About

 

“To me, being a doctor is a privilege. I transitioned to concierge medicine because I felt there was a need to spend more time with patients. I now have the time an availability that I feel patients deserve from me as their doctor.”

More About Dr. Armellini

Discover How Patients Feel.

“Dr. Armellini was just amazing! She really took the time to listen to everything I had to say about my Thyroid and more! She was very empathetic and ready to advocate to what I possibly need going forward. I feel 💯 better since even my first visit months ago. She also suggested a great plan for my hormones going forward. I feel like I can talk to her about anything without any judgment. I do look forward to continue working with her and the practice as I already feel so much more heard and understood than with previous physician’s and practices.”
