I get really nervous when having to give blood. Missy was my phlebotomist today and she was so gentle and caring! Thank you, Missy! You’re the best!

Dr. Dold is an amazing physician. I had unexplained weight gain, painful lumps on my thighs and up to waist and no one could tell me what is was. My previous physican told me that I needed to eat less and exercise more while I was on a strict diet and exercising 5 days per week including weights, walking, rowing with the weight never budging. I asked her if it might be some kind of unusual uncommon syndrome. She told me that she knew everything about the endocrine system , she was trained at the Mayo clinic, and I just had to live with it. Dr. Dold on the other hand, listened to me, didn't scold or talk down to me. She determined that I had a rare disorder called Dercum's disease and let me know there was no treatment, but support groups who might be able to assist me. Just having a name for my problem and not being condescended to or dismissed gave me hope. I found a support group, went on the RAD (Rare Adipose Disease) diet and lost 15 pounds. My coworkers noticed the difference in two weeks and were astounded. Thank goodness there are open minded physicans who don't think they know it all and do the research to figure out what these symptoms might be and actually help patients.

I have been blessed to be a patient for over a year now. From my very first appointment, Dr. Dold’s spirit, interest, concern, and patience have been a part of every appointment. I appreciate the energy she brings when she enters the room and sits patiently asking me questions and answering all those I pose. To know I am not just another number, but am a treated as a person, whose concerns and medical challenges matter, makes her well worth the hours drive to see her. Typically, no one actually looks forward to going to the doctor, but I am genuinely always glad to go to my appointments with her. I recently shared concern of a close family friend’s experience with rheumatoid arthritis, asking if she’d please consider her as a new patient. She said yes, and I am truly grateful and excited for my friend, as I am confident she will receive the best care possible. Thank you Dr Dold for choosing to make a positive difference in the lives of your patients.
