  • I was given some of the worst diagnosis in the kindness way. My next visit will include my family as well. I was well cared for.

  • He was very vocal about how I should reach out to him or other staff should I have any negative impact from the new prescription. That was most appreciated by me. (So far, the new prescription is making me have less of the chronic pain I have without any negative side effects. Hooray!)

  • This provider has been very helpful diagnosing and finding treatment for me.

    2025-10-15

  • Everything was fine and there'll be a follow up, probably in the next two or three months with a test. And then I'll probably see Dr. Chwalisz maybe in a year. So everything was fine.

    2025-10-15

  • It was specifically directed to my ongoing condition that is regularly examined, but present issues were also discussed and will be evaluated.

    2025-10-08

  • Unclear going forward as to correcting my issues. Dr made several reading suggestions. I get the impression that multiple doctors are assisting me but that there is no clear answer as to my constant fatigue.
