    I look at Dr Wolferz as an adopted member of our family. He is compassionate, reaches out to his patients @ takes care of you. After my recent trip to the ER, he reached out to me to see how I was, said he'd help in any way possible & was a breath of fresh air when I heard his voice.

    Great at looking at history and asking appropriate questions. Language was used that I understood. Greeted me and shook my hand. I have had one doctor who did not even look at me.

    Dr. Wolferz is terrific! Great listener, and was able to share a lot of knowledge of nutrition and fitness. I really appreciated his balanced view of different available screenings and tests, as it is so hard to determine whether it makes sense to take every possible test that is presented to you.
