Providence Patient
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.

All good. He listens well and answers questions thoroughly, and follows up with appropriate tests.

Providence Patient
The provider, Dr. Grothaus, is by far the best primary care provider physician I have ever had both within and outside of the Kadlec organization. Frankly, most Kadlec physicians spend a short amount of time with the patient and then usually in front of the computer screen. It is clear Dr. Grothaus is a skilled physician, but he displays excellent interpersonal and communication skills. This skill and ability really cannot be taught to most. It would be wise to leverage these skills In training other physicians and health care providers within the Kadlec system...
Providence Patient
Excellent caring clean to understand.
Providence Patient
All good.
