The staff are all friendly, I didn’t have a long wait at all. I had a great appointment and got exactly what I needed.
As usual, my care and advice was impeccable. Don Laird has cared for me for years now, I know I could not be in better hands.
I was very satisfied with my medical conference with Dr. Walling. He explained to me that my condition is associated with my age. We discussed a few options and I chose the scope procedure. Dr. Walling feels I made the appropriate option.
John Thelen took time to review my records and was very thorough.
Staff were very friendly and helpful. My physician provider, Scott Zeilstra, was very pleasant and professional and took the time needed to listen to me.
Jonathan Thelen is knowledgeable, explains things well, including lab results and tests. He takes the needed time for the patient. He is respectful and professional.
Staff was very friendly and competent. Introduced themselves & made me feel very comfortable. Explained exactly what there were doing.
Was called back quickly, the medical assistant was friendly. PA Scott Zeilstra was very throughout and asked a lot of questions, which I appreciated. Order some tests and imagining ruling out my main concern. Overall great experience, staff was very nice! 🙂
Very happy with the care received at DHI. Jonathon Thelen P. A. is very professional and has a wealth of knowledge to answer any questions I may have.
