Dr Boettcher was great. But the video call kept disconnecting and when she tried to call on the phone we could not get a decent audio connection. We were only able to hear a part of the call so the appointment was very disappointing from a communication technology.

She was attentive and carefully listened to me and felt she gathered lots of info regarding my health. Very easygoing but intuitive…. Felt she had my best interests at heart…that I would be in good hands should she be my Dr.

Along with an intern in the office Dr Boettcher really listens and “Pays attention” to what you are really saying without wasting her time!
