I have seen Dr. Bartoli since around 2016/2017. During this time, I was struggling mostly with my right knee, but as time passed, all these other joint/muscular issues were creeping up. At the time, I didn’t know what was going on, and rheumatology was struggling to figure it out too. But at the end of the day, I had tendinitis everywhere! Especially in my right thumb/wrist. Since then Dr. Bartoli has guided me through many situations and supported my physical rehabilitation. I just followed up with her today after not coming for several months (#life), but we picked right up from where we left off. She is very thorough with her physical examination (in a good way..not just trying to see where you say ow), and she is thoughtful about how to approach things without jumping to a surgery or anything. At the front, Kathy is great, and even outside of your appointment time, she’ll be in touch with any messages from Dr. Bartoli, updates, info on next steps, etc. This is my longest standing provider since I’ve been in the NYC area for a reason. Oh! And she is someone who is easy to be comfortable with. Absolutely great bedside manner and honestly it doesn’t feel as serious as some appointments can be, she creates a chill space to connect and help out the best way see can. If you’re having any musculoskeletal issues, she’s the person to see! 🙏🏾🙌🏾
