Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Prompt, personal, professional and caring
Dr. Wenzel was great-- I was early and she took me early. She knew exactly what was going on with Mr. Foot and was able to do the minor surgery on the spot. She also gave me choices. She also is supported by a cheerful and fast-moving staff, which is half of professional services success! Her front desk is super nice. I feel listened-to and I'm on recovery road!

Outstanding doctor
She listens carefully to what patient has to say and offers effective treatment options. She is personable and not in a rush to move onto the next patient. I had great results with bouts of pseudo gout.

She is very knowledgeable and open to alternative forms of treatment for my condition, and doesn't just jump immediately to surgery, even though I am sure that will have to happen in the future.
