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.

Fantastic doctor that works so well with our entire family!

Does not listen
I was assigned to Dr. Metzger after my previous provider left the clinic. I saw her twice, and switched to a different provider. She did not listen, and when I went back in the second time with the same complaints she basically asked me what I wanted her to do about it.

WORST doctor I’ve ever had at UW!
This is the worst PCP I have ever had at UW Health! She is cold, unfriendly and plays with her power of being your doctor!! She needs to be fired!

Run, do not see her! Horrible experience
I had an appointment today with a PA and she was not able to prescribe certain meds so I asked her to talk to a Dr on staff for help. Metzger was the only one there. When she came back in the room I was told that Metzger would not help me because I fired her as a Dr. I fired Metzger because I went in for a physical and she falsified my medical records. She described by breasts, but never did a breast exam, said my back had no curvature but I have scoliosis. I can't believe that she would refuse to help a patient in need.

AWFUL! I have switched providers! I have multiple health issues that I have to battle each & every day. Her entire focus has been that I am on controlled substances & current protocol for their use. My dosage was changed without any conversation or explanation. . . or how I could adjust my body to the lower dosage. She saw me once in person & once on a phone visit. Never once did she ask me, "How are you doing?" Instead, "So, what's today's visit about?"

I feel like I didn't get any answers about my MRI . I don't know what to do now that I have thinning of the bones. She never called or explained what to do to help it. And I am terrible parn.
