Dr. Longwolf is awesome! I appreciated her kindness and compassion. She is very knowledgeable. Likely if you are seeing her you are headed to surgery. She put my mind at ease knowing she has the skill and confidence. I went in apprehensive and left feeling at peace. I am also in the medical profession and get to experience both sides of things. I absolutely will be referring any patients to her that need her expertise. The other feeling I got was that she is a real person. Not an arrogant surgeon, I know plenty of them. She is relatable in a way that any patient she comes in contact feels like they are importantly het. 10/10!
I could tell she was in a hurry and was nothing like she was a year ago. Last year very concerned, this year not so much!
