She reminded me to get my pneumonia vaccine and also ordered my A1c to be checked. I know the Dr. Is busy but she took extra time to make sure we covered everything. Again, very thorough and committed to professionalism.

She is amazing, very personable and easy to open up to. I switched healthcare systems recently after being with my previous for 5 years. I was nervous about the switch but she has made it so easy. She is awesome, i am thankful i picked her as my new doctor

My previous Provider (Dr. Piontek) took time and demonstrated a genuine concern for me as a person. I left realizing Dr. Wheat does not want me as her patient and I will try to remedy this.

I am so thankful I found her. I worked for my primary care physician for 20 years. Moved to Jefferson City and for the past seven years, have struggled with finding a good fit for myself. And that is until I found Dr. Wheat!

The front office is way understaffed. Attempts to call in usually results in long periods of being on hold, or no answer at all. This is not the fault of Dr. Wheat. She responds quickly to messages sent vis Patient Portal.
