She is smart and kind and I would recommend her to anyone seeking a new primary care provider.

      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.
