    "Yes. I had a little issue when I went to the lab and got my blood taken in that when the individual who took my blood asked me which arm, I said the left arm. And when they went to take it blood spurted out and then they had decided they would do it on the right arm. But on that arm in which the blood spurted out and I've got a really big bruise, so I don't know, just thought I'd mention about that. Maybe it's just something that's you can't help it, it's going to happen now and then. But typically, I have real good results in that area whereby the blood comes out real easily, no issues with the veins. So anyway, that was all I wanted to say. And then one other thing, the doctor had prescribed me a medication in which the very symptoms that I was complaining about were side effects of that particular medicine"

    "Dr. Winsky was kind and attentive, however, when I called to make the appointment this morning I specifically asked the receptionist if I could get in with my primary provider, Katy Wethal. I told her I know Katy is usually booked, but i wanted to check before I went to acute care. The receptionist said "I can get you in at 2:30", leading me to believe I was being seen by Katy. It wasn't until I got the reminder text 30 minutes prior to the appt that I realized I wasn't seeing Katy. If I had know that all along, I would have just gone to acute care rather than waiting 6 hours and missing work."

    "Dr. Winsky is a refreshing doctor because she's always remembers/knows, the past history of my daughter with autism, there's a lot of details that are important to know. And she does not make me feel rushed to get out of The office. She gives us plenty of time and she does acknowledge my daughter like any other patient, which is refreshing as [REDACTED] has limited functional communication. Another important fact about Dr. Winsky is my daughter looks forward to seeing her, and that tells volumes. Dr. Winsky is an exceptional doctor."

    "My experience with the Dr. Winky went well. I am very disappointed that it took so long for them to send my prescription to Target CVS. I left doctors office at 1:20 & at 4:00 the pharmacy didn't have the order yet. Pharmacy called about the meds & over 45 minutes before they got the order to fill. I sat & waited there for over one hour & ten minutes to get my meds. I live in Galena I wasn't going to go home & come back to Dubuque. If I would have gotten my medicine I might of gotten two does in yesterday. Then the clinic told the Pharmacy the clinic sent the meds to my mail order insurance. I needed the meds now not two weeks from now. I had told both the nurse & Dr. Winsky Target CVS. Both repeated it back to me. Very disappointed it the way this was handled. Sitting sick in Target was no fun."

    "Hi. I would like it known that I have had the best treatment each time I've been there from the nurses, from the desk clerks, from the volunteers, and especially from Amy Winsky. So I'm well cared for when I'm at Mercy Clinic. And I love how you don't keep us waiting much in the waiting rooms. I think we should end up using the floors there, particularly at the West Clinic, for dances on the weekend on that first floor. You could make money just having them dance because the bathrooms would be available if you hardened off the other parts that they won't need to use. It would be a wonderful experience."
