Professional as I listed another in the area and I felt her interest in my implant was not correct. Didn't hardly speak to me and while in the room. Found Dr. Enger and he provide excellent guidance and could never ask for more.

Review for Dr. Enger

Dr. Sachak was very thorough and a very good listener. I feel very confident going forward with him as my doctor. Upon our first meeting, he ordered some blood work and seem to truly care about my health! I feel I definitely have the right doctor for me.

Susan Wampler Apr 14 2024

Review for Dr. Sachak

Left numerous messages for a call back after my mom got a pacemaker. Day 5, Ramona calls back in the afternoon. I was very upset, since my mom is very important to me. She said my attitude was bad, and dr Bauer told her to tell me if we didn’t like the care we receive, he can refer us to another...

Review for Dr. Bauer

One of the most thorough and caring dr visits I've experienced. Very caring, very good communication and efficient on every front. Biggest challenge is waiting for someone to answer the phone (which is the norm everywhere these days). Highly recommend this Dr.

Dr. Tull is an excellent surgeon and has a great medical team to assist him. My hip replacement turned out great and I am very satisfied with my new hip that is pain free!!
