“Dr. Bruntel is a very good communicator without being too technical. He explains things very clearly. He also takes time to listen to and answer questions. The office staff is friendly and efficient. I never have to wait more than 5 or 10 minutes.”

“I would definitely refer Dr. Bruntel to my friends or family members. His bedside manner was very good. A good listener and patient.
He was knowledgeable and answered all my questions in a way that was easy to understand.
My appointment was right on time. I didn’t have to wait too long before being called into a room. And not long before Dr. Bruntel came in. They respected my time.
Making an appointment was quick,”

December 12, 2025William C.Verified patient
The check in process was quick and easy. Unfortunately, Dr. Bruntel stood throughout our entire conversation. There were no personal questions about my lifestyle and no rapport was built during our less than 15 minute conversation. He did listen to my concerns and developed a plan of care which I appreciated.

Dr. Bruntel is patient, listens and asks good questions that you may not - that positively impact your individualized situation.
You would be lucky to have him as your physician.
October 9, 2024Cecily C.Verified patient
Horrible. Nurses at the front were giggling the minute we walked in. When the patient was called, I told the nurse the situation, and she did nothing to help.
She showed no love, empathy, or compassion towards him.
The nurse did other things that I refused to mention.
She was not clean doing that procedure.
As a health care worker, I was amazed at her performance.
I am reporting on behalf of the patient.
I marveled at her performance
Which was very bad
She needs more training.
The Dr was superb.
He asked all the right questions
He listens attentively, and he shows compassion.
He gave us recommendations
And much more.
I gave the Dr a 10
We are well pleased.

He has been very supportive as I battle with my anxiety and depression. I’m struggling to find what works for me but he listens to my concerns, which I find it to be rare in some providers.
April 11, 2024Danielle A.Verified patient
Trustworthy doc that helps navigate the piles of BS all too often blocking patients from accessing efficient, effective, and ultimately clinically beneficial medical care. Love Dr. Bruntel, his training as a DO makes his clinical expertise, particularly with history taking, a cut above, making him an obvious choice for those looking to prevent illness rather than respond.

calm and excellent bedside manner.
