I provide comprehensive ear, nose and throat care for patients of all ages to ensure the best possible outcomes for everyone. I am also passionate about helping patients eliminate their health-related obstacles so they can live comfortably and enjoy time with loved ones.
Personal Statement
I take every opportunity to immerse myself in the beautiful Northwoods, and I enjoy spending time with my friends and family. I like to stay active by hiking, boating, swimming and participating in winter sports.

I did not receive a reminder. That is the second time in a row that this has happened. I did receive a reminder after I checked in.

My visit was good, but I am still waiting to get the appointment set up for an MRI. She said they would call me. How long does it take to make a phone call.

Cassandra was the best. Patient, caring, went out of her way when she noticed something suspicious on my ear. Had a Dr come and check it out. Something I will follow up with. Yup, she's GOOD. Thank you Cassandra.
