This is mainly about Dr. Eckerle and he is an outstanding pulmonary doctor. He explained everything to us. He answered our questions. He went over different things again when we weren't sure we understood. He was compassionate, very kind and I'm glad he's my doctor.

Dr Ekerly is an excellent doctor. He actually does an exam. Doesn't just copy what the last doctor says. I have alot of docters that sit and do the charting on the PC and dont even come close to me. He also listens and is non judgmental. He is a great motivational speaker. I have several doctors.

Yes: Dr. Eckerle is the best. Takes time to go over all issues, not a clock watcher !! Explains things in details, and disseminated so one understands. Dr. also explained that if I was having any issues to call the office right away. He is one of the best Dr’s I have ever had.. He really cares about his patients .. I wish more Dr’s had his finesse..
What could have been done to improve your experience?
Nothing more could have been better.. I walked out of his office knowing he was there for me.. Not just as a number or someone rushed out before the next patient.. I’m so happy he accepted me into his practice..

All of them are so nice but, Dr Eckerle is special to me. I have had a health issue for 3 yrs & have been sent from one dr to another to the point I almost gave up any hope. Dr Eckerle brought me out of my despair! He is the sweetest, kindest, caring Dr I have. I am so glad my PCP found him. He is also a wonderful listener & I’ve never felt rushed by him. I will refer him to anyone I run into that has a pulmonary problem. Thank you Dr Eckerle! God chose you for this profession for many good reasons!
