It is consistently a positive experience even when there is a problem that needs to be addressed.

Dr Younker is seriously the best!! I have dealt with many Dr's and I rate her as high as my Dr at Mayo. She listens, helps come up with solutions, thinks of things I never thought of!

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's an amazing doctor. So personable and seems to really care about your health. She's relatable and doesn't blame everything on weight, but gets to the root cause and doesn't shame you for it.

quick and listenes
Oct 31, 2025
When she entered the room, she greeted me, and I initially felt welcomed. Before scheduling the appointment, she mentioned that she “doesn’t do appointments over the phone,” which I said was fine—assuming it was due to HIPAA regulations. She then said, “I only have two minutes, so I can step into the hall while you finish your call,” and it was at that moment I realized she simply didn’t want me on the phone. I hung up and continued with the appointment. During the visit, she told me, “I only took this appointment because they said you needed pre-op documentation.” I tried to clarify that this wasn’t the case, but I felt unheard once again. As the appointment went on, I sensed that she held a biased opinion based on what the front office had told her, which made me feel uncomfortable.

Very concerned about our health

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.
