She talks a bit fast. She's down to earth. I enjoyed our encounter because she was encouraging.
Very knowledgeable. Could have spent more time explaining reasons for testing.
La mejor
The Doctor I saw was rude, did not explain anything to me clearly, did not want my family history when I asked. Was very short with me, and told me I was never diagnosed with an illness I have been diagnosed for over 10 years.
She's very knowledgeable, direct, and no nonsense in figuring out what's wrong.
Great
Excelente todo me lo explica muy bien

Went about and beyond with there care
Always excellent visit , I love Dr Strahle, very kind and caring
Wonderful care and personality!
Thorough!!! She did a quick hands on exam. Some docs act timid like they don't want to touch a black person. This young doc was all in 100% committed when looking and listening.
As a new patient who waited months for my initial appointment I was disappointed my first visit. Im from over 2 hours away and the Doctor didn't review my records or prepare in any way. Then she said she couldn't access them. I had them electronically sent as well as brought a disk. She refused the disk. Said she could take it. My follow up was more of the same. She still hadn't reviewed my records and seemed dismiss me. I expressed my concerns and told her it was sad woman are treated this way especially by other women. She was short with me trying to explain my symptoms and I left feeling defeated.
My recent visit was my 2nd time seeing her. I wasn't impressed the first time and thought I would try again and still not impressed. She seemed to be all over the place and not able to focus. It appeared she really didn't have good bedside manner as a doctor especially with someone who has a chronic illness. The visit seemed very rushed and lack of empathy to what was going on with me.
Dr Strahle is always e and explains everything clearly
Warm and friendly and thorough
