He has ordered some diagnostic testing for my leg. I appreciate it. The visit previously he examined a head wound and took time to talk about it and what has gone on over the past year.

Dr Plasek is so comforting. He takes time to listen to your concerns. He has been so kind to my family and has helped me through the hard times and works so hard on keeping his patients well. I would recommend him to anyone!

Great doctor who takes the time to ask questions, and he really cares about the well-being of his patients. It’s too bad the hospital administrators don’t share his passion for medicine as my afternoon weekday appointment just happened to coincide with an emergency drill. Poor planning. Do emergency drills when the facility is not open for patient care.

Dr P. walks on water as far as I’m concerned. He listens and is caring. I know this sounds dramatic, but he has saved my life twice now over the years by making the right call for my health. Dr. P. and nurse Pat are the best.
