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.

I would NOT RECOMMEND Dr. Mark Walterskirchen to anyone. My experiences with him make it seem that he is more interested in himself than providing quality care to his patients. I am an established patient with Dr. Walterskirchen, and over the course of 2-1/2 years I have had several negative experiences with him and with another PA who worked with him. Each time I voiced my concerns so those issues could be addressed and corrected as needed. This last summer,. I began experiencing gross hematuria - visible blood clots and blood in my urine almost daily - (some clots quite large - a very concerning issue), so I requested an appointment. His office called back right away to set up the appointment, but I was told that earliest he could see me was nearly 3 months out. That was totally unacceptable to me considering the circumstances. I felt that I was being put off due to voicing my concerns in the past. I called another urologist and was able to get in as a new patient in less than 3 weeks, and arrangements were made to perform all the necessary diagnostics on the first visit and determine a course of treatment. This experience stands in stark contrast with the "service" provided by Dr. Walterskirchen.

A little gruff at first, but warms up with some time. After talking with Dr. Walterskichen, it was obvious that he is very good at what he does. I had no doubt that I was with the surgeon that the Lord intended me to be with. I would highly recommend Dr Walterskirchen for any of your urology needs.

Dr Walterskirchen was amazing. I recently had a run in with a large kidney stone and a severe infection as well. I stayed 3 days in the hospital due to his insistence that I be out of the woods before I was sent home. He made sure I was well taken care of. Very kind and explained things clearly. I would highly reccomend him. (I have not visited his office so was not able to rate that.)
