Patient Reviews
Jul 19, 2023
I was very impressed and happy with the fact that Dr. Praamsma 1.Has always been in a good mood, laughing, asks questions, actually listens, gets every bit of info he needs instead of bits and pieces, explains everything so you understand, goes by his own opinion and not what others say, discusses treatments with you and wants your input on them as well, and my favorite thing about him and his care is that he treats you like a person, can put you at ease instantly, really listens, is thorough, wants your input, and you can see and tell how much he loves and cares about his job and patients.. whereas, most doctors now are treating us as problems and just a job. They don't care, won't listen to you, no questions asked, and most of the time, if you have regular health issues.. they push you onto someone, or push pills, or tell you their treatment for you to do, without your thoughts on it, and won't keep you as a patient if you don't agree or have questions..plus they're very judgmental, they're always right, and act like they're better than everyone else. I love Dr. PRAAMSMA for being and acting like a human being with a heart, cares about patients in general, and then does whatever he can to get you answers and help get you better.
