Appreciate the time to ask our questions and get feedback on how to confidently proceed with the return to play plan. Team we trust and appreciate their honest and thorough feedback.
We continue to be floored by the level of professionalism and care/concern at this clinic. I couldn't recommend It enough (and do!)
Many thanks!
Thank you
Compared to other medical providers I'd been to recently involving my arm injury, your clinic was heads and shoulders above the others. One other place I had 45 minute waits on 2 different visits. Not to mention getting a correct diagnosis at your clinic. Very satisfied.
Dr. Raasch is the best surgeon in the state of Wisconsin.
Excellent care speedy & efficient
This continues to be the best experience. The people are amazing. We come from 3+ hours away and it's completely worth it!
The appointment got moved around a few times hence the 3 rating but is understandable due to Dr Raasch's needs at this time.
We think Dr Raasch is the best out there - we are so thankful for him. The staff is also very pleasant and helpful; the office reflects Dr Raasch's professionalism and character.
Dr Raasch is the best!
Great experience overall.
Dr. Rausch was excellent with explaining the problem and what treatment course would be expected. Gave detailed information on why other treatments didn't work for me and plan going forward. Explained the true reason for PRP as option prior to surgery despite my past experience with PRP not effective last time for a different problem. Trusted his knowledge, explanations and experience.
