Dr. Schroeder takes her time listening to my concerns and makes sure to discuss potential options to support my best health. She is smart and kind and I would recommend her to anyone seeking a new primary care provider. There can be delays when visiting Dr. Schroeder, but I know she's spending the time needed with each patient and I am grateful for her thoughtful care.

For the 3rd time, I recommend Dr. Mary Ellen Schroeder for her very good care. Better care than I received at the Emergency Room where everyone was talking to each other & didn't seem to care even though the Ambulance brought me in. Maybe they see too much there.

I was so pleased that I was able to establish as a new patient. I think she is a fantastic physician. She took her time going over my health and was very thorough. She was also a thoughtful listener, which I appreciated. I also want to mention the nurse practitioner with her was extremely pleasant and informative. It was one of the better experiences I have had at a doctor's appointment.

She was great!

Again the doctor really pays attention to what you are trying to tell her. Sometimes physicians think they know what you're going to say and they kind of over talk you.

Spent 30 years with Dr Schroeder unfortunately our relationship has come to an end she is wonderful as a pediatrician however as a 50 yr old women we are getting NOWHERE with any health concerns I have I expect to test more then blood work that's all she does. I went to a yearly exam to talk to my Dr she didn't even listen to my heart I could have saved my time and called her on the phone so upset that evening her nurse had to do 2 blood pressure checks. This visit has made me inquire a new Dr that can be more attentive to my needs

I have been seeing Dr. Schroeder for 30+ years. I trust her with mine and my family's care,
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 7/6/2023
Dr Schroeder has been my PCP for nearly 20 years off & on. I moved out of state and switched to a local PCP but didn't experience the quality of her expertise. So, needless to say I made sure she was my PCP again. I've had a lot of different doctors in my life but none have given the quality she has. The value of her medical knowledge, her quick and expansive thinking, her sincerity, her care, and her compassion is truly remarkable and important to me. The medical treatment she provides shows she genuinely cares. The best doctor I've ever had.
