I have seen Joel Pestrue, as a Medical Care Providing, since moving to the Oscoda Area (3 years ago). Joel is a very kind and professional PA. I am honored he was able to take me on as a patient.. I have two small prescriptions that I take, and Joel is knowledgeable as well as kind in his professional treatment. I do not know the influence behind his decision for medical direction… but it was correct… and appreciated. [NAME]

In the past three years, of seeing Joel Pestrue as my PA, and I am [AGE], so lots of years with a Medical Provider… Joel is exceptional, personable, very professional in his care, but with warmth and a caring stature. I am blessed to have this Medical Care Provider.
