    Dr. Paul Degenfelder definitely met and exceeded my expectations. I worked in the healthcare field as a licensed clinical Social Worker for the VA 37 years and I am always concerned about whether a provider listens and responds to my concerns. Dr. Degenfelder fully met my expectations because he is knowledgeable, compassionate with excellent communication skills. I am thankful that I found him.
