I booked online but didn't have an option for what I needed to be seen for so I was scheduled for a Medicare wellness check.what I needed was to discuss possibly beginning statin medicine for high LDL levels. Tracy was very thorough in reviewing my health history and explaining options before I chose to be scheduled for a heart test (which she explained was out of pocket cost) that would help in knowing if statins were necessary.

Every one is usually very pleasant and friendly when I have an appointment. I am usually seen fairly quickly and don't have to wait long. I use "My Chart" for sending in questions or requesting assistance and this usually works very well. Right before my appointment I need to have some medications refilled and it took several days and they never did get refilled and I had to request some emergency supply from my pharmacy. Tracy explained that if an appointment is within 2 days of their getting to the request, they don't authorize the refill and just wait to let her deal with it. As a result, I missed taking one medication for 2 days in a row because it had not been refilled and I had used up the emergency supply.

I have seen Tracy L for quite a while and I like her personality - doesn't 'lecture' just makes sure you know what would be best for you to do to improve your health.

Tracy is the best doctor I have ever had.

I've been seeing Dr. Tracy for several years; the past 4 as my primary care physician. She knows my medical history, and is very attentive to my overall health. Do NOT reprimand her in any way - she just seemed "rushed" on this last visit. [...]

My mother has dementia, although she is able to be conversant in the present moment. I bring her to all her appointments. Tracy Luchsinger is very kind and respectful towards her and directs questions to her, while I elaborate after my mom has answered.
