Dr Fertig, second and third paragraph: Would like a lay person " hospital playground" to create-my team and be able to see lab and test results. Is there a way to do this on Epic? Kudos to Dr Fertig for asking if I had reviewed my bone density scan with the ordering doctor ( I hadn't) but it was good motivation for safe impact sports( like walking) in spite of my love of swimming bone density isn't helped by buoyancy. He's great at creating a concise clinical picture to motivate health for life span benefits and present.

Dr. Fertig is always very helpful and he knows a lot about epilepsy, and he shares that knowledge with me. He's also very kind, gentle, and friendly, and I find it easy to talk to him. I always leave our appointments with the information I need to live my best life with my epileptic condition.

Patient verified via Press Ganey

Always a pleasure to see Dr. Fertig as he helps me to understand what I need to do to get myself back on track as a person who is epileptic. I run into confusion about what steps to take next, that's maybe because I'm not mentally stable or getting the help I need to push myself forward.

Dr. Fertig is an excellent neurologist with the best bed side manor I have ever experienced. He has guided me through my epilepsy adventure and subsequent treatments (including a four day stay in the epilepsy clinic). I could not be more pleased with his approach and support.
