Patient Reviews
Jan 04, 2023
While Dr. Wolfgang's experience may place him as a top provider; his team's awareness of the disease they are actually treating is close to null. His team failed to understand the urgency of time when it comes to cancer and used poor excuses to postpone appointments. The doctor was always "busy" or "on holiday/conferences". Cancer doesn't wait! This resulted in the change of the patient's prognosis from stage 2 (resectable) to a stage 4 (metastasis) for mere negligence. When I tried to provide feedback re: his team's actions, at first, Dr. Wolfgang appeared very interested to hear about the details of the circumstances that led to my mother's treatment being ignored during a crucial time. But after 3 attempts at providing such details, Dr. Wolfgang continuously, and very purposely, evaded the subject and never followed-up. In conclusion, because of his team's unprofessionalism and disregard, my mother's surgery was canceled and her life expectancy shortened from years to months.
