Dr. Funke was very decisive and forward thinking in her treatment direction. Presented a clearly understood course of action including followup of hospital admission. She was fantastic in getting the care I needed.

My daughter and I were especially impressed with Dr. Funke. She had obviously prepared for my visit and was knowledgeable about what was happening and what needs to happen going forward. Of course, it helped that she did not see a need for further testing at this time which I was hoping would happen. My primary care physician was also impressed with her after reading the medical notes stating that several times during a followup visit with him.

One amazing physician. Helped me breathe better than I have in months and referred me in the right direction by doing tests others had not. All in a calm and kind fashion by listening and explaining. Absolutely the best

Outstanding in all respects. It was my first meeting with Dr. Funke and I was immediately impressed with her in-depth knowledge of my pulmonary issues and prior test results. Dr. Funke understood both my pulmonary history but my other medical issues which may contribute to those issues. During our in person meeting Dr. Funke took the time to review the prior tests, explained what what they meant individually and collectively, and discussed in terms that I could understand what the next steps would be. I am very confident that Dr. Funke has my best interests in mind.
