MIchael Wert's Online Review Report Card

I will always be thankful to Dr. Wert for getting to the root cause of my underlying medical issues. He does not believe in the 'band aid' solutions, he really wants to help heal you as a whole. While my symptoms were lung related, he took the extra step to refer me to another specialist who diagnosed me. No other doctor took that step, and I really appreciated his help.

Dr Wert has a complete conversation with you getting all details of your health. He listens and doesn’t rush the patient in and out.

I went to Dr. Wertz a few months ago and was concerned by some of his reviews. I thought he was great. He went over my concern and explained everything to me. I was very pleased with him and he was very pleasant.

I was referred to Dr. Wert by my GP. I had been coughing for months and the cough was getting worse. He started treating me for allergies and when I did not get any better he made it sound as if it was my fault, I must not be doing what he recommended. This went on for many many months and my health continued to worsen. My family begged me to see another doctor but I thought "well he is a specialist so I should be able to trust him". I called to be fit in to see Dr. Wert and could barely get onto the table without assistance from the nurse. I had been experiencing severe chest pains and demanded an x-ray. Dr. Wert said he felt it was "unnecessary" but if I insisted he would order it. I had an x-ray and within hours the office called and had me come in for a CT scan. Dr. Wert then told me I had a tumor in my lung only to later say it was possibly an infection. After a biopsy, the Mayo clinic confirmed I had NH Lymphoma. There was a baseball size tumor in my chest. Dr. Wert failed me. If I had not fought for the x-ray, I would have been dead within months. My lung had collapsed, my ribs were broken and the tumor was growing so large it was pressing on my airway. I know doctors are busy and have heavy caseloads but they have to "hear" their patients when they are telling them something is wrong.

Dr. Wert was kind, professional and thorough. I felt that he took the time to listen and answer all of my questions and I was very happy with my experience.

My wife (who is Vietnamese) brought her ex (who is Montagnard and dying)end stage of COPD. Dr. Wert was not very pleasant, grilled them like they were criminals and made reference that they were looking for some benefits (which was puzzling) because his family physician said he had 6 months to live. That is a head scratcher. He asked what kind of insurance he had and how long he’s been in the US? She over heard Dr. Wert tell the nurse they (in essence) were lying to him. Very unprofessional and disrespectful. We can’t speak for the other physicians, but I would not recommend Michael Wert!

I've been going to him for 3 years. He is no better now than he was when i first started with him.I was ""given" to him, because my Dr had changed jobs and left the practice. He always seems like he can't remember one visit from the last. If it is not his way, then he will tell you to hit the door. I can't get my head around a doctor screaming at a patient because i wrote something on on my "Medicine Calendar" in the wrong place. His face was so red--I didn't know whether to laugh or punch him!!! To say I was mildly shocked at his behavior would be safe!! I finished up with him, made follow up with his PA, got to my car shaking! I've got to find another Pulmonary doctor and practice!!!!!

Istruggled with life threatening asthma for 2 years....4 critical care hospital stays while under the care of a team of doctors. Two years ago, after asking my very trusted OBGYN to recommend someone, she suggeated Dr. Wert. At the first visit, there was a barrage of questions; then, long silence. He told me to stop all meds from the other doctors and prescribed a single medication. My asthma has stayed under control and I have felt really good since!

Dr. Wert is a God send to my family. He is patient, professional, caring, and experienced. We are so happy we found him.

My doctor left this practice and I was referred to Dr Wert! I won't go back! He was very cold...does not look you in the eye, and doesn't listen. I left, feeling like I had thrown my money into the wind.
