Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Yearly Physical
I spent more time in waiting room than with Dr. Wetzel. No labs, no examination.I have more of a physical at my place of employment and doesn’t cost me dime.

Six months checkup
The two important people at family practice is Dr. Wetzel and his nurse Cherry. They are personal and I trust them both with my health. Dr. Wetzel is attentive and always listens to my concerns. I made the remark yesterday during my visit that I had the best nurse and doctor.
