I was pleasantly surprised this visit. Doctor Grothaus made an admission he wasn't doing all he could for his patients. He realized he had not been discussing nutrition as much with his patients as he should have been. He Is concerned about my blood sugar levels and suggested I take care of it by watching my sugar intake and just eating healthy. I have not heard that from my former doctors for decades. I am very happy with the entire staff. Great team.
