When I am in the room with Cari, I always feel that I am her only patient. She genuinely cares about you and wants to put you on the best path to a healthy life. I drive 100 miles one way just to see her and will continue to do so for as long as I can. Cari and her staff are truly amazing.

As to Cari Stenz, excellent. As to MyMichigan appointments (eg. X-ray, MRI) there is a very long wait period sometimes to get it and scheduling a new patient based on a referral to a specialist within your own system can be a wait for 2-3 months.
