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.

Love him!!!
He has been my doctor for 38 years!!! He is so warm and caring. He’s the best ever!!!

Extremely knowledgeable and kind
Dr Doelger has been treating me for a number of issues during the past year. He is open and honest about all treatments, he is knowledgeable about all issues, and he exudes confidence which I find very reassuring. In addition, he responds to questions and concerns very promptly through the portal. I am very happy to have Dr Doelger as my physician.

Excellent gynecologist
I arrived with him when I was having a loss. He grabbed my hand during the curettage and told me that everything would be fine. Months later I became pregnant and he brought my daughter into the world after a complicated pregnancy. Great doctor!

Best of the Best
I have been seeing Dr. Doelger for as long as he’s been at Hartford so I’m far from a youngster. He is competent, empathetic, has a great sense of humor, and never has a superior attitude. I can ask, or discuss, anything with him and not feel rushed. In fact, he’s probably the only doctor I actually look forward to see. One reviewer gave him 1 star (out of many 5 star reviews) - tells you all you need to know about Dr. Doelger.

He is kind, thoughtful, and thorough. He’s also very cheerful. Truly cares about my concerns and makes sure to address everything.

Great Doctor with a great bedside manner
He runs on time. He knows it's not everyone's favorite appt to go to but he uses his humor to keep things light and he moves quickly to get what he needs. Once done with business he then takes his time talking with you so you don't feel rushed and answers your questions. He's very personable and cares about your overall health.
