What Our Members Have To Say
Terre Haute, IN
My visit saved me from a trip to the ER!
Lafayette, IN
I LOVE THE NEW CLINIC!It is run so much more professionally. They always seems to have “same-day-appointments” or work you in for things that crop up and need attention.They are efficient but best of all – they do not make you wait in the exam room for 30 to 40 minutes before the Dr./Nurse Practitioner comes in. They respect the value of your time.
Terre Haute, IN
During a routine visit for a cold & cough, suggested an EKG be done, due to shortness of breath. After the EKG, I then went on to have a Heart Cath, and am scheduled for triple bypass surgery. Am so thankful for all the staff and grateful that we as employees have the Wellness Center and are under such great care. Thanks!
Plainfield, IN
Great overall experience! I was in (including filling out the paperwork) and out in under 20 minutes with free medication to take care of my cough. Outstanding!
Terre Haute, IN
This is the first clinic I have been to that everyone was friendly; I actually like it a lot better than my original doctors office. A lot cleaner and seems to explain more to me and ask more questions so that I understand and feel better when leaving. THANK YOU!

Merrillville, IN
I was early for appointment and they seen me right away. I was feeling awful and doc took her time with me. Explained everything. She made me feel like I was important. The other workers were friendly and explained how I would feel after breathing treatment and how the shot I got would work.

I love this clinic. I trust the provider, and he is very friendly, and patient (even with my young children). I would choose the Wellness for Life Clinic before my family doctor every time.

The clinic has gone above and beyond what I have experienced elsewhere. I was seen same day and also received my xray same day to an outside clinic. Everyone in the clinic is professional and ready to answer any questions. They always have a smile for you. thanks for being here.
Valparaiso, IN
I've learned so much from the excellent staff at the WFL clinic. Lab work goes into more detail than any previous doc ever did, and the NP is phenomenal. Very pleased with the support and detailed info that I've received, and I'm now looking forward to working with the wellness coach after doing the baseline survey with the machine that measures body fat and muscle mass. It's a tremendous resource to offer to patients.
