Patient Reviews
Nov 02, 2019
Dr Wilks was able to reassure me that I didn't have several cardiac health issues another doctor told me I had. He knew the reputation of the previous doctor and let me know that my sense that something was wrong with the dire diagnosis I'd received was accurate. When it came to the one issue that did need to be treated, he involved me in my options and we made the treatment choice together. He listens, has a kind and gentle demeanor and is someone I trust.
