Dr. Karlee Ausk is a life-saver and truly a guardian Angel. She provides first-class care and life-saving support to me. I love her and hate to think of how bad I would feel without her support and care.

Dr Ausk is one of the very best of the best doctors I've had in my lifetime (and I'm 80 years old, and I've seen doctors constantly throughout my life.) Dr Ausk is exceptional in every way. She deserves the highest praise for her knowledge, her manner, the respect she shows me as a patient, her intelligence, her expertise and knowledge, her ability to communicate, she has the highest respect for listening to me, and she truly cares about me as a patient, a person, and she works exceptionally well with her entire staff. Thank you, Dr Ausk. May your life be filled with blessings. This opinion I've posted is from me and my wife.
