Excellent doctor will return in a year
I was very pleased with how well I was listened to and my questions answered. Also with all the information they shared with me to help me understand my diagnosis and make me feel less anxious.
Good
Dr. Doerfer was very good with his explanation regarding what will happen on the day of my radiation treatment
My appointment was on time no delays
Wasn't satisfied with this doctor he didn't want to listen to me and every thing I said he went against it..
I respect having to change my appointment due to another patient needing surgery and appreciate Dr Doerfer still making accommodations to fulfill my needs. Especially during the holiday season. Many thanks to him and his staff.
I was totally impressed by the entire process and left feeling completely confident that I had made the right choice by choosing MCOW &Froedtert
Listen to my concerns, didn't rush the visit and talked to me about my options.
I've suffered for so long, Dr Doerfer has been a godsend. I haven't felt this good in years. I am so grateful to finally find a doctor that has the knowledge to find the right treatment for me.
This was my first experience at MCW/Froedtert and it was top notch the entire way.
I am very happy with the care I receive from my doctor and the entire team at Froedert. I feel they are sincerely concerned about me and my health.
