, answer questions and offer an explanation of her treatment and tests! If you're looking for a thorough, compassionate, knowledgeable, brilliant doctor, Dr. Sandler is the one.

Had my first visit with Dr. Sandler for rheumatoid arthritis. Dr. Sandler was so compassionate, she explained in great length my care plan and addressed all my questions and concerns. She took her time and I didn't feel like I was being rushed. Would definitely recommend Dr. Sandler to anyone looking for a GREAT rheumatologist!

Dr. Sandler is one of the few doctors who actually listens! She's honest when speaking rather than make empty promises. She explained several times that I'll always have pain & that she would like me to meet a pain specialist who can make my quality of life much better. My only complaint is that her office is an hour away. Please add additional offices (closer to Plainfield) to shorten our drive-time. Her new assistant, Mary Jane is a great addition to the office. Thank you!

Dr Sandler saw my dad, a very spry 83 yr old, about 6 months ago as he was having pain in his wrists.His family physician had blood tests and X-rays completed & recommended he see a Rheumatologist even though it was thought it was age &having had a shoulder replaced within the year. My dad saw Dr Sandler who diagnosed him immediately with Polymyalgia Rheumatica & Gout,and put him on a treatment plan that resolved his pain very quickly. The compassion and the skill she exhibits is outstanding.
