Dr. Watt is always an exceptional, like family. Always positive, but always answered every question. And his nurse Tammy was so thorough. Josh, that took me back for my nuclear test. The girl that did the other camera of my heart. Everyone there was absolutely marvelous, we always come away feeling like nothing was left behind. And the girl, Rachel that checked us in, wow. Thank you for hiring the staff that you have hired. It's so hard

We were very well satisfied with Dr. Watt, we love to see him come to our town where we could visit him more often instead of making the drive to Sioux Falls. But we know that's impossible but I would recommend him to anyone. Very helpful.

Dr. Watt was wonderful to visit with and he listened to me. He is kind and very good at explaining things to me and helping to answer questions. He is, probably one of the best physicians I, I know of and see. And I just very much appreciate his knowledge and his kindness and his bed side manner. So I'd highly recommend him. Thank you.

My experience there was phenomenal. Right from the beginning to the end, and as a matter of fact and incidentally, I lost a hearing aid while I was there, one of my hearing aids, and your lost and found found it, had it. So that was a positive experience as well. My experience with the doctor was extraordinarily good, great, and I came away with more knowledge than I that I had before and I appreciate it and thank you very much.

Short staffed and it shows. Providers are not on the same page so it's important to stay on top of what each one of them is "telling" you, as they do contradict each other.
