Way too much paperwork.

Urgent Care is an almost definite choice these days. Not like the good old days when you could have your primary care doctor, see you. Now, they make appointments way ahead of time, and then change whenever it's convenient for the doctor. Point in case, I was to have an annual exam on Jan. 26. Now Ican't get in until March 23. Customer care with a personal doctor has long gone out the window.

Why is the front door locked? There’s only one entrance in or out of the building. It’s very inconvenient and there are no exits marked other than the one that I came in, but if there was a fire or if there’s an emergency the building, sometimes it’s kind of scary cause it doesn’t show you how to get out if you need to

Thank you!

This was a very positive experience considering the circumstances. Dr. Wagener was kind and compassionate and took his time to listen and explain. The front staff and nurses and X-ray tech were all pleasant and patient. Thank you all.

Doctor Wegener continues to be the best! His demeanor gives me assurance that I’m OK, and gives me confidence in my ability to think things through regarding my healthcare.

Both Dara and Dr. Wegener were warm, compassionate professionals, which I deeply appreciated after the pain I had experienced in the previous couple days. They both were active listeners, and answered all my questions. I am very thankful that my friends insisted that they take me to Urgent Care post haste.

I had a productive and pleasant visit to see Dr. Wegener at M Health Fairview Uptown clinic. Getting into the building was a bit confusing, as it took me a minute before I found the signs directing me to the right entrance. The receptionist was very pleasant and courteous, and helped me get checked in quickly and effortlessly. The phlebotomist at the laboratory was excellent at her job and followed procedures to a T. The nurse who took my vitals made sure I understood what was happening at each step. I appreciated his cheerful but soothing demeanor. Dr. Wegener as always is a thoughtful and experienced and a great resource for understanding my condition. He laid out a number of options and I felt fully in control of my healthcare choices. I felt both better educated and reassured about starting the next phase of my treatment. Thank you to everyone at Fairview Uptown.

I very much appreciate all the Fairview Uptown staff who read my request on MyChart and made sure I could meet with a doctor the same day. It was above and beyond on everyone’s part

outstanding !

Good visit

Jul 20, 2025
The problem, as always, is getting an appointment. I can never see Dr. Wegener when I'm sick. I can only see him for these maintenance type things. When I'm sick, it just takes too long to get an appointment to see him. And when I need to move the appointment, it gets moved for months, even though that may not be appropriate. So that's the problem. You still need to deal with it. Thanks.

trying to get an appointment was difficult, being 81 years old, not able to use thee the online system, / (computer knowledge) not easy to use. Also not very good at answering this experience!

Jun 10, 2025
Dr. Wegener is exceptional. Too bad you can;t clone him. The young man in the lab is fantastic- no pain on blood draws. Calm and kind.

Dr. Wagner is one of the best medical professionals that I've ever had, and I'm very glad that he's still in practice, and I'm very glad that he's still there because I can be extra, and he is absolutely compassionate and courteous, extraordinarily professional all the time, and it seems like he's a genuinely good human. So yeah, great job, Doc.

Dr Werner is amazing. Such a kind and caring doctor. Excellent in hearing me and understanding my needs. I'm very grateful to have him as my physician.

I feel better about what I'm experiencing now, knowing I can depend on Dr. Wegener's knowledge about my issues. What he told me about auras and migraines makes perfect sense me, and if the symptoms happen again I know what I need to do to verify whether it is auras or an eye issue.

Dr.Wegener # attending nurse did a fantastic job. Both listened closely to what I had to say & that I understood what they were telling me. I couldn't be any happier. Great job.
