I was extremely pleased with the meeting with Dr. Carnaru. I wish I had been able to meet with her when my back troubles started in August of 2022, but she wasn't with the group then. The reorganization of the group set my diagnosis and treatment back and caused me to have to consult others leaving me without a diagnosis and/or treatment for too long. I am just glad that I was finally able to see Dr. Carnaru.

Dr. Carnaru has helped me so much with my arthritis problems. She is very knowledgeable and has provided me with great advice and treatments

February 14, 2024

I hadn't had a rheumatologist since 1980's but both Dr Machado; my neurologist at Ayer and my PCP affiliated with Trinity Health wanted me to start seeing a rheumatologist. I wasn't given a or referred to any specific provider in rheumatology. When I made my appt through Bone & Joint I just took an appointment with a rheumatologist who was taking new patients. I told Dr Carnaru and other providers that I hit the jackpot with her. I was impressed with how much she paid attention to my long and complex history and she continues to show the same concern and involvement with me whenever I go back. I have given her name to other providers I have and have included how highly I regard her.

Dr Carnaru was fantastic. She was incredibly thorough and made me feel so comfortable. My medical decision to move forward with one type of treatment changed after speaking with her. My one warning is to not park in the employee garage on Seymour St as the directions tell you if lot out front is packed. It was scary and a nightmare.
