Dr. Dreifke is an excellent provider. He had an excellent bedside manner with me, answered my questions, and treated me with respect. He listened to my concerns, and gave me options- which isn’t something many MDs do these days. He treated my difficult skin issue and provided insight to some other issues I was experiencing. I trust his judgement, and will continue to get my checkups here
