I really like the care I get from Dr. Wigger. He is honest, straightforward and cares. I have been seeing him since 2009 and determine my insurance coverage on whether or not he's in network.

Dr. Wigger took the time to go over meds list and explain any additions or deletions. He spent the time needed to discuss a long hospital and rehab facility stay. We love Dr. Wigger.
