Dr. DeMarco is one the best rheumatologist in the DMV area because of his thorough examinations & extensive testing. I've been a patient at the Wheaton location for 12 years.

He is tops, have been a patient for 16 years. After countless physicians, he had my diagnosis in a short time and sent me to an oncologist as well. It’s sad I see a bad review? What? At times he’s swamped with more patients in his practice then anyone else, I’m amazed he keeps up. No one can provide better care and answers.

Dr. DeMarco is a sophisticated, World-Class physician in multiple respects and in multiple fields, who actually cares about his patients and their improvement. When I was around 21 (I'm 26 now) he diagnosed me with a rare (roughly 1 in 5,000) metabolic, degenerative, connective tissue disease. Before Dr. D I had spent months going to highly reputed specialists and being sent on wild goose chases, endured 7+ MRIs, Multiple CT scans, and X-rays, costing thousands upon thousands of dollars, thanks to ignorant, negligent, or even potentially reckless physicians ... and to make a long story short it took him all of 5 minutes in-office to diagnose me. He gives it to you straight. Dr. DeMarco's training and service with the Navy and his *exceptional knowledge* allow him to do what other doctors can't do. He is a caliber unto himself. I am surprised and skeptical to see other reviewers say anything negative about his bedside manner. My experience was of unparalleled and highest quality.

Staff very disrespectful, rude, Demarco, the same, very poor Dr/Patient interaction skills . This Dr does not know how to truly listen, has a very limited understanding or empathy for the human condition

I've long been a patient of Dr. Paul DeMarco and Arthritis and Rheumatism Associates in the Wheaton, MD location. He is a caring, attentive, and professional physician who has worked well in the past with other medical professionals with my care. I would recommend him to friends, family, and others and have already done so.

Dr Demarco literally saved my life. For 8 years I had been misdiagnosed and he figured out what was wrong. He was also able to come up with proper treatment. (It took some time but I'm complicated so it will). I have since sent him at least a half dozen patients (I'm an acupuncturist) and he has been great with them too - proper diagnosis and testing, referrals to other great doctors when needed. He DOES get behind. He gets someone extra complicated and it just takes longer and then he can't catch up. Usually it's no more than a half hour but I have waited 1.5 hours before; but I think he is worth it - he will get behind with you as well if needed. Dr Demarco literally saved my life.

It was my first appointmement as a new patient. I can not say I was impressed. Not at all warm and engaging. Spent most of his time typing. Had not taken the time before my appointment to read my complex medical history.

Dr. DeMarco was so tuned into everything - I had a plethora of information for him and he took it all in easily and patiently answered my questions with a terrific bedside manner. He was supportive and kind and suggested we look at Xrays together which was really nice! (Other experiences with doctors have been waiting nervously in the exam room until they come back and give you a couple of words where you need to run home and ask Dr. Google LOL). Not so here - Dr. DeMarco went through the Xrays

Fantastic doctor with great bedside manor! Dr Demarco was able to diagnose and successfully treat a very rare condition that my daughter had. He provided us with lots of information and options and made us all feel much more at ease with the situation. I highly recommend him!

Thorough and thoughtful; ready to discuss in detail various treatment options; listens for questions, even if they are half-formed. I disputed my diagnosis of osteoporosis with him; he took no offense but explained the basis for the diagnosis in depth. His participation in research puts him at the leading edge of treatments.

Dr. DeMarco is naturally caring and genuine. He has taken the BEST care of me and supports me through all of my life journey. His nonjudgmental attitude allows me to feel safe to share whatever is going on. I have been with him since 2008 and that's where I plan to stay. He goes to the end of earth to make sure his patients have what they need.

I had my first appointment with Dr. DeMarco at 11:15 am they asked me to be there at 10:45 so I did. So far no problems, very nice staff and place. At 11:15 am I was in the room waiting for the doctor... and I waited and waited... At 12:15 pm I decided it was time to go, Doctor DeMarco never came. I drove an hour to be there and another hour back, I deserve respect.

Was referred to Dr. DeMarco by my PCM because of my arthritis. Got an early morning appointment so I could go on to work. Was kept waiting for 45 minutes before I saw the doc. He sent me down the hall for some x-rays, gave me a prescription for pain killers, referred me to the physical therapy office attached to the practice and told me to come back in 6 weeks. The bill was for a very startling $1000! His initial visit was billed at $506 dollars! Went to the PT for a couple of visits but she was more interested in teaching me some new exercise system she was getting training in than in helping me figure how to control my pain. I won't be going back to any of them. Was referred to Dr. DeMarco by my PCM because of my arthritis. Got an early morning appointment so I could go on to work.
