Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Very nice and understanding
He performed a uterine polyp removal for me in 2020. He was very understanding to my fear of any type of anesthesia, and agreed to do the procedure sans anesthesia. He monitored my pain (there was none) throughout, and was very informative as to what he was doing and seeing during the procedure. I liked his bedside manner, and the way he spoke with his staff. I will likely try seeing him for my next pap checkup, as my previous provider retired.

Wonderful experience, wonderful doctor!
Dr. Wagener helped me through a high risk pregnancy after a previous full-term loss. I never felt rushed or like he was talking down to me. He answered all my questions in ways that I would understand. He always provided me with my options and we made decisions together rather than just being told what he was going to do- which was great.

He helped maintain both of my pregnancies. I miscarried at least 3 babies before coming to him. I am truly thankful to God and Dr. Wagener for both of our beautiful blessings. He also saved my life in 2014. The life of my daughter in February 2017. I praise God for Dr. Wagener. Our son is now a thriving 2.5 year old. 2 miracles. 3 when u include my life.

He doesn't have good bedside manners! He delivered my first child and was extremely rude and unprofessional towards my family members, while I was in labor. In addition,his behavior was brought up to administration. He comes of quite arrogant. And is NOT a GENUINE human being. I would never recommend this OB/GYN to anyone. It was not the experience I anticipated nor planned.

1st saw Dr. Wagener in 2014 - was told to have a follow up with my Dr. yr later - I did - a year and half later I am Dr. Wagener for the same reason as the first time. He said nice to meet you - when I told him I saw him for the same issue in 2014 he acted like he didn't know that - um didn't you look at my file before coming in to see me. After talking to a few other specialists they would have treated me differently than he did at 2nd appt if read file - no confidence in him at all!
