Dr. Wilgus was on time for the appointment, listened carefully to my concerns, and worked with me on my treatment plan. She has reduced the number of asthma flare ups with her treatment plan for me. She is a valuable asset to your organization

Dr Wilgus… if she were the only doctor…. She would be the example of the best available. We have constructive dialogue… she knows how to listen… she weighs the options when there are several available… simply the best

Dr. Wilgus exemplifies excellence in all areas as a physician. Her clinical expertise is obvious- I feel very well taken care Pulmonology wise- but her kind and gentle manner of working with patients and above all, her obvious desire to listen closely and with focus( never “ rushing”) creates a positive and successful clinical visit experience.
