I had a very good experience because she actually cares about my health and had me do an MRI of my lower back because I had some discomfort. I'm glad that I went to UCLA. All the staff, nurses and specialists are very friendly and they actually listen to their patients.

Dr. Penumarty is the best rheumatologist i have ever been seen by. She takes her time to hear you out, makes the best decision for treatment and is an all around nice person. You really have a great doctor with Dr. Penumarty. I have had Psoriatic Arthritis most of my life and have seen many different doctors over time and this doctor is a keeper.
