Dr Bartel just performed my second bone fusion foot surgery yesterday. I've now had both feet done and he did a great job. He's really friendly and thorough with explanations and coming up with a plan. I'm very impressed with their surgery center in their South building in Geneva. Everyone is so nice and experienced there, and it's just like being in a hospital. They were very efficient and quick. I was in and out of there in a couple hours.

He is an exemplary physician and healer. My other doctors recommend him but I, myself, find that Dr. Bartel puts me at ease and shares his knowledge.

Professional, thorough, great bedside manner. Performed my trimalleolar ankle fracture repair yesterday - in a ton of pain today, but confident repair was done right. Time and a lit if pt will tell.
