Patient Reviews
Apr 22, 2021
K. Tammela was my OBGYN for about 10 years. Delivered all 3 of my children and provided prenatal care for me. She was so patient, kind, and has a calming personality. I never ever felt rushed, even when I knew she just returned from delivery a baby or checking in on another patient. She always made me a priority no matter what. It was always clear on my next steps and options and educated me or provided resources when I asked questions. I was referred to her through my mother who saw her when she started in Green Bay. I truly miss her and have always recommended anyone to her care!
