Dr Sioco was great. Really took the time to listen and consider all issues before making recommendations. He also gave me options and explained them. include the front desk staff, nurse, lab Excellent service!!!

I absolutely love this practice! I have been coming here since I moved to Maryland in 2019 and every time has been a pleasant experience. Some highlights to speak on:1) Parking is ample, both street parking and the lot that is tucked behind the building. 2) Wait time is minimal (~10 min if that?) when you enter to check in for your appointment. By the time you're finished filling out all the necessary forms, a nurse comes out and calls you to take vitals.3) Everyone is kind is professional. My PCP at this practice is Dr. Kwabena Owusu and he is THE BEST. I actually had my annual physical with him today. Very personable, easy going, and friendly. One time I had a mild scare (too embarrassing to go into detail lols) and called the office to see if he could fit me in. Despite him having a full schedule, he was willing to quickly fit me in for a quick 10-15 consultation for my issue. He is wonderful and would recommend him if anyone is looking for a PCP.I'm actually surprised that there are such low ratings for this practice, but I don't require much. As long as people are professional, generally nice, and don't speak down/at me, I'm a happy camper.

I've seen Dr Michael Redding for 6 years or so. He is exactly what I want in a primary care physician: he listens, he asks pertinent questions, he's a good diagnostician, and he's great about referring out when that's what's necessary. He's also quite funny - though that's probably not very relevant:). His medical assistant, Rita, is worth her weight in gold. So why not 5 stars? Since Inova bought his practice, the red tape to schedule an appointment or get a message to Dr Redding is ridiculous. I do whatever I can to avoid having to interact with the "customer service" people (which is who you get when you call). Anything. I message through MyChart. I make telehealth appointments using the online system. I ask my pharmacist to request prescription refills. Whatever it takes -- because they really are that bad. Perhaps they could send those folks to John's Hopkins for training...
