      The MA and Paula were wonderful, welcoming, and got me in very quickly. Paula wanted to make sure I could get in as soon as possible to treat my pain and to treat me until my next procedure. I feel comfortable knowing if I have any problems, she will get back to me as soon as possible.

      My appointment that morning was supposed to be at Gunderson's La Crosse, WI location. Unfortunately I showed up at the Onalaska location. The registration staff at both locations were very, very helpful! They were able to talk the providers to get me in. They treated me like I was right on time. I was so embarrassed.

      I wish I had been explained to about how long I have to wait for the injections I've already been waiting on a looooong time. My medication will run out long before that. (It has had a slight affect, but clearly it's only a "relief" and unhealthy for long term use.) I've no idea what to do in 2 weeks. Even with that appointment made; the "follow up" was supposed to be 2 weeks. It's set muuuuch longer after because she has no appointments open. Fabulous doctor/Horrible health care institution. You're short staffed. Per usual. I can't even work or provide for my daughters as a looooong time single mother. I've always counted on this hospital to understand and get me back to WORK. THIS SUCKS FOR MY FAMILY.

      I was very disappointed in the fact that I had to wait weeks for my appointment, which I understand but now I have to wait 6 weeks for treatment. No one seems concerned about how this limits my ability to live my life and enjoy it. I have a driving vacation in 2 weeks which I might have to cancel because I have a hard time sitting for long periods and they are aware of this. Even as I write this, I know nothing will change. I was an employee of Gundersen for 40 years and am so disappointed in which I wasn't shown more compassion.
