Dr. Epting was professional and thorough with her exam. I felt a bit rushed when trying to explain my condition. I did not feel she really wanted details. I also waited in the exam room for over an hour.
Spent a generous amount of time with us, confirming our suspicion of a treatable condition, only to then tell us we needed clearance from other docs before she would consider performing a procedure. Upon spending an hour in her waiting room gathering the info necessary and requesting a follow up appt to porduce requested clearances, we were asked to wait again, only to finally be told she did not have enough experience to treat a patient so complicated. Very disingenuous and disappointing. She knew the conditions before the exam. Should have saved us and herself the time and billing.
Dr Epting is wonderful - professional, caring, thorough, and truly concerned for your well being. She provides efficient, informative and excellent care. I would highly recommend her.
Admin staff told me doctor wouldn’t see me for problem if I did not have written report from radiology and that the disk I brought was not sufficient after waiting 35 minutes in the lobby.
Very professional Gave me information to review With my pain management doctor
I had to wait over an hour to see Dr Epting once I was placed in a room. She failed to apologize or give a reason for her tardiness.
Fantastic, explained everything and actually did a physical exam. Most physicians don’t do that any more.
Very knowledgeable and understanding. Highly recommended!
So personable, excellent bedside manners! Understanding, explains things, procedures, options wonderfully
I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for the heartfelt gratitude for the outstanding care provided by Dr.Epting and her nurse Ms.Lakner but what stood out the most was how Ms Lakner listen to all my concerns being in so much pain and passed it along to the doctor thank you need more nurses like Ms. Lakner
