I really liked conversing about my problems and there connection to reason I was seeing Dr Wolfe. Easily talked to him, he to me. Very understandable.

Premier had moved the check in on the second floor and provided NO signs or directions to new check in. Walk back down stairs to find out where check in had been relocated. Really poor management !!!!!!

Dr. Sanford Wolfe listened and answered all my questions. I was very pleased with him as a physician. It was very difficult to get an appointment .with him. There are not enough specialists in his field.

Always a great time in the office.....
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 2/27/2024
The visit was fine and like most visits. Only issue was they changed to a different suite and we were not notified. We were at the front desk across from the elevator for 10 minutes with no one there. Usually there is someone there. I assume if there had been they would have told us Dr. Wolfe was now across the hall. There were signs for other offices on the main reception desk across from the elevator, but none regarding Dr. Wolfe. Mom has a hard time standing so I had her sit down. I walked down the hall. Dr Wolfe was on the right hand side and there were no signs on his door. So I walked back down to the desk across from the main desk and called the office. At that point one of the two girls that were at the office came out and called us down the hall. Dr Wolfe had moved across the hall. A sign ANYWHERE would have been appropriate. It was 1:58 when I called the office. The appointment was for 2. If they were not going to put out signs it would have been nice if they were watching for us. When I said something to the 2 front girls said it was their first day in the new office. Perhaps that would have been a clue to them that they should have put signs up letting patients know Dr Wolfe had moved across the hall and given his new suite number. I asked if they had just opened after lunch and was told no, they had been there in the morning. Takes 2 minutes to make a sign. Not very considerate for the patients. When we left the office we noticed they did finally put a sign on the main desk across from the elevator. The funny thing about the sign was that they said Dr Wolfe's office was at the end of the hall. Might have been smarter to say that Dr Wolfe moved across the hall and given the new suite number. Especially since his old office was also at the end of the hall on the opposite side. The MA was great and I've been taking mom to see Dr Wolfe for years since my dad died in 1999.

The doctor is very soft spoken and my mom (the patient) can't hear what he says. I (her daughter and PoA) talks to dr and takes notes for mom. I can hear dr fine.

Best doctor ever

To Premier Health, Please permit Dr. Wolfe the time I need to fully cover my questions, concerns, clarifications. He is an excellent Rheumatologist and being his patient, I have the obligation to understand and manage my situation appropriately. Bottom line: My care is being compromised by the time constraints placed on this excellent physician. Thank you.

Dr. Wolfe asks questions about my health and whether I have concerns. He also follows through with appropriate testing if he feels there is a necessity to do so. I am comfortable with Dr. Wolfe and feel that he has provided me with excellent care and advice over the years.

Dr. Wolfe is the BEST doctor in Dayton Ohio. He listens, he observes, and always fixed the problem.

Owners such as Premier Health need to respect a physician who has more than proven his qualifications and not in any way hinder his ability to give his patients the quality care he is capable of offering. I've been his patient since 1988 and consider him the most qualified and caring Dr I've ever had.

Dr. Sanford is always respectful and shows true concern for his patients. He is knowledgeable and is always providing new research based findings as appropriate. He demonstrates extreme competence along with compassion. Dr Sanford is the definition of what a doctor should mean- which unfortunately is rare these days, and getting even more rare with many of the newer generation of physicians.

I know that to learn my test results I need to use MyChart. I usually have difficulty signing in and often just give up on the whole procedure. I wish someone would just call me to inform me of any concerns. I guess in today's world that is an inconvenience.

I love Dr Wolfe as my Dr. He figured out my issues before my family Dr did. I'll be lost when he is no longer my Dr. He seemed to catch more details of blood work and xrays than my other Dr. I also like that he is more personable, down to earth, and interested in what going on in your entire life to get a full picture of what's going on. Also love his personal pictures he has taken to soften up the rooms, they seem to help calm and take your mind off of the appointment
