OVERVIEW

Ralph Bennett, MD is a dedicated rheumatologist who has practiced in Arizona since 1983. He helped found Arizona Arthritis and Rheumatology Associates and has been instrumental in its growth.

Dr. Bennett earned his medical degree from Mt. Sinai School of Medicine in New York City in 1978. He went on to specialize in internal medicine at the Cleveland Clinic for the following three years. His interests, particularly in the field of autoimmunity, led him to specialize in rheumatology at the Cleveland Clinic, where he finished his fellowship in 1983.

Dr. Bennett has spoken extensively to the public about all aspects of arthritis, and numerous times at professional meetings. He has been active in well over a hundred clinical trials since the early 80s, with an early focus on anti-inflammatory medications and the stomach, and a more recent focus on new treatments in rheumatoid arthritis. He has helped author textbook chapters and many scientific articles. He is a fellow of both the American College of Physicians and the American College of Rheumatology. He has been active in the past on hospital committees and local medical foundations.

Dr. Bennett grew up in Connecticut prior to his medical education. He is married with three children. He is an active supporter of the local arts.

"Very condescending. I looked to him for professional help year after year and finally quit going to him. A one star is too high of a rating for him."

"He was so awful to me during my appointment, I will never go back."

"I'm only choosing one star because picking zero isn't an option. Dr. Bennett's bedside manner is dismissive, rude, and condescending. He rushes through appointments and doesn't listen to patient concerns. - His appointment policies are an atrocity, plan to wait in a back room for at least 45 minutes - I tried to obtain labs only to find out they were never called in by his MA - No response to patient portal emails - His scheduler directed me to the wrong location; when I arrived 7 minutes late because I had to rush from one office to the other, they checked with him and he refused the appt despite the other location calling ahead to tell them what happened (I was forced to reschedule more than a month out despite having no medication) - You can spend hours/weeks waiting on his team for refills, labs, etc. - Demands his time be valued while devaluing the patient's time completely - The office marked an appointment I canceled in advance due to having Covid a "no show" "

Data Transparency and Trust: Understanding WebMD Doctor Listings and Reviews

We know that finding the right doctor or provider is important to your health. That’s why we want to ensure you have confidence in the provider profiles and listings you see on WebMD Care. Our provider data is sourced from the physicians themselves as well as publicly available databases. Any doctor or provider who claims their profile by verifying themselves can update their information and provide additional data on their specialties, education, accepted insurances, conditions they treat, and procedures they perform.

All the physician and provider reviews on WebMD Care are provided by users just like you. Knowing these reviews provide insight into how other patients feel about a doctor, we maintain internal policies and protocols to ensure the quality and accuracy of all reviews. Providers are not able to remove or modify reviews on their own. Reviews can only be removed after an internal review by our customer service team.

We value your input and encourage you to reach out to our support team if you encounter any issues.
