Dr Wolfla was a great source of information. Thank you.
Very concerned about my condition and recommend what I needed
Dr Wolfla was fantastic.
Dr. Wolfka is a great Dr. Explained things that other Dr.'s hadn't Explained. Only negative thing is the furniture in waiting room definitely needs to be replaced. Old, ripped & dirty. I'm sure Froedtert should be able to replace it.
Im 101% flabbergasted and star struck at the ease of communicating with a health care professional in this manner. He was Amazing.!!!! On a scale of 1 to 10, I give him an 11 I am so great full to have this individual treating me. Semper Fi
Thanks for getting me in promptly and particularly Dt. Wolfla who spent the extra time necessary to fully explain an alternative to the surgical procedure that had been previously recommended for my spinal stenosis. I will consider these options over the next few days and then decide how to proceed.
So happy to have found everyone
