Clear information presented verbally and Paper.
Dr. Wessels was awkwardly rude and seemed like he was in a rush. Also, the patients were being seen so quick that the rooms were not throughly cleaned for the next patient.
Dr. Wessels is very knowledgeable about colorectal medical issues. He and his staff have always been very cordial during my appointments.
I was treated so well and everything was explained to me. I would highly recommend Dr Wessels and this practice. Website is also very informative.
Extremely professional. Good bedside manners. Suggested "tincture of time" remedy. I searched online to no avail; guess I'll have to wait.
Dr. Wessels explains the procedure in common terms. He is very good at what he does.
Draft. Wessels and his assistant Addie were very professional. They were understanding of some discomfort with the procedure.
arrived 15minutes early as requested and I still had to wait another 30 minutes to be seen.
Dr Wessels was very nice an has a great care for what you seem to be going through. His nurses are super nice and very helpful. Highly recommend him..
Excellent care as always
