    Dr. Wengel is an excellent doctor!!! He has been practicing for, I think, quite a long time, so is very experienced! He has found what has worked and not worked to help people with anxiety and depression. He is a good listener, empathetic, and shares educational materials and information. This session he asked if I minded if an intern would sit in? I said it would be fine, that's the only way they're going to learn. After all, it's a teaching hospital and clinics! I told her there is a tremendous need and not to drop out like I did. She said she wouldn't. She asked some good questions! I feel she did a great job!!!

  • Jan 06, 2025

    I'm impressed with Dr. Wengel. And, I'm not easily impressed. I feel very comfortable in sharing with him. And, he is very knowledgeable, experienced, open in sharing with me what he has found that seemed to work for other patients and then lets me decide which path I feel comfortable in taking. He's educational in sharing resources, groups, books and other materials in my quest to becoming healthy and staying healthy. He is very professional and yet seems very personable.

  • Sep 20, 2024

    Dr Wengel takes the approach that the patient and the doctor are a team. He is not authoritarian or patronizing. He shows empathy while listening and gives positive feedback. He imparts a sense of hope to a patient who is struggling.
