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.

Everyone I saw from the person at the reception center to the person who checked me in and of course of Dr. Wagner were very professional, very cordial and very helpful. And overall, you know, it was a good experience for me. I had some questions and we had to make some changes and that all went just as it should. So I, as I said, overall it was a good visit.

I had to wait 50 minutes for my appointment, for my doctor to get to the appointment. So obviously I was not terribly happy. Thank you.

Dr. Joe Wagner is the best doctor that I've ever had. He listens. He takes my advice. He gets me into my appointments ASAP. Just a very overall well provider. I wouldn't trade him for nothing in the world. Thanks Dr. Wagner. Thanks. Bye.

After the nurse left and I'm in the waiting room, I waited there for 35 minutes before the doctor showed up. I think if you're going to make somebody wait that long, you should at least let them know after 5 or 10 minutes that it's going to be a while. Otherwise, you just sit there not knowing what's going on. Thank you.

The prompt and supportive response by staff when I reported a positive Covid test was just great. Everyone I talked to listened carefully, treated me with courtesy, and moved me efficiently through the protocols. Dr. Wegener was not simply attentive, informative, and straightforward, he was also sympathetic.

Dr. Wegener - is amazing! He is very knowledgeable and knew what was wrong with me without a lot of tests. He knew I was in serous pain and didn't dismiss it as being OLD. Thank you Dr. Wegener.

I had a good experience at M Health Fairview Uptown for my annual checkup. The facilities were clean and well organized. The receptionist was pleasant and made sure I understood what to do and where to go. The nurse who took my vitals was professional, considerate, and personable. Dr. Wegener, as always, is a fount of knowledge. His many years of experience and his genuine interest in general medicine is evident when you speak with him. He was patient me as I rambled on about my health concerns. He then explained his observations and potential treatments in a way that was easy to understand. I definitely felt like I had a lot of say in my healthcare decisions, and that I had a clear path forward for dealing with some of the new concerns. Grateful as always.

The staff and everybody there is great and I love Dr. Wegener. I've been with him for a long time. My only one drawback thing is that sometimes the appointments take quite a while to get through and get finished. I end up waiting in the room for what seems to be longer than it should be, even though I do understand they're busy. But other than that, everything there is great. I'm happy to have them. Thank you.

Yes, Dr. Wagner was absolutely fantastic. He has been since I started seeing him, I think in 2012. He is the best doctor, the most informative doctor, and the most caring doctor that I've ever met.

Dr Joel Wegener is the best doctor I have ever been to. He is compassionate, great listener, knowledgeable and personable. He embodies all the traits a family doctor should have towards his interaction with his patients. He is exceptional.

I felt very comfortable talking with the doctor about my health issue. He asked questions that I did not even think to ask him, which made me feel exceptionally comfortable talking with him. He set up an appointment for our next visit so that it would be near the date that I seen him the first time due to my health issue, and I do thank him.

Dr Wegener always makes me feel seen. When the 42nd Ave clinic closed I made sure to follow Dr Wegener to the Uptown clinic even though the Ford Parkway clinic was closer to me.

Dr. Wegener was amazing!! He is one of the most competent, thoughtful, and caring providers I have ever experienced. For the first time ever I had a Fairview provider spend more time looking at me directly instead of staring at the computer. He was very clear and concise in his communication with me. I felt seen and heard and was given excellent advice and compassionate care. Dr. Wegener is a true gem and you should do everything you can to keep him as a provider at Fairview. And you should find more providers just like him!

My doctor did a great job treating me and everyone was kind and caring and wanted to help! But the health system as a whole is woefully inadequate and just barely up to the task.
