Mayo Clinic 2018Patient Reviews for Jay Bergquist, MD
-
Dr. Bergquist makes me feel like I'm his only patient, although I know I'm not, by his non-rushed demeanor and his attention to my care.
-
The doctor came in with his nurse to discuss/ consult. He spoke to me in medical terms instead of having the compassion to make sure I understood. It was as though he really didn't have the time and as if I should not be questioning him or asking questions.
-
Provider dismissed the origination of my tumor (provided to me by surgeon and Oncologist). Provider did not know I am still doing Chemo therapy, so now I am not sure if the provider even looked at my medical chart prior to appointment.
-
Explained conditions and recommended care.
-
Dr Bergquist has a great chair side manner. He was thorough and took time to address all my questions.
-
I spoke with him about doing a procedure to drain a cyst on my pancreas if the new CT scan showed it was necessary.
-
To me these two, Dr. V and Dr. Bergquist are so amazing
-
Again great communication explained everything and listened to my questions
-
Dr. Bergquist is probably the best doctor I have ever encountered. Very caring!
-
No follow-up until after surgery but confident it will be very good.
-
Well done! Dr. Berkquist and Suzanne are simply the best.
