Dr. Rocca is the BEST doctor I have ever had. He is thoughtful, kind, patient and knowledgeable. I have been to other rheumatologists before but they were not as good. Two of them misdiagnosed me as having lupus. Dr. Rocca reviewed my records, examined me thoroughly and ordered some tests. He was able to put all the pieces of the puzzle together. He started me on a treatment at the second visit. I have been with him now for six months and I am feeling MUCH better. I cannot tell you how happy I am that I found him.

One of the worst doctors I have ever seen. He is very cold and looks at his computer constantly. Examined me in less that 5 minutes, had some blood work done. When I went back he said after 15 years he did not agree with my doctors on my Lupus. He got me denied for disability after a 5 minute visit. When I tried to question him about it, he showed me the door.

I have arthritis. I have been working with other doctors but none of them have helped me as much as he has. I suppose if you have a real problem, he can help you.

I have seen Dr. Rocca twice now for systemic lupus erythematosus, and I am very impressed with his manners and knowledge. I transferred over from a previous doctor that I had seen for over 8 years (moved out of the area), so Dr. Rocca had a lot of catching up to do. He asked questions, he listened, and did not interrupt. I did not feel rushed AT ALL. He made it seem like I was the only patient he had! He was adamant about knowing and understanding my entire history. He really seemed like he cared. Things that my previous doctor thought were nothing, Dr. Rocca took seriously. The office staff is always courteous to me, although they sometimes talk fast.

One star is one too many for this place. I have rheumatoid arthritis and sarcoidosis so I called and made an appointment a month in advance. When I showed up 15 minutes early the rude receptionist informed me she canceled the appointment because she left messages on my cell phone stating if I don't call back it was going to be canceled. The problem is I had to shut the phone off due to waiting on a disability determination I have no income. Then I was informed that since I cannot afford a phone I could not be a patient there at all.

I've been going to Rocca for the pass 12 years for my Lupus. I can say that he is the best Dr. that I've ever had. He sits and talks to me about what I should and should not be doing, I never ever feel rushed. Even when he stop taken my insurance he would not stop seeing me. When I don't feel to well and I call the office he calls me rite back. I thank him very much for that and all he does.

very thorough, listens well, answers all questions. My experience with him has been for almost a year and my treatment has been excellent. I have treated for my illness for over 20 years and he has been the best physician and so is his staff.

Love his office manner. Always goes over what was discussed at last visit. Then proceeds to current issues. Gives feeling of confidence and organization. Doesn't overbook. Is honest and forthright and admits when he's not knowledgable on a subject.
