Dr Pugar put me at ease right away. We addressed my recent hospital visit prompted by a fall on December 26th. My family members noticed some forgetfulness since the fall and also even some before the fall. After a detailed discuShow moression, Dr Pugar suggested some alternatives to explore the reasons why I am forgetting things. He suggested o have a PET SCAN and an MRI to see if there is anything physically that could be causing the new things my family & I have identified. Most especially, could this be the beginning of Alzheimer’s or Dementia? We decided I should let Dr Pugar do some testing on me to identify if any of of these issues could be something more serious. Dr was very straightforward and informative. He put me at ease and discussed why he thought I should go ahead and have the tests. His office will reach out to me to set up the testing. Thank you for making me feel so confident about what’s coming next. I think I’m in very good hands with Dr Pugar and his staff. Thank you so much! Sincerely, Suzie Roselius

Regular office visit. Working with Dr. Pugar to determine what the next step is to address the progression of the Parkinson disease.
Dr Johnson is an excellent listener and diagnostician. I am so blessed to have her!
Very nice and confident in her assessment. Even though she disagrees with Dr. Gleason, she didn’t hesitate to express it. Will follow with the night splits and go from there.
Excellent visit with Dr. Pugar. All my concerns were addressed & future plans were reassuring & hopeful.
Fast, courteous visit. Through discussion with Dr. Pugar concerning current status and future plans. The service and treatment could not be better. Ten out of ten in every way
