I’m thankful to be a patient of Dr. Wenske. Prior to Dr. Wenske, I was with the same practice for over forty years and my prior urologist retired during covid. I was panicked because I was used to a high level of care and expertise in NYC. I tried to work with several urologists before Dr. Wenske but I couldn’t establish the trust I used to have with my previous urologist. Dr. Wenske made me comfortable as a patient and I trust in his abilities.

I have been struggling with issues relating to a procedure done in Dec 2023. I've seen other doctors and have not felt like I've been giving any firm path forward, I am good with it is the way it is or there is hope, but feel like I have been in limbo. I went to see Dr Wenske as a third opinion. He is a pleasant and caring Urologist. He helped me sort out some issues and was a good listener and created a plan to go forward with some further testing. I would recommend him to others for their urological care.

The office was clean and the staff was nice, my appointment went smoothly. But it felt like the doctor was trying to hurry things up. He answered everything but interrupted with immediate answers. Overall still a good experience
