Dr. Marla Wolfert, MD

I actually like her when I went to her and she seemed to be concerned. She told me I couldn’t have the IBS I had all the symptoms for due to my age. Come to find out after a further year of nearly constant pain and suffering that I do indeed have Chron’s and more importantly have a rare case of chronic appendicitis! I had this when I saw her. She not only missed this but also the Chron’s and actually made me think some of this must be in my head. I finally was so I’ll that I had to see another doctor who after a simple CT scan had all the answers. I also found that I could have died from the chronic appendicitis. She neither listened nor was thorough enough or cared enough to truly help me.

A family member actually recommended Dr. Wolfert to me. Finding a female gastroenterologist for my GI care was crucial to me due to my extensive history of childhood sexual abuse and assaults by males. As a result, PTSD and anxiety have caused me to neglect my GI health far many years. At my initial consultation with Dr. Wolfert, she immediately put me at ease with her genuine care, concern, and gentleness. I appreciated her empathy and wise counsel, offering suggestions to calm my fears and options for treatment that I could easily accept. I left Dr. Wolfert’s office after that consultation filled with optimism and confidence in my new gastroenterologist!
