    I have already recommended this doctor to two other families who have family members experiencing issues in this area. We have been through a series of doctors since May trying to find answers, and Dr. Wise was by far the most knowledgeable, professional, and frankly, the kindest physician we encountered in the process. She clearly explained concerns in a manner that was easy to understand, and put us on the path to correct treatment after months of frustration. I understand completely why she was so highly recommended by friends in the community and other physicians.

    I felt as if the decision, to treat me, had already been made before she even came into the room. While the decision was correct I felt I was hitting a brick wall when I was asking about other options. It appeared she didn't believe my issue was enough of a problem to even pursue a resolution.

    This must have been an off day as Dr was not her normal empathetic self. She seemed annoyed that my retired allergist husband wanted to share his thoughts. I believe what he was sharing was helpful. I feel Dr Wise is very competent and don't want this feedback to be harmful. I am only stating that we left feeling unheard. We asked open ended questions about possible next steps and she was not open to discussing. No possible outcomes, no possible pathways other than increase rinses and get MRI

    I'm used to emory physicians being extremely kind and welcoming and that was not what I experienced at this visit. I'm also not sure why I got examined twice, first by a PA and then by the physician. They seemed really eager to tell me I was fine and get me out the door. Not the worst visit I've had but certainly not a provider I'd recommend.
