Great doctor. Very happy with Dr Wessels. He took his time to thoroughly explain everything. Would recommend to others.
The doc and nurse are a 10 out of 10. Not personally crazy about all the Christian accents (scripture, cross, etc) but I understand they can provide needed comfort for some. The person who scheduled me was kind and I appreciated being emailed a Google calendar invite; my only suggestion is that calendar invite NEEDS TO HAVE THE ADDRESS IN IT since Google and Apple Maps sent me to the old location. I was grateful that they managed to see me despite the timing mishap.
Very professional and communicated what he was doing
He's the best ever! Explained everything to me and he didn't hurt me at all when he examined me !
Clearly explained everything. Provided in office service to alleviate my challenges and it was painless and quick. 100% recommending him to my husband and family!
Wonderful doctor and office staff. Lots of concern and compassion for such a sensitive visit.
Thanks for your help!
When I left I told many ppl about his bedside manner & how he took his time explaining things, providing medical advice, and looked me in my eyes (meaning I wasn’t just a number on this calendar).
Much more attentive to han the Dr in VA. It was worth the 2hr drive.
Dr. Vessels was great! Efficient, no information overload.
