01/20/2023

Dr. Marquardt speaks very fast and is sometimes hard to understand, especially when wearing a mask. I am hearing impaired even with hearing aides, I have to ask her to repeat herself and there are times when I still can't understand her.

01/11/2023

Sometimes it feels a little rushed but I am at a place in my diagnosis that hours of questions would probably feel rushed.

Dr. Marquardt is one of the most personable doctors I have had in my lifetime. She cares a great deal for each patient as a person, besides caring for their health alone.

09/27/2022

I had an hour wait in the patient room. They were busy. Would have liked some consistent communication so I didn't feel forgotten.

09/16/2022

She listens and asks questions. She is familiar with my history and how it impacts current status. I feel that I can contact her if I'm having an issue and she would be receptive and take me seriously. She follows through to make sure any request is taken to a resolution.

05/13/2022

Doctor, on this last visit, didn't read my chart as she mentioned wanting to put me on a medication that I had already tried and got a skin reaction from it.

05/02/2022

As usual, very good.

04/27/2022

04/15/2022

Dr Marquardt is my favorite Doctor. She listens to me, updates me on my tests, condition, and meds. Dr Marquardt is very personal and easy to talk too.Sometimes going to the Dr can be an anxious experience. I never have that feeling when I see Dr Marquardt.

02/26/2022

Dr. M. Is always professional and caring along with her staff

02/25/2022

I was told I had rheumatoid arthritis, time went on, I suffered a medication reaction, decided to get a second opinion. The opinion was I don't think you have RA, they thought possible connective tissue disease like lupus. She admitted she doesn't think I have RN, but will only change my diagnosis to UCTD.

02/22/2022

Dr. Marquardt listened, was empathetic with new kidney problem and surgery. Concerned about antibody against COVID.

02/21/2022

Dr. April was very caring and concerned about getting to the bottom of my problem and was honest about likely not finding anything wrong as many other doctors have tried.

02/15/2022

Well organized, very informed, knowledgeable, up to date on newest medicine and recalls all things you have discussed, personable!

02/15/2022

I have osteoarthritis, I asked if I could get any other relief, didn't check the foot or hands - and said - NO I have checked with other rheumatologist and YES I can get injections for pain - THANK-YOU.

02/14/2022

Quick and didn't seem very interested or concerned.

02/13/2022

Short When provider said let's take a look at your joints, she took my hands in hers, looked down for 2 seconds, dropped them, and went back to her computer. She asked do you need refill and a couple how's it going with job, retirement plans, and done.

02/08/2022

As usual this visit was a very good follow up for my health needs .

02/02/2022

I could not ask for a better provider on this visit. Dr. Marquardt consistently does excellant care for me and answers whatever questions I have about my health problems and medications.

01/31/2022

Excellent care, intelligent & knowledgeable, & very professional

01/30/2022

Excellent & professional as always.

12/17/2021

Dr Marquardt is my favorite Dr. She listens very well, and makes sure I understand what she is telling me. When I message her with a medical question, she gets back to me the same day. I have alot of confidence in her. She looks out for me, and that Is Important to me.

I travel to see Dr. Marquardt and I appreciate the time and the care see takes with me understanding I live 4 hours away. She is very helpful finding places in the town I live to get additional tests done. Thank you

10/31/2021

I really felt seen and heard at this office with all of the staff and providers.

10/27/2021

I know masks make discussions difficult, but I would like the doctor to talk slower and in layman's terms as I had to ask numerous questions because I'm not educated on medical terminology.

10/26/2021

Very respectful of my condition

10/24/2021

I don't think enough time was scheduled for an initial rheumatologist appointment but I understand the insurance companies and the medical systems treat the doctors like they are just employees. History and physical should not be rushed through with a new patient. Again this is more of a systems issue rather than a doctor issue.

10/22/2021

Very willing to help with my condition.

10/18/2021

They always treat me great every time I go

10/13/2021

Dr. Marquardt is fantastic! Highly recommend.

10/02/2021

First time seeing dr. OK. Really don't know her! Seemed very concerned, informative & kind.

09/30/2021

I feel like when I tell a doctor that my condition is interfering with my life and occupation that they would spend more than 10 mins looking mr over. Very disappointed

09/23/2021

She was very pleasant. Everyone was masked, of course but it made it difficult for me to hear and understand what was being said at times. Doc. talked pretty fast too.

09/21/2021

She is very caring and knowledgeable and she really listens to you.

09/20/2021

I arrived extra early and was accommodated in getting in early.

08/17/2021

Just wanted to push me out the door! No care whatsoever.

08/02/2021

Thoroughly discussed my treatment options for RA.

08/02/2021

All of the caregivers in this office were kind, courteous and extremely attentive. I felt that they treated me with the utmost respect. I was given a plan, and things were explained to me well.

07/30/2021

Dr. Marquardt is always very friendly and caring, bedides being thorough.

07/27/2021

Exceptional - Kind attentive professional as she always is!

07/20/2021

Personable, communicative, pleasant, professional.

Very caring and considerate. I trust and respect this provider.

06/15/2021

Dr. Marquardt has always provided me with very excellent care. I've had her as my Rheumatologist for many years and I appreciate her very much.

06/01/2021

This was my first visit with Dr.Marquardt, and I had no idea what to expect from a rheumatologist. She was very personable yet professional while reading over the notes sent to her from D. Monterey Brandt regarding my current medical history. She asked relevant questions and explained what she was recommending as the next steps to take. I appreciated her action and reassurance[ . . . ]
