Patient Reviews
Jan 10, 2017
My elderly mother is a patient of Dr. Pels and I occasionally accompany her. Dr Pels has been an exceptional PCP. He has excellent bedside manners including explaining things to her in a way she can understand, helps her up onto the table, stabilizes her when she is unbalanced, reads her records so he knows what to follow-up with, schedules her for vision and hearing and other routine exams without us asking. He is thorough and caring. We couldn't be more satisfied.
