Arthritis & Rheumatism Institute

Not a good experience at all! I was referred to this doctor, and he did nothing for me but trying to make feel I was wrong and none of my issues had valid reasons. He misses clue information on my lab results and sent me home with a rx to sleep. Do not waste your time at this doctor. Primary md sent me to another specialist who confirmed my DX.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Jianu for about a year. He is a fantastic doctor and really listens to what I need. He does not push drugs on me that I don’t need, nor does he require me to come in for monthly «follow ups» just to bill my insurance. I go in quarterly to discuss any changes in my condition, or needs I may have. He’ll do some bloodwork and if I want, he’ll give me a steroid shot.
While I don’t see Dr. Jianu often, he remembers me — not just my chart. He asks about my family and job and we chat about what is going on in my life. I appreciate that he’s there if I need something outside of my quarterly appointments. He and his office respond quickly to requests.
I was originally referred to another rheumatologist & they weren’t able to see me for three months — and only after I’d had a series of MRIs. I spent two weeks playing phone tag with their office staff before I’d finally had enough. Dr. Jianu saw me within two weeks and only asked that I do some bloodwork — in office.

Went with a friend. He is the definition of a quack. Just wants to bill insurance companies, write prescriptions & tell about his & his wife’s medical recoveries — from weight loss pills & wearing splints.

Dr. Jianu is the BEST Rhumatologist in Las Vegas, and i’ve been to all of them. He is very good, listens well and has excellent bedside manner. His staff is competent and friendly, and try and be accomodating with scheduling appointments.
They fit me the very same day for an emergency cortisone injections to my shoulder and hip, and the results were amazing!
Best part about Dr. Jianu? They do all lab blood-​draws on-​site! This is so convenient and helpful, it makes sitting in the office for 3 hours every 6 weeks for my infusion actually enjoyable.

If you are in need for a Rheumatologist in the Las Vegas area, Dr. Jianu is your best bet. Dr. Jianu and his staff are friendly and knowledgeable. The office is clean and parking is easy. It may take a few weeks to get in to see him for the first time but because of the limited amount of doctors who specialize in Rheumatology a few weeks really isn’t that long. The one thing I LOVE is that they can do all lab draws in the office. I would recommend Dr. Jianu to anyone.

This was my first visit to Dr. Jaimu Tudor, MD, with the Arthritis and Rheumatism Institute. My appointment was for 10:30am with a 10:00am show up time for new patient paperwork. I arrived a few minutes early. Most of the patients in and out of the office seemed much older than I am, maybe in their 70s (I’m 55). The staff handed me the paperwork right at 10:00am. While I filled out paperwork, I listened to the receptionists take several phone calls, all from patients who wanted to either cancel appointments at the last minute or make an appointment for the same or next day. The receptionist did her best to accommodate each one. I was called to the back at 10:25am. I was weighed and vitals were taken, and the nurse said the doctor would be with me in a few minutes, but seconds later he walked through the door. I had given the girl taking vitals a two-​page list of medications and outline of my medical history. Most doctors are immediately set off by my long list of reactions to most medicines. Dr. Tudor came in and went over every little detail on my sheets and every little arthritis pain complaint I had. He spent a full 20 minutes with me, which I found unusual because most doctors set aside only 10 – 15 minutes per patient. He prescribed medications under my written guidelines for back pain and inflammation. He was so pleasant and sweet. I’m always nervous with first time appointments, but he put so at ease. I had blood drawn and the technician was smooth with the needle and pleasant to chat with. It was nice to get blood drawn on the premises instead of sitting at Quest for hours. I am very happy with Dr. Tudor and his staff. He does not overbook. He takes time with his patients, listens and addresses their complaints and pains, and made me feel very comfortable and happy about the visit.

Great doc. Listens, answers questions, asks questions, and is efficient. I have never had to wait more than 5 minutes from walking in the door till I’m talking to him. But the strange thing is that I don’t ever feel rushed by him — he will take as much time with you as you need him to.
Plus, and this is the best part, I have spent 6 years being misdiagnosed by doctors with no improvement in my condition. On my first meeting with him, he had it figured out and I haven’t felt this good for years. He also cleared up a couple of other issues I was having that weren’t related to why I was even there.
His staff is great: efficient and friendly. This doctor has given me back my life.
