If I had the opportunity to say anything about this practice, I couldn't say enough. As a whole, the surgical team has been phenomenal. They've been very attentive to all of my needs throughout the whole process from leading up to surgery and after. And honestly, I think the best compliment I could give is a recommendation to anybody to their practice. Like I said, I can't really say enough good things about Dr. Wishnia's team. I'm just so grateful for what they have brought into my life in terms of support and improving my health. And I really hope that this message gets back to her because she deserves to hear it. Thank you.

Dr Wishnia & her team were all respectful, knowledge, and courteous. Please don't refer to her as a provider. She's a physician or a doctor and deserves the respect with her title.

I was very impressed with all the providers that I saw on the day of my consultation. They were all very wonderful. They were very attentive and listened, really eager to hear what I had to say. They seemed to understand and ask questions, which I really appreciated. So they had a clear idea of who I am and you know, my history. I had plenty of time to ask questions and they allowed for plenty of time for them to give me the information I needed. Everyone was very kind and helpful and it was just a really all-around great experience.

Dr Wishnia took the time to review my case and explained in great detail the surgical procedure. Although the surgery was not recommended at this time, she answered all questions and offered a follow-up consultation visit if I needed any additional information or had additional symptoms. I would highly recommend her and would absolutly have her perform my procedure in the future if necessary.

I loved my care provider. The problem I had was with the lab. There was an hour and 20 minute wait to have a blood draw. And I asked if that was typical and they said yes, it is. And I went by the next day, too. I waited the hour and 20 minutes, but when I went by the next day, too, there was a full waiting room. And they said that's very typical that they have a long wait. So something to think about.

Dr Wishnia was kind and thorough. Her demeanor was just what I look for in a doctor especially a surgeon.. who are typically egotistical.
