Review for Dr. Ringeisen
Unfortunately, a phone conversation with a staff member at Dr. David Shrake's office was marked by significant rudeness. This experience has negatively impacted my perception of the practice, and I hope for improvements in how phone inquiries are managed.

Review for Dr. Alapati
Dr. Hansen was genuine, concise, direct, and completely approachable. I left my consultation appointment feeling I was part of a team rather than simply a patient. I’m confident in my choice to have surgery because of the care and attention I received.
