Dr Lutze always takes time to listen to me and answers my questions.
  Aug 29, 2023
In general she is a good provider but refers to a lot of specialist with no results and no follow up steps so you spend lots of money without any outcome or really anything. I'd prefer she would put quality of life over lab results.

The visit went very well and the staff was great. I couldn't ask for a better, but filling out the pre-visit forms on my iPad was disastrous. It took me three tries and about two hours. Time to get them filled out. I kept getting kicked out and had to start over From the beginning.

Dr. Cara Lutze is a new provider for me, and I am grateful because she seems so kind, caring, empathetic, and a great listener. She is the first doctor I have had, that actually records correct chart notes, and office visits notes based on what was truly said in the appointment. If you read all your providers office visit notes & chart notes regularly, then you would know just how rare that is. I feel blessed to have her take over my care.
  Mar 1, 2023
Dr Lutze listens. Not in a hurry. The lab is good, short waits and techs good at drawing blood. Referrals are moot since most are not taking new patients. The telephone is a struggle getting through to some physicians. Parking lot Is good access. Lab results including history and charts is impressive, particularly showing high and low normal ranges.
