“My first visit with Dr. Mitchell was exactly what I needed. She delivered
the information directly, professionally and provided all relevant facts.
I went into the appointment with some level of concern and left with
confidence. The Fox Valley is fortunate to have Dr. Mitchell!”
“Dr. Stanelle has a great personality, he gave me a detailed explanation of the procedure in which I will need. Dr. Stanelle made me feel very comfortable and I feel that I will be in good hands on the operating table and I won’t wake up missing any unnecessary body parts.”
“I’ve seen many doctors in my life but Ive gotta say Dr. Beau Brackey was one of the most personable & thorough doctors I’ve ever met. He was excellent at explaining the complexities of my symptoms as well as the possible underlying causes. He was very mindful of my time, which was great. He was also cognizant of the potential expense of tests I may need & how to schedule them so as to get the most out of each one. He listened very carefully and asked great questions to really understand me & my lifestyle as it might pertain to my health. Can’t say enough about him. If you need an endocrinologist he’s the guy!”
“Dr. Tretinyak and his team were professional, caring and enjoyable. I have nothing but good things to say about him and his staff. Highly recommend!”
“She was so wonderful. Very detailed with explanation and didn’t leave me with any questions unanswered. I loved how she had compassion but also straight to the point but with such a calm and comfortable demeanor! I had a great experience with Dr. Mitchell and am looking forward to my surgery with her.

“Ariel was great! She explained my ultrasound great and the procedure which needed to be done. She made me feel comfortable with everything! My appointment was on time and I didn’t have to wait hardly at all. Great experience!”
“It was my first visit with Dr Krieger to discuss test results and a needed surgery. She had a good bedside manner and was very good at explaining the surgery, risks, and what to expect afterward. She didn’t hesitate to answer all of my questions without rushing me, and she exuded confidence in her ability to handle possible surgical complications that I mentioned. At the end of the appointment I believed I would be in good hands.”
“Emily was very kind. She really listened to my concerns and explained everything in a way that you can understand. She made sure I understood what was happening and what would happen next. She made sure I did not have any questions before I left. I would recommend her to anyone! Emily will make you feel very comfortable!
