Dr Wenzel was my doctor when I got pregnant at a young age, and was going through an adoption with the baby. She explained the papers to me that were sent to her by the lawyer, made sure I knew what I was signing before I chose to sign it. Naturally she's my doctor for this pregnancy, after some bleeding at my job and a trip to the ER Dr Wenzel called me in the evening (On her time I'm sure, as it was 8pm!) to see if I was doing better and if the bleeding had slowed down or stopped. She really cares about her patients, she is always very busy and the wait time to see her is longer than you'd expect, but that's a small price to pay for personal service like hers.

Though the wait time is ridiculous, Dr. Wenzle spent time with me and answered all my questions and even did extra work that I was not scheduled to have done during that appointment so I would not have to come in week later. You do have to schedule an appointment with her at least 4 months in advance though.

I've been seeing Dr Wenzel for 7 years now. She has always been a caring professional who has takent the time to answer my questions and discuss my concerns and work with my on my problems. She delivered both of my babies and I could not be happier with the care she provided.
