What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
I am really pleased with seeing Dr. Ockenfels and his staff. My only concern is he appears to be similar in age to myself and I worry that now that I've found a good PCP retirement may be on the horizon.

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
The merger to the corporate medical care MyMichigan is honestly disheartening. In spite of the absolute evil way our medical care in Amerikkka is going these days especially, in rural areas. Dr. Ockenfels and his staff do their job with outstanding kindness, safety, and professionalism. I pray that this take over to MyMichigan won’t chase physicians like this away but nurture them to continue to do this extremely impactful work. Many people within our community, myself included, need more physicians like him and his staff. He goes above and beyond to help and far exceeds a 1-10 rating. It should be in the thousands range that is how amazing he and his staff are.
