Dr. Jaishree Manohar

She is immensely careful and detailed-oriented, not only about my Sjogren's but all my medical issues. She always gives me enough time, never makes me feel rushed, and is very thorough. Plus she makes me feel very cared about. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Now, four years since my rave review, I can say only that if I could give her 50 stars, I definitely would. I have only increased my respect, admiration and gratitude.

I personally really like Dr. Manohar. When I received a dx for Lupus SLE completely out of the blue, I could not believe it. She not only welcomed, but encouraged me to seek out a 2nd opinion--and I did. I paid the $200 for a r/t ticket to Johns Hopkins, where the premier Lupus research doctor practiced, saw her and came back with my results, which were all negative except my complements are still high. She was very interested in everything I had to say. She always is. I do not ever feel rushed with her. She takes the time to answer my questions - and I mean - I have a LOT of questions always, from insurance to alternative treatments to getting the COVID vaccine. When I said I'm just going to stop taking this plaquenil, she said ok we can try that and I did (so far so good). I find her to be very well-informed and open-minded, as well as honest and caring. I am confused by the negative reviews. I would recommend her highly.

I love Dr Manohar and Bradenton/Sarasota Arthritis Center! I went to many specialists, when I lived in NJ, trying to find the cause of my chronic inflammation and fatigue. A routine blood test for Sjögren's syndrome initially came back negative, but Dr Manohar believed I have all the symptoms and there was a more definitive test. Finally, after over 10 years of many doctors and no answers I found out I had an autoimmune disorder and started receiving much needed treatment. She has been meticulous tracking how I was reacting to my medication. When one medication was not working as well, she switched me to something which better suited my needs. And everyone in both office locations have been very helpful.
