    Doctor Widmann is great. Very down to earth regular guy who makes you feel comfortable while projecting knowledge and professionalism. I would not go to anyone else for surgical consultation or actual surgery.

    We were taken into exam room promptly , but waited 25 minutes for the nurse practitioner, then 15 minutes for the doctor. But we liked both of them very much. Dr gave us the answer to my problem so worth waiting for the Dr..
