Outstanding caring Dr. Gifted hands. Great communications. So sorry he is retiring. Others will be without.
Dr. Warme is the best. [...]He is only one of two that showed true care and compassion for my issue. He really listened and did not talk down to me or dismiss me. He talk WITH me. I finally felt truly heard.[...]
Dr Winston Warm is above exceptional. The personal warmth and professionalism exceeded excellence. I've never had such all around positive care as I experienced with him. I always left the appointment feeling peaceful, hopeful and confident heading in the right medical direction. He Is thorough and clear with his explanations empowering me to make the right decisions as a patient. Ive shared my experience with everyone and encouraged them to consider the UW's Surgeons, Health Care Providers and Medical Teams for their medical care. Thank you each one for the amazing care I received.
Dr Warme is great!
I was very fortunate to have a very professional and extremely competent doctor who I was confident understood what I needed to get me back to full strength and health. I was very blessed with this journey through the medical maze. Doctor warme and all the personnel that I had interactions with, made me feel like I was in a good place for surgery if I had to be in a place like that. I felt like the doctor really had my best interests in mind.
