Dr Weikert is the best! He really listens to my questions and concerns, and doesn't blow me off or tell me my concerns aren't important.

Dr. Weikert is one of the best at VUMC. He takes the time to listen, suggest and provide options for treatment. Stays calm and kept me calm during my injections.
