My experience at IBJI, seeing Dr. Wetters was good. The doctor was calm and the experience went smoothly. He wrote me an order for an MRI which I've since scheduled, and we'll see what the Dr. says after seeing the results. All in all, a good experience.

In November I had surgery for a torn rotator cuff and bicep. Dr Guelich is a gifted surgeon, and even more than that, I have appreciated the on-going follow up care I have received. It's important to me to feel cared for and have a good rapport with my doctor. Dr. Guelich has been wonderful and so have PA Stacy and Jen. Highly recommend!
