“Dr. Glessner is wonderful, I have been a patient of hers for years. She is patient, kind and takes her time you never feel rushed.”
Tabetha T.June 5, 2019
“Dr Glessner and nurses are wonderful. The office staff is hit and miss. Its a shame because, they are the doctor's first patient contact. A recent experience, would have had me looking for a new doctor, if I had not had previous experiences with Dr. Glessner and nurses. But if it happens again, I will be pursuing other options. The medical profession is big business now, and every billable patient counts. There are many doctors that would be glad to take on a new patient.”

We waited a little longer than the previous visit but Dr. Glessner apologized for it. Her father was hospitalized that day.

She is so kind and patient. It always takes some time to get in, but she has a great bedside when you finally see her. I'm not really a fan of the other doctors in her practice.

I really like Dr. glessner. Physicians don't have a ton of time with patients in general nowadays but she has a very warm bedside manner and the appointment does not feel rushed. She shows you that she is really listening to you. Very professional.

This was my first visit with Dr. Glessner. I thought she was very thorough and answered all of my questions. I was in to check for possible Lyme. I was able to get lab work done right away at the onsite Lab. The online appointment scheduling was awesome! Wish they had developed it sooner! Overall, great experience.
