Verified patient
Dr. Michael Ignell was simply amazing. Coming from Arizona where I had the same doctor for over 20 years I was nervous at this appointment as he was the 3rd doctor I've had in two years. Things that I loved about him: - Bedside Manner - Active Listener - Caring - Patient - Great Communicator - Down to earth Overall, I give Dr. Ignell A++, so far as the first visit, I love this doctor and this office. I'm very confident that only good things are to come. If anything changes, I'll update my post.
Verified patient
I came to him for an annual physical. He answered all my questions and went above and beyond with his work to help me with a few things I have going on. I would definitely recommend him to others.
Verified patient
First and foremost, I would like to highlight your warm and welcoming demeanor. Your genuine concern for your patients is evident in every interaction, making me feel comfortable and at ease from the very beginning. Your ability to actively listen, empathize, and address my concerns with patience and clarity instilled a sense of trust and confidence in your medical expertise. Your vast knowledge and meticulous attention to detail are truly commendable. You possess a remarkable ability to explain complex medical concepts in a way that is both accessible and informative. I greatly appreciate the time you took to thoroughly explain my diagnosis, treatment options, and potential risks, ensuring that I was actively involved in making informed decisions about my healthcare. Thank you ?? Doctor Ignell.
Verified patient
The doctor was fine. Unfortunately gp’s can’t help as much as in the olden days as their hands are tied by regulations so that only specialists can do anything for you.
Verified patient
Great doctor!
Verified patient
I'm a plus size gal who has a fear of doctors due to my weight. Dr. Ignall sat down and spoke to me like a real person, not looking down on me. I was comfortable discussing everything without fear of judgment. I felt like he actually heard me and wanted to find solutions that fit my individual situation. I highly suggest this doctor and this practice.

Verified patient
Dr. Ignell is a good listener who listened to my concerns, inquired about my illness, and clearly communicated what might be going on with me. The nurse, staff and office was clean, friendly, and professional. Overall a pleasant experience.
Verified patient
Wonderful medical crew…. From the smiling, friendly receptionist at the front desk, to the medical assistant at the back, and the knowledgeable physician himself, overall this was a very highly quality medical visit
It was bad enough the the drs assistant wore a mask. but the dr did also! A sign that they are not with recent information that masks are and always have been useless! Plus it makes having a decent communication difficult and just looks foolish. This guy must really think that all people over the age are just old and need to be treated as such. "just old"!
Verified patient
Dr. Ingell was very thorough and helpful. He listened to all my concerns and gave me lots of information and next steps. He is also very inclusive when it came to talking about sexuality.
Verified patient
My last doctor really didn’t give me the peace of mind I was looking for. Doctor Ignell was so thorough and really helped me with every concern I had without feeling rushed or judged. Could not possibly be happier with my decision to switch.
