As always Dr Hager and staff were excellent! I couldn’t ask for a more responsive team to meet my medical needs.I am a registered professional nurse manager with 50 years of experience and service to my community. I am very critical of the physicians that I entrust my care. Dr. Hager is one of the best. She is relatable, concerned, explains treatment in detail and never rushes her care. You are fortunate to have her on your team.

Dr. Hager and her nurse are always friendly and make the visit quick and easy. DR. Hager gave me diagnosis when no other doctors were able too in over 3 years! She helped ease the pain and rash I was having in a short time by prescribing the correct medicine. She is a wonderful Doctor to say the least. I would strongly recommend her to anyone who has a autoimmune disease I am blessed to have found her!

Melissa Hager came and started my appointment because they were short staffed that day. Very impressed that she would help things get started so she wouldn't be late for other patients. It also helped her nurse not to feel overwhelmed trying to get it all done on her own .
